MATRICES A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers or variables. We often use bold non-italic capital letters to refer to them, e.g., Q = 3 2 2 0 12.5 12.7, A = a 1,1 a 1,2 a 1,n a 2,1 a 2,2 a 2,n. a m,1 a m,2 a m,n Terminology these matrices consist of 6 elements the order (or size is) 3 2 respectively m n when m = n, the matrix is a square matrix when m n, the matrix is rectangular 4

MATRICES.and even more on notation [recall Mathematics is a language ] You may use either brackets: or Elements are identified by indices: a ij or a i,j We define A = a ij m n as the matrix of order m n matrix with elements a ij, i = 1, m, j = 1,, n: a 11 a 12 a 1n a 21 a 22 a 2n A = a m1 a m2 a mn 5

MATRICES Conventions: element a row index,column index order m row n column when no ambiguity you write a ij instead of a i,j 6

MATRICES Conventions: element a row index,column index order m row n column when no ambiguity you write a ij instead of a i,j Note the order of the indices 7

MATRICES Conventions: element a row index,column index order m row n column when no ambiguity you write a ij instead of a i,j In Q = 3 2 2 0 12.5 12.7 the element q 2,1 refers to the cell at row 2 and column 1 so the value is 2 while q 1,2 is in row 1 and column 2 and has value 2 The order of Q is 3 2, not 2 3 8

SPECIAL MATRICES Zero matrix: 0 = 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 for a matrix of any order 12

SPECIAL MATRICES Zero matrix: 0 = 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 for a matrix of any order 1 0 0 0 1 0 Identity matrix: I = 0 0 1 for a square matrix (so, m = n) 13

OPERATIONS WITH MATRICES We can define some basic operations with matrices, similar to the basic operations with vectors Addition A + B, through a + b ij = a ij + b ij Multiplication ca, through ca ij = c a ij Negative matrix A, through a ij = a ij Subtraction A B, through a b ij = a ij b ij Equality A = B, through a ij = b ij 14

EXERCISE 2 Given is A = 2 1 3 0 and B = 0 2 1 3. Find 2A B. 17

MATRIX MULTIPLICATION Let A and B be two matrices, of order m p respectively p n. We define the matrix product AB as p AB ij = k=1 a ik b kj, i = 1,, m, j = 1,, n alternatively written as A B but do not write A B The matrices A Element (i,j) and is given B must by be of row i times column equal order j 20

MATRIX MULTIPLICATION Let A and B be two matrices, of order m p respectively p n. We define the matrix product AB as AB ij = k=1 alternatively written as A B but do not write A B p a ik b kj, i = 1,, m, j = 1,, n Notice: the result of multiplication of two matrices is a matrix while the inner product of two vectors is number. 21

MATRIX MULTIPLICATION Illustration: AB 1,2 = σ2 k=1 a 1,k b k,2 = a 1,1 b 1,2 + a 1,2 b 2,2 AB 3,3 = σ2 k=1 a 3,k b k,3 = a 3,1 b 1,3 + a 3,2 b 2,3 22

MATRIX MULTIPLICATION Illustration: AB 1,2 = σ2 k=1 a 1,k b k,2 = a 1,1 b 1,2 + a 1,2 b 2,2 AB 3,3 = σ2 k=1 a 3,k b k,3 = a 3,1 b 1,3 + a 3,2 b 2,3 Recall: row times column 23

MATRIX MULTIPLICATION Notice the orders of the matrices: A m p B p n = AB m n so #columns in A should match #rows in B (here p) and #rows in AB is #rows in A (here m) and #columns in AB is #columns in B (here n) Let s check: given a matrix A of order 3 3 and a matrix B of order 3 2, then AB exists and is of order 3 2 BA does not exist what about AA? and BB? and AB AB? 25

MORE OPERATIONS WITH MATRICES Note that every matrix operation must be explicitly defined In matrix algebra mathematicians try to find a definition that is useful (why AB is useful will become clear later on) reduces to the similar operation for scalars Note that no all scalar operations have an extension to matrices, for example, ln A, 1, A A all are not defined. 39
