Graham and Winkler derived a formula for the determinant of the distance matrix of a full-dimensional set of n+1 points {x0,x1,,xn} in the Hamming cube Hn=({0,1}n,1). In this article we derive a formula for the determinant of the distance matrix D of an arbitrary set of m+1 points {x0,x1,,xm} in Hn. It follows from this more general formula that det(D)0 if and only if the vectors x0,x1,,xm are affinely independent. Specializing to the case m=n provides new insights into the original formula of Graham and Winkler. A significant difference that arises between the cases m<n and m=n is noted. We also show that if D is the distance matrix of an unweighted tree on n+1 vertices, then D11,1=2n where 1 is the column vector all of whose coordinates are 1. Finally, we derive a new proof of Murugan’s classification of the subsets of Hn that have strict 1-negative type.

海明立方体子集的距离矩阵

Graham和Winkler推导了一个公式的维矩阵的行列式的行列式 ñ+1个 点数 {X0X1个Xñ} 在汉明立方体 Hñ={01个}ñ1个。在本文中,我们得出了距离矩阵行列式的公式d 任意一组 +1个 点数 {X0X1个X}Hñ。从这个更一般的公式可以得出td0 当且仅当向量 X0X1个X亲密独立。专案=ñ提供了有关Graham和Winkler原始公式的新见解。案例之间存在重大差异<ñ=ñ被注意到。我们还表明,如果d 是上的未加权树的距离矩阵 ñ+1个 顶点,然后 d-1个1个1个=2个ñ 在哪里 1个 是所有坐标均为1的列向量。最后,我们推导了Murugan对的子集分类的新证明。 Hñ 具有严格的1负数类型。
