I would like to create an operation that checks if the elements of the row are 0 and eliminate the respective row and column associated with the row matrix. If if the lines have at least one non-zero element, then the matrix is copied as is. See figure below enter image description here Suppose I have a list of matrices that increases in size, as for example

    list={{{0, 0}, {1, 0}}, {{1, 1, 1}, {0, 1, 0}, {1, 1, 1}}, {{0, 0, 0, 
   0}, {1, 0, 1, 1}, {1, 0, 0, 1}, {0, 1, 1, 0}}, {{0, 1, 1, 1, 
   1}, {1, 0, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 1, 0, 1, 1}, {1, 1, 0, 0, 1}, {0, 1, 1, 1,
    0}}, {{0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 
   0}, {1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1}, {0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 
   0}}, {{0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1}, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1}, {0, 0, 0, 1, 
   1, 0, 1}, {0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0}}, {{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1}, {1, 0,
    0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1}, {0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    0}, {0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1}, {1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 
   0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}}, {{0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 
   0, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0}, {1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 
   0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1}, {0, 
   0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 
   0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}}, {{0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 
   0, 1, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1}, {1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 
   0, 1, 1}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 
   0, 1}, {0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0}, {1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 
   1}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 
   0}, {0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0}}}

Could someone help me apply the rule to that list? Thanks in advance.

  • $\begingroup$ Note that in your sample list all the elements of all the diagonals are 0 (check it with Diagonal /@ list), so your output would be empty for each matrix $\endgroup$

I would do it this way: 1) find the position on the elements equal to $1$ on the diagonal, 2) select the corresponding rows and columns.

operate[mat_] := With[{pos = Flatten@Position[Diagonal@mat, 1]}, mat[[pos, pos]]]
operate@{{1, 0}, {1, 0}} 
(* {{1}} *)
operate@{{1, 0, 1}, {1, 0, 1}, {0, 0, 1}}
(* {{1, 1}, {0, 1}} *)
operate@{{0, 0, 1, 1}, {1, 1, 0, 1}, {0, 1, 1, 0}, {1, 0, 1, 0}}
(* {{1, 0}, {1, 1}} *)
operate/@list
(* {{}, {{1, 1, 1}, {0, 1, 0}, {1, 1, 1}}, {}, {}, {}, {}, {}, {}, {}} *)

Edit The question has been changed (replacing "diagonal" with row) so of course this answer no longer makes sense...

A bit messy, but it should work:

process[m_] := Block[{t = m, temp, ind},
  temp = Position[Diagonal[t], 0];
  ind = temp - Range[0, Length@temp - 1];
  ((t = Transpose[Drop[Transpose[Drop[t, #]], #]]) & /@ ind)[[-1]]
  ]


process[{{1, 0}, {1, 0}}]

{{1}}

process[{{1, 0, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 1, 1, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 0}}]

{{1, 0}, {0, 1}}
