A short note on extreme points of certain polytopes

We give a short proof of Mirsky’s result regarding the extreme points of the convex polytope of doubly substochastic matrices via Birkhoff’s Theorem and the doubly stochastic completion of doubly sub-stochastic matrices. In addition, we give an alternative proof of the extreme points of the convex p...
