The factors of a design matrix
AbstractLet X and Y be integral matrices of order n > 1 and suppose that these matrices satisfy the matrix equation XY = B, where B is a matrix with k in the n main diagonal positions and λ and μ in all other positions. Suppose further that k, λ, and μ are nonnegative integers and that λ occurs exactly the same number of times in each line of B and ...
