Obviously, if the ranks of two matrices are equal, they have the same normal forms, and so they are equivalent; conversely, if two matrices are equivalent, their ranks are equal too. That is : Theory: matrices A and B are equivalent if and only if r(A)=r(B). !!! Please remember:we need to figure out if the ranks of matrices are equal only and we will know if they are equivalent. Non-degenerate Matrix Definition: if the rank of square matrix A is equal to its order, we call A a non-degenerate matrix. Otherwise, degenerate matrix. ( non-degenerate non-singular; degenerate singular ) E----non-degenerate matrix O----degenerate matrix Theory: A is a non-degenerate matrix, then the normal form of A is an identity matrix E with the same size The rank of matrix is an important numerical character of matrix.

Corollary 1: the following propositions are equivalent: Prove:

Corollary 2 : Matrices A and B are equivalent if and only if there are m-order and n-order non-Degenerate matrices P,Q, such that And we also have : If P,Q are non-degenerate, then r(A) = r(PA) = r(PAQ) = r(AQ) e.g. The Inverse of a Matrix

Definition : if A is an n-order square matrix, and there is another n-order square matrix B such that AB=BA=E, we say that B is an inverse of A, and A is invertible. ( 1 ) The inverse of matrix is unique. Let B,C are all inverses of A, thenB=EB=(CA)B=C(AB)=CE=C Denote the inverse of A as ( 2 ) Not all square matrices are invertible. For example is not invertible. It’s impossible. So A is not invertible. The questions to answer: 1. When the matrix is invertible? 2. How to find the inverse?

Method 3: use the definition. Guest :
16
Method 4: prove B is the inverse of A by definition.

When we solve matrix equations, remember that before figuring out the solutions, reduce the matrices at first.
