摘要
Let D(m, n) be the set of all the integer points in the m-dilate of the Birkhoff polytope of doubly-stochastic n x n matrices. In this paper we find the sharp upper bound on the tropical determinant over the set D(m, n). We define a version of the tropical determinant where the maximum over all the transversals in a matrix is replaced with the minimum and then find the sharp lower bound on thus defined tropical determinant over D(m, n).
