Conjugate Transpose - Properties of The Conjugate Transpose

Properties of The Conjugate Transpose

  • (A + B)* = A* + B* for any two matrices A and B of the same dimensions.
  • (r A)* = r*A* for any complex number r and any matrix A. Here r* refers to the complex conjugate of r.
  • (AB)* = B*A* for any m-by-n matrix A and any n-by-p matrix B. Note that the order of the factors is reversed.
  • (A*)* = A for any matrix A.
  • If A is a square matrix, then det(A*) = (det A)* and tr(A*) = (tr A)*
  • A is invertible if and only if A* is invertible, and in that case we have (A*)−1 = (A−1)*.
  • The eigenvalues of A* are the complex conjugates of the eigenvalues of A.
  • for any m-by-n matrix A, any vector x in and any vector y in . Here denotes the standard complex inner product on and .

    A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    We have to transpose ourselves into this impressionability of mind, into this sensitivity to tears and spiritual repentance, into this susceptibility, before we can judge how colorful and intensive life was then.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
