Abstract

A complete and simple parametrization of the set of extremal elements in the convex set of all correlation matrices of order n is presented. The set Enk of extremal elements of rank k and order n is nonempty if and only if k(k+1)≤2n. Modulo the symmetric group Sn-action, it is shown that Enk has an 'algebraic bundle structure'.
