对于整数n> 0,设f(n)是M的最大全0或全1子方阵的行数,它在所有n× n 0/1-矩阵M上最小化.因此f(n)= O(log n)。但让我们固定一个矩阵H,并定义f H(n)是相同的,在所有n× n 0/1-矩阵M上最小化,使得M和它的补矩阵(也就是说,将所有的0变为1,反之亦然)都不包含H作为子矩阵。已知f H(n)≥ ε nc,其中c,ε> 0是依赖于H的常数.什么时候可以取c= 1?如果是,则H和它的补图中的一个一定是无圈矩阵(即对应的二部图是森林)。Korándi,Pach,and Tomon [6]证明了匡威的情况,即对于每个非循环矩阵H,f H(n)在n中是线性的;并且他们对某些只有两行的矩阵H证明了这一点。他们的猜想仍然是公开的,但我们证明了对每个非循环矩阵H,f H(n)= n 1− o(1);并且确实存在一个0/1-子矩阵,它或者是Ω(n)× n 1− o(1),或者是n 1− o(1)× Ω(n)。
For integer n> 0, let f (n) be the number of rows of the largest all-0 or all-1 square submatrix of M, minimized over all n× n 0/1-matrices M. Thus f (n)= O (log⁡ n). But let us fix a matrix H, and define f H (n) to be the same, minimized over all n× n 0/1-matrices M such that neither M nor its complement (that is, change all 0's to 1's and vice versa) contains H as a submatrix. It is known that f H (n)≥ ε n c, where c, ε> 0 are constants depending on H. When can we take c= 1? If so, then one of H and its complement must be an acyclic matrix (that is, the corresponding bipartite graph is a forest). Korándi, Pach, and Tomon [6] conjectured the converse, that f H (n) is linear in n for every acyclic matrix H; and they proved it for certain matrices H with only two rows. Their conjecture remains open, but we show f H (n)= n 1− o (1) for every acyclic matrix H; and indeed there is a 0/1-submatrix that is either Ω (n)× n 1− o (1) or n 1− o (1)× Ω (n).
