Abstract

Notation for a matrix, where a ij is the element in the ith row and the jth column. The matrix has order m × n. If m = n, the matrix is square of order n. An upper triangular matrix. (All elements below the diagonal are 0.) The transpose of A(see (19.11)) is called lower triangular.

  • Most of the formulas are standard and can be found in almost any linear algebra text, e.g. Fraleigh and Beauregard (1995) or Lang (1987). See also Sydsæter and Hammond (2005) and Sydsæter et al. (2005). For (19.26)–(19.29), see e.g. Faddeeva (1959). For generalized inverses, see Magnus and Neudecker (1988). A standard reference is Gantmacher (1959).
