    Summary: The Littlewood-Offord problem concerns the number of subsums of a set of vectors that fall in a given convex set. We present a discrete variation of the Littlewood-Offord problem where we estimate the number of subsums that are \((0,1)\)-vectors. We then utilize this to find the maximum order of graphs with given rank or corank. The rank of a graph \(G\) is the rank of its adjacency matrix \(A(G)\) and the corank of \(G\) is the rank of \(A(G)+I\).
