摘要
We show that the maximal number of equal entries in a totally positive (resp. totally nonsingular) n-by-n matrix is theta(n(4/3)) (resp. theta(n(3/2))). Relationships with point-line incidences in the plane, Bruhat order of permutations, and TP completability are also presented. We also examine the number and positionings of equal 2-by-2 minors in a 2-by-n TP matrix, and give a relationship between the location of equal 2-by-2 minors and outerplanar graphs.
