Abstract:
Many applications of the linear algebra method to combinatorics rely on bounds on ranks of matrices with few distinct entries and constant diagonal. In this talk, I will explain some of these applications. I will also present a classification of sets \textit{L} for which no low-rank matrix with entries in \textit{L} exists.
