Alternate minimization and doubly stochastic matrices

Abstract

Sinkhorn's alternative minimization algorithm applied to a positive n× n matrix converges to a doubly stochastic matrix. If the algorithm, applied to a 2× 2 matrix, converges in a finite number of iterations, then it converges in at most two iterations, and the structure of such matrices is determined.
