| A square matrix ''B'' of size ''n'' is doubly stochastic (or ''bistochastic'') if all its entries are non-negative [[real number]]s and each of its rows and columns sum to 1. It is unistochastic if there exists a unitary matrix ''U'' such that
| |
| | |
| :<math> B_{ij}=|U_{ij}|^2 \text{ for } i,j=1,\dots,n. \, </math>
| |
| | |
| All 2-by-2 doubly stochastic matrices are unistochastic and [[orthostochastic matrix|orthostochastic]], but for larger ''n'' it is not the case.
| |
| Already for <math> n=3 </math> there exist a [[Doubly stochastic matrix|bistochastic matrix]] B which is not unistochastic:
| |
| :<math>
| |
| B= \frac{1}{2}
| |
| \begin{bmatrix}
| |
| 1 & 1 & 0 \\
| |
| 0 & 1 & 1 \\
| |
| 1 & 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}
| |
| </math>
| |
| since any two vectors with moduli equal to the square root of the entries of two columns (rows)
| |
| of B cannot be made orthogonal by a suitable choice of phases.
| |
| | |
| == Properties ==
| |
| * the set of unistochastic matrices contains all [[permutation matrix|permutation matrices]]
| |
| * for <math> n \ge 3 </math> this set is not convex
| |
| * for <math> n =3 </math> the set of unistochastic matrices is [[star shaped]].
| |
| * for <math> n =3 </math> the relative volume of the set of unistochastic matrices with respect to the [[Birkhoff polytope]] of [[doubly stochastic matrix|bistochastic matrices]] is <math> 8\pi^2/105 \approx 75.2 \% </math>

I would like to introduce myself to you, I am Andrew and my wife doesn't like it at all. To play lacross is 1 of the things she loves most. For a while I've been in Alaska but I will have to transfer in a year or two. He functions as a bookkeeper.
