Introduction
Sets are one of the basic building blocks for the types of objects considered in discrete mathematics.
Important for counting.
Programming languages have set operations.
Set theory is an important branch of mathematics.
Many different systems of axioms have been used to develop set theory.
Here we are not concerned with a formal set of axioms for set theory. Instead, we will use what is called naïve set theory.

Sets
A set is an unordered collection of objects.

The objects in a set are called the elements, or members of the set. A set is said to contain its elements.
The notation a ∈ A denotes that a is an element of the set A.
If a is not a member of A, write a ∉ A

Describing a Set: Roster Method
S = {a,b,c,d}
Order not important
S = {a,b,c,d} = {b,c,a,d}
Each distinct object is either a member or not; listing more than once does not change the set.
S = {a,b,c,d} = {a,b,c,b,c,d}
Elipses (…) may be used to describe a set without listing all of the members when the pattern is clear.
S = {a,b,c,d, ……,z }

Roster Method
Set of all vowels in the English alphabet:
V = {a,e,i,o,u}
Set of all odd positive integers less than 10:
O = {1,3,5,7,9}
Set of all positive integers less than 100:
S = {1,2,3,4,5,6……..98,99}
Set of all integers less than 0:
S = {…., -3,-2,-1}

Some Important Sets
N = natural numbers = {0,1,2,3….}
Z = integers = {…,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,…}
Z⁺ = positive integers = {1,2,3,…..}
R = set of real numbers
R+ = set of positive real numbers
C = set of complex numbers.
Q = set of rational numbers

