Adjugate Matrix

Adjugate Matrix

In linear algebra, the adjugate or classical adjoint (occasionally referred to as adjunct) of a square matrix is the transpose of the cofactor matrix.

The adjugate has sometimes been called the "adjoint", but that terminology is ambiguous. Today, "adjoint" of a matrix normally refers to its corresponding adjoint operator, which is its conjugate transpose.

Famous quotes containing the word matrix:

    As all historians know, the past is a great darkness, and filled with echoes. Voices may reach us from it; but what they say to us is imbued with the obscurity of the matrix out of which they come; and try as we may, we cannot always decipher them precisely in the clearer light of our day.
    Margaret Atwood (b. 1939)
