TL;DR: A survey of characterizations of nonsingular M -matrices from economics and mathematics literatures can be found in this article, where characterizations are grouped together in terms of their relations to the properties of (1) positivity of principal minors, (2) inverse-positivity and splittings, (3) stability and semipositivity and diagonal dominance.

TL;DR: In this paper, the inverse M -matrix problem is formulated as follows: given a positive n × n matrix A =(a i j ) which has been scaled to have unit diagonal elements and off-diagonal elements which satisfy 0 y ⩽ a i j = a j = x A exists and is an M-matrix, then define an interpolation parameter s via x 2 = sy +(1− s ) y 2 ; then B is an m-additive matrix if s −1 ⩾ n −2.
