Description
Summary:In this paper, we develop and enrich the theory of nonnegative tensors. We define the sign nonsingular tensors and establish the relationship between the combinatorial determinant and the permanent of nonnegative tensors. We generalize the results from doubly stochastic matrices to totally plane stochastic tensors and obtain a probabilistic algorithm for locating a positive diagonal in a nonnegative tensor under certain conditions. We form a normalization algorithm to convert some nonnegative tensors to plane stochastic tensors. We obtain a lower bound for the minimum of the axial N-index assignment problem by means of the set of plane stochastic tensors.
