Examples and Special Cases
The following are special cases of band matrices:
- Diagonal matrices.
- Tridiagonal matrices.
- Pentadiagonal matrices.
- Upper and lower triangular matrices.
- Upper and lower Hessenberg matrices.
- Block-diagonal matrices.
- Shift matrices and shear matrices.
- Matrices in Jordan normal form.
- A skyline matrix, also called "variable band matrix" is a generalization of band matrix
The inverses of Lehmer matrices are constant tridiagonal matrices, and are thus band matrices.

Famous quotes containing the words examples, special and/or cases:
“No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.”
—André Breton (1896–1966)
“If there is a special Hell for writers it would be in the forced contemplation of their own works, with all the misconceptions, the omissions, the failures that any finished work of art implies.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“After all, the practical reason why, when the power is once in the hands of the people, a majority are permitted, and for a long period continue, to rule is not because they are most likely to be in the right, nor because this seems fairest to the minority, but because they are physically the strongest. But a government in which the majority rule in all cases cannot be based on justice, even as far as men understand it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
