Formulas and Key Relations
1. Core idea and notation
A = [a_ij]_(m×n), 1 ≤ i ≤ m, 1 ≤ j ≤ n, i, j ∈ N
Number of elements in an m×n matrix = mn
2. Types of matrices
Column matrix: m×1
Row matrix: 1×n
Square matrix: m = n
Diagonal matrix: b_ij = 0 when i ≠ j
Scalar matrix: b_ij = 0 when i ≠ j, b_ij = k when i = j
3. Equality of matrices
Two matrices A and B are equal only if they have the same order and a_ij = b_ij for all i, j
4. Addition, subtraction and scalar multiplication
A + B = [a_ij + b_ij]_(m×n)
D = A - B = A + (-1)B, d_ij = a_ij - b_ij
kA = k[a_ij]_(m×n) = [k(a_ij)]_(m×n)
-A = (-1)A
