Topic: Adjugate


  
  Adjugate
In linear algebra, the adjugate of a square matrix is a matrix which plays a role similar to the inverse of a matrix; it can however be defined for any square matrix without the need to perform any divisions.
Suppose R is a commutative ring and A is an n-by-n matrix with entries from R.
The adjugate appears in the formula of the derivative of the determinant.

 PlanetMath: adjugate
The adjugate is also known as the classical adjoint, to distinguish it from the usual usage of “adjoint” which denotes the conjugate transpose operation.
Thus, the adjugate operation is closely related to the matrix inverse.
This is version 14 of adjugate, born on 2002-11-17, modified 2006-09-07.

It can be computed without ever using division, so potentially the adjugate can be useful in applications where an inverse matrix does not exist.
Unfortunately, the adjugate matrix is sometimes called the adjoint matrix, particularly in the older literature.
Because of the confusion of multiple meanings of the word adjoint, in the first printing of PVI I avoided the use of the word and substituted the definition, ``conjugate transpose''.

 Adjugate matrix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In linear algebra, the adjugate or classical adjoint of a square matrix is a matrix which plays a role similar to the inverse of a matrix; it can however be defined for any square matrix without the need to perform any divisions.
The adjugate has sometimes been called the "adjoint", but that terminology is ambiguous.
That is, the adjugate of A is the transpose of the "cofactor matrix" (C

 MATLAB Central File Exchange - Adjugate (adjoint) of a Square Matrix   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Calculates the adjugate (adjoint) matrix for a square matrix.
For any n x n matrix, A, with real or complex-valued elements, whether singular or not, its adjugate (also known as its adjoint) matrix, adj(A), is calculated.
The definition of the adjugate (adjoint) of matrix A is a matrix in which its element in the i-th row and j-th column is the cofactor of the element of A in the j-th row and i-th column.

A typical pitfall for the student is to discover that Maple (or AXIOM or whatever) can solve matrix systems with symbolic entries, and then to attempt to use first-year linear algebra concepts such as matrix inverses to solve problems with lots of parameters.
For example, a general three-by-three matrix system has nine parameters, and each entry in its adjugate is a combination of four of these parameters; the determinant has 6 terms each containing three parameters.
Many students (and faculty) get annoyed when the computer `goes away' when they ask it to find the symbolic inverse of, say, an eight-by-eight system, little dreaming that it is they who are being unreasonable, because the size of the answer grows more than exponentially with the dimension of the problem.

The two ways that are normally used are either row operations or finding the adjugate matrix.
We write the cofactors in the transposed positions as shown, and use the rule of signs with alternating + and - signs.
The adjugate matrix is then: [A1 A2 A3

Abstract: Fisher and Yates established twenty-two transformation sets for 6x6 Latin squares in 1934, which have been shown to belong to 12 adjugate classes.
Equivalence between the adjugate classes of Fisher and Yates and 12 species of Schonhardt has also been shown.
Keywords: Adjugate squares, automorphism group, Graeco-Latin square, Latin squares, transformation set.
