摘要
Let A be an n x n matrix with non-negative entries and no entry in (0, 1). We prove that there exist integers r, s with 0 less than or equal to r less than or equal to s less than or equal to 2(n) such that A(r) less than or equal to A(s). We prove that 2(n) cannot be replaced with e root(n log n). We also give an application to the theory of formal languages. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
