 Semi-inverses
is, in a sense, a matrix “halfway between” a nonsingular matrix A and its inverse.
            As a special case, for a one-by-one matrix A = (a) regarded as isomorphic to a scalar, for a > 0 we may observe that since matrix inversion corresponds in this case to reciprocation, the result of applying the operator Φ may be called the (principal) “semi-reciprocal” of the number a.
Also, since the semi-inverse of any matrix in U can be polynomially generated, and since it is well known that when λ is an eigenvalue of a matrix A and p(x) is any polynomial it follows that p(λ) is an eigenvalue of p(A), we have:

 The nullity theorem
The theorem can be seen as an extension of the standard formula for calculating the inverse of a matrix, for which each element is determined by a minor in the original matrix.
This lemma already implies the nullity theorem for square subblocks and for nullities equal to 1, since this case is equivalent with the vanishing of a determinant.
In the next section we will use the previously obtained results about the ranks of complementary blocks of a matrix and its inverse to prove the rank properties of the inverse for some classes of structured rank matrices.

 Inverse of a Square Matrix
In the first case, it is said to be singular and in the second case nonsingular.

 Special Matrix Types
It is almost always true that many of the zero entries in a matrix needn't be stored.
A matrix with a small bandwidth will thus require little storage, enabling one to consider bigger problems on any finite-memory machine.
Furthermore, many matrices with small bandwidths have, in addition, other nice properties, for example, strong diagonal dominance, etc. Researchers spend much time optimizing codes that are storage efficient and also have nice mathematical properties which enable them to produce more efficient solvers.

 Some Theorems and Finding the Inverse of a Matrix   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Theorem: A matrix is nonsingular if and only if its GJSF is the identity matrix.
Technically, this is only a left inverse, since we only have multiplication on the left to get I. However, we KNOW A is nonsingular, so Elem must be the "real" inverse as well (this is not as clear if it is not known in advance that A is nonsingular).
Theorem: Two matrices A and B are row equivalent if and only if B=EA for some nonsingular matrix E. Proof: If A and B are row equivalent, then there is a finite sequence of elementary row operations leading from A to B. As we saw above, this led to the matrix E (Elem), producing B=EA.