Set-Builder Notation
Specify the property or properties that all members must satisfy:
S = {x | x is a positive integer less than 100,000}
O = {x | x is an odd positive integer less than 10}
O = {x ∈ Z⁺ | x is odd and x < 10} A predicate may be used: S = {x | P(x)} Example: S = {x | Prime(x)} Positive rational numbers: Q+ = {x ∈ R | x = p/q, for some positive integers p,q} Interval Notation [a,b] = {x | a ≤ x ≤ b} [a,b) = {x | a ≤ x < b} (a,b] = {x | a < x ≤ b} (a,b) = {x | a < x < b} closed interval [a,b] open interval (a,b) Universal Set and Empty Set The universal set U is the set containing everything currently under consideration. Sometimes implicit Sometimes explicitly stated. Contents depend on the context. The empty set is the set with no elements. Symbolized ∅, but {} also used. U Venn Diagram a e i o u V John Venn (1834-1923) Cambridge, UK Russell’s Paradox Let S be the set of all sets which are not members of themselves. A paradox results from trying to answer the question “Is S a member of itself?” Related Paradox: Henry is a barber who shaves all people who do not shave themselves. A paradox results from trying to answer the question “Does Henry shave himself?” Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) Cambridge, UK Nobel Prize Winner Some things to remember Sets can be elements of sets. {{1,2,3},a, {b,c}} {N,Z,Q,R} The empty set is different from a set containing the empty set. ∅ ≠ { ∅ } Set Equality Definition: Two sets are equal if and only if they have the same elements. Therefore if A and B are sets, then A and B are equal if and only if . We write A = B if A and B are equal sets. {1,3,5} = {3, 5, 1} {1,5,5,5,3,3,1} = {1,3,5} 15 Subsets Definition: The set A is a subset of B, if and only if every element of A is also an element of B. The notation A ⊆ B is used to indicate that A is a subset of the set B. A ⊆ B holds if and only if is true. Because a ∈ ∅ is always false, ∅ ⊆ S ,for every set S. Because a ∈ S → a ∈ S, S ⊆ S, for every set S. Showing a Set is or is not a Subset of Another Set Showing that A is a Subset of B: To show that A ⊆ B, show that if x belongs to A, then x also belongs to B. Showing that A is not a Subset of B: To show that A is not a subset of B, A ⊈ B, find an element x ∈ A with x ∉ B. (Such an x is a counterexample to the claim that x ∈ A implies x ∈ B.) Examples: The set of all computer science majors at your school is a subset of all students at your school. The set of integers with squares less than 100 is not a subset of the set of nonnegative integers. Another look at Equality of Sets Recall that two sets A and B are equal, denoted by A = B, iff Using logical equivalences we have that A = B iff This is equivalent to A ⊆ B and B ⊆ A Proper Subsets Definition: If A ⊆ B, but A ≠B, then we say A is a proper subset of B, denoted by A ⊂ B. If A ⊂ B, then is true. Venn Diagram U B A Set Cardinality Definition: If there are exactly n distinct elements in S where n is a nonnegative integer, we say that S is finite. Otherwise it is infinite. Definition: The cardinality of a finite set A, denoted by |A|, is the number of (distinct) elements of A. Examples: |ø| = 0 Let S be the letters of the English alphabet. Then |S| = 26 |{1,2,3}| = 3 |{ø}| = 1 The set of integers is infinite. Power Sets Definition: The set of all subsets of a set A, denoted P(A), is called the power set of A. Example: If A = {a,b,c} then P(A) = {ø, {a},{b},{a,b}, {a,c}, {b,c}, {c}, {a,c,b}} If a set has n elements, then the cardinality of the power set is 2ⁿ. (In Chapters 5 and 6, we will discuss different ways to show this.) Tuples The ordered n-tuple (a1,a2,…..,an) is the ordered collection that has a1 as its first element and a2 as its second element and so on until an as its last element. Two n-tuples are equal if and only if their corresponding elements are equal. 2-tuples are called ordered pairs. The ordered pairs (a,b) and (c,d) are equal if and only if a = c and b = d. Cartesian Product Definition: The Cartesian Product of two sets A and B, denoted by A × B is the set of ordered pairs (a,b) where a ∈ A and b ∈ B . Example: A = {a,b} B = {1,2,3} A × B = {(b,2),(a,1),(a,2),(a,3), (b,1),(b,3)} Definition: A subset R of the Cartesian product A × B is called a relation from the set A to the set B. (Relations will be covered in depth in Chapter 9. ) René Descartes (1596-1650) Cartesian Product Definition: The cartesian products of the sets A1,A2,……,An, denoted by A1 × A2 × …… × An , is the set of ordered n-tuples (a1,a2,……,an) where ai belongs to Ai for i = 1, … n. Example: What is C × B × A where A = {pizza, apple}, B = {1,2} and C = {a,b,c} Solution: { (a, 1, pizza), (a,1,apple), (c,1,pizza) ……} Cartesian Product Definition: The cartesian products of the sets A1,A2,……,An, denoted by A1 × A2 × …… × An , is the set of ordered n-tuples (a1,a2,……,an) where ai belongs to Ai for i = 1, … n. Example: What is A × B × C where A = {0,1}, B = {1,2} and C = {0,1,2} Solution: Cartesian Product Definition: The cartesian products of the sets A1,A2,……,An, denoted by A1 × A2 × …… × An , is the set of ordered n-tuples (a1,a2,……,an) where ai belongs to Ai for i = 1, … n. Example: What is A × B × C where A = {0,1}, B = {1,2} and C = {0,1,2} Solution: A × B × C = {(0,1,0), (0,1,1), (0,1,2),(0,2,0), (0,2,1), (0,2,2),(1,1,0), (1,1,1), (1,1,2), (1,2,0), (1,2,1), (1,2,2)} Truth Sets of Quantifiers Given a predicate P and a domain D, we define the truth set of P to be the set of elements in D for which P(x) is true. The truth set of P(x) is denoted by Example: The truth set of P(x) where the domain is the integers and P(x) is “|x| = 1” is the set {1,-1} Set Operations Section 2.2 Section Summary Set Operations Union Intersection Complementation Difference More on Set Cardinality Set Identities Proving Identities Membership Tables Boolean Algebra Propositional calculus and set theory are both instances of an algebraic system called a Boolean Algebra. This is discussed in Chapter 12. The operators in set theory are analogous to the corresponding operator in propositional calculus. As always there must be a universal set U. All sets are assumed to be subsets of U. Union Definition: Let A and B be sets. The union of the sets A and B, denoted by A ∪ B, is the set: Example: What is {1,2,3} ∪ {3, 4, 5}? Solution: {1,2,3,4,5} U A B Venn Diagram for A ∪ B Intersection Definition: The intersection of sets A and B, denoted by A ∩ B, is Note if the intersection is empty, then A and B are said to be disjoint. Example: What is? {1,2,3} ∩ {3,4,5} ? Solution: {3} Example:What is? {1,2,3} ∩ {4,5,6} ? Solution: { } -not that joint but disjoint! U A B Venn Diagram for A ∩B Complement Definition: If A is a set, then the complement of the A (with respect to U), denoted by Ā is the set U - A Ā = {x ∈ U | x ∉ A} (The complement of A is sometimes denoted by Ac .) Example: If U is the positive integers less than 100, what is the complement of {x | x > 70}
Solution: {x | <=70} A U Venn Diagram for Complement Ā Difference Definition: Let A and B be sets. The difference of A and B, denoted by A – B, is the set containing the elements of A that are not in B. The difference of A and B is also called the complement of B with respect to A. A – B = {x | x ∈ A  x ∉ B} = A ∩B U A B Venn Diagram for A − B The Cardinality of the Union of Two Sets Inclusion-Exclusion |A ∪ B| = |A| + | B| − |A ∩ B| Example: Let A be the math majors in your class and B be the CS majors. To count the number of students who are either math majors or CS majors, add the number of math majors and the number of CS majors, and subtract the number of joint CS/math majors. We will return to this principle in Chapter 6 and Chapter 8 where we will derive a formula for the cardinality of the union of n sets, where n is a positive integer.

