Abstract

We derive a sufficient condition for a sparse random matrix with given numbers of non-zero entries in the rows and columns having full row rank. Inspired by low-density parity check codes, the family of random matrices that we investigate is very general and encompasses both matrices over finite fields and {0,1}-matrices over the rationals. The proof combines statistical physics-inspired coupling techniques with local limit arguments.
