Abstract
The paper describes new sufficient conditions that provide optimum to a quadratic assignment problem for a given substitution. The conditions separate out sets of matrices in the matrix space. The sets are formed by incomplete Anti-Monge matrices, which permit opposite ordering of rows and columns, and by additive monotone matrices, which are outside the class of Toeplitz matrices.
