Symmetric Matrix - Symmetrizable Matrix

Symmetrizable Matrix

An n-by-n matrix A is said to be symmetrizable if there exist an invertible diagonal matrix D and symmetric matrix S such that A = DS. The transpose of a symmetrizable matrix is symmetrizable, for (DS)T = D−T(DTSD). A matrix A = (aij) is symmetrizable if and only if the following conditions are met:

Famous quotes containing the word matrix:

    “The matrix is God?”
    “In a manner of speaking, although it would be more accurate ... to say that the matrix has a God, since this being’s omniscience and omnipotence are assumed to be limited to the matrix.”
    “If it has limits, it isn’t omnipotent.”
    “Exactly.... Cyberspace exists, insofar as it can be said to exist, by virtue of human agency.”
    William Gibson (b. 1948)
