Matrix Inversion
Contents
Definition
For some matrices A, the inverse matrix (A-1) is that which can be multiplied by the original matrix to produce the identity matrix.
Not all matrices have an inverse matrix. If A-1 exists, then A is invertible and non-singular.
Properties
For a permutation matrix P, the inverse is also the transpose: P-1 = PT.
For a square matrix A, the left inverse is the same as the right inverse. AA-1 = A-1A = I
Calculation
Consider the below system, which shows an unknown matrix (A-1) multiplied by a known matrix (A) creating an identity matrix (I). The inverse matrix is calculated with elimination and reverse elimination. Augment The elimination proceeds as: The reverse elimination proceeds as: -1
