1 Chapter 1: Matrix Algebra
1.1 Vectors and Matrices
Let a and b be two vectors, which have the same order n.
Summation of two vectors:
a1 b1 a1 + b1
a2 b2 a2 + b2
a+b= . + . = .
.. .. ..
an bn an + bn
Vector summation is:
− Commutative: a + b = b + a
− Associative: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c), where c is a vector of the same order as a and
b.

Two vectors a and b with ⟨a, b⟩ = 0 are called orthogonal.
If ⟨a, b⟩ = 0 and ∥a∥ = ∥b∥ = 1, then a and b are called orthonormal.

Let A be a n × m matrix.
− A is square if n = m.
− A is symmetric if n = m and aij = aji , i, j = 1, ..., n.
− A is diagonal if n = m and aij = 0 if i ̸= j, i, j = 1, ..., n.
Result 1
A is symmetric ⇐⇒ A = A′ .

The resulting matrix AB is of dimension n × k.
Note: The number of columns of the first matrix equals the number of rows in the sec-
ond matrix.
A and B are conformable if their orders are such that AB is defined.
Result 2
For conformable matrices, (ABC)′ = C ′ B ′ A′ .