Use set builder notation and propositional logic. Membership Tables: Verify that elements in the same combination of sets always either belong or do not belong to the same side of the identity. Use 1 to indicate it is in the set and a 0 to indicate that it is not.

Generalized Unions and Intersections Let A1, A2 ,…, An be an indexed collection of sets. We define: These are well defined, since union and intersection are associative. For i = 1,2,…, let Ai = {i, i + 1, i + 2, ….}. Then, Functions Section 2.3 Section Summary Definition of a Function. Domain, Codomain Image, Preimage Injection, Surjection, Bijection Inverse Function Function Composition Graphing Functions Floor, Ceiling, Factorial Functions Definition: Let A and B be nonempty sets. A function f from A to B, denoted f: A → B is an assignment of each element of A to exactly one element of B. We write f(a) = b if b is the unique element of B assigned by the function f to the element a of A. Functions are sometimes called mappings or transformations. A B C A - Students B -Grades D F Kathy Scott Sandeep Patel Carlota Rodriguez Jalen Williams Functions A function f: A → B can also be defined as a subset of A×B (a relation). This subset is restricted to be a relation where no two elements of the relation have the same first element. Specifically, a function f from A to B contains one, and only one ordered pair (a, b) for every element a∈ A. and Functions Given a function f: A → B: We say f maps A to B or f is a mapping from A to B. A is called the domain of f. B is called the codomain of f. If f(a) = b, then b is called the image of a under f. a is called the preimage of b. The range of f is the set of all images of points in A under f. We denote it by f(A). Two functions are equal when they have the same domain, the same codomain and map each element of the domain to the same element of the codomain. Representing Functions Functions may be specified in different ways: An explicit statement of the assignment. Students and grades example. A formula. f(x) = x + 1 A computer program. A Java program that when given an integer n, produces the nth Fibonacci Number (covered in the next section and also inChapter 5). Questions f(a) = ?

