Is the Birkhoff von Neumann Theorem true for infinite matrices
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 1 down vote favorite 1 The Birkhoff von Neumann Theorem states that any $ntimes n$ doubly stochastic matrix is a convex sum of permutation matrices. Is this true for $mathbbN times mathbbN$ matrices as well?
