IZhO 2021 Problem 3
Let be an integer. Elwyn is given an table filled with real numbers (each cell of the table contains exactly one number). We define a rook set as a set of cells of the table situated in distinct rows as well as in n distinct columns. Assume that, for every rook set, the sum of numbers in the cells forming the set is nonnegative. By a move, Elwyn chooses a row, a column, and a real number and then he adds to each number in the chosen row, and subtracts from each number in the chosen column (thus, the number at the intersection of the chosen row and column does not change). Prove that Elwyn can perform a sequence of moves so that all numbers in the table become nonnegative.
