    Sign-nonsingular matrices and orthogonal sign-patterns (English)
    0 references
    A sign-pattern of a (real) matrix \(A\) is the \((0,+1,-1)\)-matrix that is obtained from \(A\) in such a way that positive entries are replaced by \(1\), and negative entries by \(-1\). A square sign-pattern is said to be sign-nonsingular if any matrix with this sign-pattern is non-singular. The authors characterize the sign-nonsingular sign-patterns that can be realized by an orthogonal matrix. There are two such basic sign-patterns (of orders \(2\) and \(4\)), and the other ones can be obtained by a recursive construction. NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINE(Pages 294 and 295 are swapped).