A function is said to be an injection if it is one-to-one. v w A B a b c d x y z Surjections Definition: A function f from A to B is called onto or surjective, if and only if for every element there is an element with . A function f is called a surjection if it is onto. A B a b c d x y z Bijections Definition: A function f is a one-to-one correspondence, or a bijection, if it is both one-to-one and onto (surjective and injective). A B a b c d x y z w Showing that f is one-to-one or onto Showing that f is one-to-one or onto Example 1: Let f be the function from {a,b,c,d} to {1,2,3} defined by f(a) = 3, f(b) = 2, f(c) = 1, and f(d) = 3. Is f an onto function? 1-1?? Solution: ? Yes!!! Example 2: Is the function f(x) = x2 from the set of integers to the set of integers onto? Solution: ? Showing that f is one-to-one or onto Example 1: Let f be the function from {a,b,c,d} to {1,2,3} defined by f(a) = 3, f(b) = 2, f(c) = 1, and f(d) = 3. Is f an onto function? Solution: Yes, f is onto since all three elements of the codomain are images of elements in the domain. If the codomain were changed to {1,2,3,4}, f would not be onto. Example 2: Is the function f(x) = x2 from the set of integers to the set of integers onto? Solution: No, f is not onto because there is no integer x with x2 = −1, for example. Inverse Functions Definition: Let f be a bijection from A to B. Then the inverse of f, denoted , is the function from B to A defined as No inverse exists unless f is a bijection. Why? Inverse Functions A B a b c d V W X Y f A B a b c d V W X Y Questions Example 1: Let f be the function from {a,b,c} to {1,2,3} such that f(a) = 2, f(b) = 3, and f(c) = 1. Is f invertible and if so what is its inverse? Solution: ? Questions Example 1: Let f be the function from {a,b,c} to {1,2,3} such that f(a) = 2, f(b) = 3, and f(c) = 1. Is f invertible and if so what is its inverse? Solution: The function f is invertible because it is a one-to-one correspondence. The inverse function f-1 reverses the correspondence given by f, so f-1 (1) = c, f-1 (2) = a, and f-1 (3) = b. Questions Example 2: Let f: Z  Z be such that f(x) = x + 1. Is f invertible, and if so, what is its inverse? Solution: ? Questions Example 2: Let f: Z  Z be such that f(x) = x + 1. Is f invertible, and if so, what is its inverse? Solution: The function f is invertible because it is a one-to-one correspondence. The inverse function f-1 reverses the correspondence so f-1 (y) = y – 1. Questions Example 3: Let f: R → R be such that . Is f invertible, and if so, what is its inverse? Solution: ?? Questions Example 3: Let f: R → R be such that . Is f invertible, and if so, what is its inverse? Solution: The function f is not invertible because it is not one-to-one . Composition Definition: Let f: B → C, g: A → B.

Let f be the function from the set {a,b,c} to the set {1,2,3} such that f(a) = 3, f(b) = 2, and f(c) = 1. What is the composition of f and g, and what is the composition of g and f.

Note that g∘f is not defined, because the range of f is not a subset of the domain of g. Composition Questions Example 2: Let f and g be functions from the set of integers to the set of integers defined by f(x) = 2x + 3 and g(x) = 3x + 2. What is the composition of f and g, and also the composition of g and f ?

Solution: f∘g (x)= f(g(x)) = f(3x + 2) = 2(3x + 2) + 3 = 6x + 7 g∘f (x)= g(f(x)) = g(2x + 3) = 3(2x + 3) + 2 = 6x + 11 Graphs of Functions Let f be a function from the set A to the set B.

