Although an explicit inverse is not necessary to estimate the vector of unknowns, it is the easiest way to estimate their accuracy, found in the diagonal of a matrix inverse (the posterior covariance matrix of the vector of unknowns). However, faster algorithms to compute only the diagonal entries of a matrix inverse are known in many cases. [19]
A matrix (in this case the right-hand side of the Sherman–Morrison formula) is the inverse of a matrix (in this case +) if and only if = =. We first verify that the right hand side ( Y {\displaystyle Y} ) satisfies X Y = I {\displaystyle XY=I} .
A matrix with entries in a field is invertible precisely if its determinant is nonzero. This follows from the multiplicativity of the determinant and the formula for the inverse involving the adjugate matrix mentioned below. In this event, the determinant of the inverse matrix is given by
In mathematics, specifically linear algebra, the Woodbury matrix identity – named after Max A. Woodbury [1] [2] – says that the inverse of a rank-k correction of some matrix can be computed by doing a rank-k correction to the inverse of the original matrix.
If A is invertible, the Schur complement of the block A of the matrix M is the q × q matrix defined by /:=. In the case that A or D is singular, substituting a generalized inverse for the inverses on M/A and M/D yields the generalized Schur complement.
If det(A) is nonzero, then the inverse matrix of A is = (). This gives a formula for the inverse of A, provided det(A) ≠ 0. In fact, this formula works whenever F is a commutative ring, provided that det(A) is a unit.
In other words, the matrix of the combined transformation A followed by B is simply the product of the individual matrices. When A is an invertible matrix there is a matrix A −1 that represents a transformation that "undoes" A since its composition with A is the identity matrix. In some practical applications, inversion can be computed using ...
In general, the inverse of a tridiagonal matrix is a semiseparable matrix and vice versa. [11] The inverse of a symmetric tridiagonal matrix can be written as a single-pair matrix (a.k.a. generator-representable semiseparable matrix) of the form [12] [13]
