What is a zero matrix?

Matrices of the same size, where all elements are zero, are called zero matrices. They are denoted by the symbol '0'.

What is an identity matrix?

An identity matrix is a square matrix where the diagonal elements are all 1 and the rest are 0. It is denoted by 'I' and its size is determined by 'n' (order).

What are the diagonal elements of a square matrix?

The diagonal elements of a square matrix are those elements where the row and column indices are the same. For example, in a 3x3 matrix, elements 11, 22, and 33 are the diagonal elements.

Study Notes

Introduction to Matrices

  • Matrices are rectangular arrays of numbers, symbols, or properties of mathematical objects.
  • They represent linear maps.
  • The notation Rmxn represents the collection of all m x n matrices whose entries are real numbers.

Definition of Matrices

  • A matrix is a rectangular array with m rows and n columns.
  • Matrices are usually denoted by capital letters.
  • The notation A = [aij] indicates that the matrix is composed of entries aij, located in the ith row and jth column of A.

Types of Matrices

  • Square Matrices: Matrices with the same number of rows and columns (m x n)

Zero Matrix (0)

  • A matrix with all elements equal to zero (size m x n).

Identity Matrix (I)

  • A square matrix (n x n) where all diagonal elements are 1, and all other elements are 0.
  • The identity matrix acts like the number 1 in standard arithmetic.
  • It is also known as the unit matrix.

Equality of Matrices

  • Two matrices A and B are equal if they have the same size and all their corresponding elements are equal.

Matrix Arithmetic Operations: Addition

  • Given two matrices A and B of the same size (m x n), A + B is the matrix obtained by adding the corresponding elements.
  • A + B = [aij] + [bij] = [aij + bij]

Matrix Arithmetic Operations: Scalar Multiplication

  • Given a matrix A = [aij] and a scalar t, tA is the matrix obtained by multiplying all elements of A by t.
  • tA = t[aij] = [taij]

Matrix Arithmetic Operations: Negative of a Matrix

  • The negative of a matrix A is -A, obtained by replacing each element of A with its negative.

Matrix Arithmetic Operations: Subtraction

  • For two matrices A and B of the same size, A - B is defined as subtracting the corresponding elements.
    • A - B = [aij] - [bij] = [aij - bij]

Matrix Product

  • The product AB is an m x n matrix.
  • The number of columns of A must equal the number of rows of B.

Matrix Multiplication Example

  • Shows how to multiply two matrices and obtain the result.

The Trace of a Matrix

  • For an n x n matrix A, the trace of A (trace(A)) is the sum of diagonal elements.
    • trace(A) = a11 + a22 + ... + ann = Σaii

Properties of the Trace Operations

  • Trace(A + B) = Trace(A) + Trace(B), Trace(cA) = c * Trace(A) and Trace(AB) = Trace(BA)

Power of a Matrix

  • Ak is defined as multiplying a matrix A by itself k times. A0 = I (identity matrix)

Transpose of a Matrix

  • The transpose of a matrix A (denoted as AT) is obtained by interchanging rows and columns of A.

Properties of Transposes

  • (AT)T = A
  • (A + B)T = AT + BT
  • (sA)T = sAT , where s is a scalar.

Bidiagonal Matrix

  • A square matrix with nonzero elements only on the main diagonal and the adjacent diagonals above or below.

Tridiagonal Matrix

  • A square matrix with nonzero entries along the main diagonal and the two adjacent diagonals above and below the main diagonal.

Nonsingular Matrix

  • A square matrix that has an inverse.
  • An invertible matrix is a nonsingular matrix.

Properties of the Inverse

  • (A-1)A = I = A(A-1)
  • (A-1)-1 = A
  • (AB)-1 = B-1A-1, if A is nonsingular, AT is also nonsingular and (AT)-1 = (A-1)T

Symmetric Matrix

  • A square matrix equal to its transpose (A = AT).

Skew-Symmetric Matrix

  • A square matrix whose transpose is the negative of itself (AT = −A).

Symmetric Positive Definite Matrix

  • A symmetric matrix for which, for every nonzero vector x, xTAx > 0

Symmetric Positive Semidefinite Matrix

  • A symmetric matrix with xTAx≥0

Symmetric Indefinite Matrix
