Summary:
We show that if a real $n \times n$ non-singular matrix ($n \ge m$) has all its minors of order $m-1$ non-negative and has all its minors of order $m$ which come from consecutive rows non-negative, then all $m$th order minors are non-negative, which may be considered an extension of Fekete’s lemma.