Stirling’s Formula: Sequences and Summations Section 2.4 Section Summary Sequences. Examples: Geometric Progression, Arithmetic Progression Recurrence Relations Example: Fibonacci Sequence Summations Introduction Sequences are ordered lists of elements. 1, 2, 3, 5, 8 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, ……. Sequences arise throughout mathematics, computer science, and in many other disciplines, ranging from botany to music. We will introduce the terminology to represent sequences and sums of the terms in the sequences. Sequences Definition: A sequence is a function from a subset of the integers (usually either the set {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, …..} or {1, 2, 3, 4, ….} ) to a set S. The notation an is used to denote the image of the integer n. We can think of an as the equivalent of f(n) where f is a function from {0,1,2,…..} to S. We call an a term of the sequence. Sequences Example: Consider the sequence where Geometric Progression Definition: A geometric progression is a sequence of the form: where the initial term a and the common ratio r are real numbers. Examples: Let a = 1 and r = −1. Then: Let a = 2 and r = 5. Then: Let a = 6 and r = 1/3. Then: Arithmetic Progression Definition: A arithmetic progression is a sequence of the form: where the initial term a and the common difference d are real numbers. Examples: Let a = −1 and d = 4: Let a = 7 and d = −3: Let a = 1 and d = 2: Strings Definition: A string is a finite sequence of characters from a finite set (an alphabet). Sequences of characters or bits are important in computer science. The empty string is represented by λ. The string abcde has length 5. Recurrence Relations Definition: A recurrence relation for the sequence {an} is an equation that expresses an in terms of one or more of the previous terms of the sequence, namely, a0, a1, …, an-1, for all integers n with n ≥ n0, where n0 is a nonnegative integer. A sequence is called a solution of a recurrence relation if its terms satisfy the recurrence relation. The initial conditions for a sequence specify the terms that precede the first term where the recurrence relation takes effect. Questions about Recurrence Relations Example 1: Let {an} be a sequence that satisfies the recurrence relation an = an-1 + 3 for n = 1,2,3,4,…. and suppose that a0 = 2. What are a1 , a2 and a3? [Here a0 = 2 is the initial condition.] Solution: We see from the recurrence relation that a1 = a0 + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5 a2 = 5 + 3 = 8 a3 = 8 + 3 = 11 Questions about Recurrence Relations Example 2: Let {an} be a sequence that satisfies the recurrence relation an = an-1 – an-2 for n = 2,3,4,…. and suppose that a0 = 3 and a1 = 5. What are a2 and a3? [Here the initial conditions are a0 = 3 and a1 = 5. ] Solution: We see from the recurrence relation that a2 = a1 - a0 = 5 – 3 = 2 a3 = a2 – a1 = 2 – 5 = –3 Fibonacci Sequence Definition: Define the Fibonacci sequence, f0 ,f1 ,f2,…, by: Initial Conditions: f0 = 0, f1 = 1 Recurrence Relation: fn = fn-1 + fn-2 Example: Find f2 ,f3 ,f4 , f5 and f6 . Answer: f2 = f1 + f0 = 1 + 0 = 1, f3 = f2 + f1 = 1 + 1 = 2, f4 = f3 + f2 = 2 + 1 = 3, f5 = f4 + f3 = 3 + 2 = 5, f6 = f5 + f4 = 5 + 3 = 8. Solving Recurrence Relations Finding a formula for the nth term of the sequence generated by a recurrence relation is called solving the recurrence relation. Such a formula is called a closed formula. Various methods for solving recurrence relations will be covered in Chapter 8 where recurrence relations will be studied in greater depth. Here we illustrate by example the method of iteration in which we need to guess the formula. The guess can be proved correct by the method of induction (Chapter 5). Iterative Solution Example Method 1: Working upward, forward substitution Let {an} be a sequence that satisfies the recurrence relation an = an-1 + 3 for n = 2,3,4,…. and suppose that a1 = 2. a2 = 2 + 3 a3 = (2 + 3) + 3 = 2 + 3 ∙ 2 a4 = (2 + 2 ∙ 3) + 3 = 2 + 3 ∙ 3 . . . an = an-1 + 3 = (2 + 3 ∙ (n – 2)) + 3 = 2 + 3(n – 1) Iterative Solution Example Method 2: Working downward, backward substitution Let {an} be a sequence that satisfies the recurrence relation an = an-1 + 3 for n = 2,3,4,…. and suppose that a1 = 2. an = an-1 + 3 = (an-2 + 3) + 3 = an-2 + 3 ∙ 2 = (an-3 + 3 )+ 3 ∙ 2 = an-3 + 3 ∙ 3 . . . = a2 + 3(n – 2) = (a1 + 3) + 3(n – 2) = 2 + 3(n – 1) Financial Application Example: Suppose that a person deposits $10,000.00 in a savings account at a bank yielding 11% per year with interest compounded annually. How much will be in the account after 30 years? Let Pn denote the amount in the account after 30 years.

