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:
