A note on doubly stochastic graph matrices
A sharp lower bound for the smallest entries, among those corresponding to edges, of doubly stochastic matrices of trees is obtained, and the trees that attain this bound are characterized. This result is used to provide a negative answer to Merris’ question in [R. Merris, Doubly stochastic graph matrices II, Linear Multilin. Algebra 45 (1998) 275–285]. © 2005 Elsevier Inc.

متن کاملVertex degrees and doubly stochastic graph matrices
In this article, the relationship between vertex degrees and entries of the doubly stochastic graph matrix has been investigated. In particular, we present an upper bound for the main diagonal entries of a doubly stochastic graphmatrix and investigate the relations between a kind of distance for graph vertices and the vertex degrees. These results are used to answer in negative Merris’ question...
متن کاملDoubly stochastic matrices of trees
In this paper, we obtain sharp upper and lower bounds for the smallest entries of doubly stochastic matrices of trees and characterize all extreme graphs which attain the bounds. We also present a counterexample to Merris’ conjecture on relations between the smallest entry of the doubly stochastic matrix and the algebraic connectivity of a graph in [R. Merris, Doubly stochastic graph matrices I...
متن کاملRandom doubly stochastic tridiagonal matrices
Let Tn be the compact convex set of tridiagonal doubly stochastic matrices. These arise naturally in probability problems as birth and death chains with a uniform stationary distribution. We study ‘typical’ matrices T ∈ Tn chosen uniformly at random in the set Tn. A simple algorithm is presented to allow direct sampling from the uniform distribution on Tn. Using this algorithm, the elements abo...
متن کاملAn Inequality for Doubly Stochastic Matrices *
Interrelated inequalities involving doubly stochastic matrices are presented. For example, if B is an n by n doubly stochasti c matrix, x any nonnega tive vector and y = Bx, the n XIX,· •• ,x" :0:::; YIY" •• y ...