Conjecture a formula, recurrence relation, or some other rule. Some questions to ask? Are there repeated terms of the same value? Can you obtain a term from the previous term by adding an amount or multiplying by an amount? Can you obtain a term by combining the previous terms in some way? Are they cycles among the terms? Do the terms match those of a well known sequence? Questions on Special Integer Sequences (opt) Example 1: Find formulae for the sequences with the following first five terms: 1, ½, ¼, 1/8, 1/16 Solution: ? Example 2: Consider 1,3,5,7,9 Solution: ? Example 3: 1, -1, 1, -1,1 Solution: ? Questions on Special Integer Sequences (opt) Example 1: Find formulae for the sequences with the following first five terms: 1, ½, ¼, 1/8, 1/16 Solution: Note that the denominators are powers of 2. The sequence with an = 1/2n is a possible match. This is a geometric progression with a = 1 and r = ½. Example 2: Consider 1,3,5,7,9 Solution: Note that each term is obtained by adding 2 to the previous term. A possible formula is an = 2n + 1. This is an arithmetic progression with a =1 and d = 2. Example 3: 1, -1, 1, -1,1 Solution: The terms alternate between 1 and -1. A possible sequence is an = (−1)n . This is a geometric progression with a = 1 and r = −1. Useful Sequences Guessing Sequences (optional) Example: Conjecture a simple formula for an if the first 10 terms of the sequence {an} are 1, 7, 25, 79, 241, 727, 2185, 6559, 19681, 59047. Solution: ? 3, 9, 27, 81 Guessing Sequences (optional) Example: Conjecture a simple formula for an if the first 10 terms of the sequence {an} are 1, 7, 25, 79, 241, 727, 2185, 6559, 19681, 59047. Solution: Note the ratio of each term to the previous approximates 3. So now compare with the sequence 3n . We notice that the nth term is 2 less than the corresponding power of 3. So a good conjecture is that an = 3n − 2. Integer Sequences (optional) Here are three interesting sequences to try from the OESIS site. To solve each puzzle, find a rule that determines the terms of the sequence. Guess the rules for forming for the following sequences: 2, 3, 3, 5, 10, 13, 39, 43, 172, 177, ...

Hint: Think of the English names for numbers, and whether or not they have the letter ‘e.’ The answers and many more can be found at http://oeis.org/Spuzzle.html Summations Sum of the terms from the sequence The notation: represents The variable j is called the index of summation. It runs through all the integers starting with its lower limit m and ending with its upper limit n. Summations More generally for a set S: Examples: Cardinality of Sets Section 2.5 Section Summary Cardinality Countable Sets Computability Cardinality Definition: The cardinality of a set A is equal to the cardinality of a set B, denoted |A| = |B|, if and only if there is a one-to-one correspondence (i.e., a bijection) from A to B. If there is a one-to-one function (i.e., an injection) from A to B, the cardinality of A is less than or the same as the cardinality of B and we write |A| ≤ |B|. When |A| ≤ |B| and A and B have different cardinality, we say that the cardinality of A is less than the cardinality of B and write |A| < |B|. Cardinality Definition: A set that is either finite or has the same cardinality as the set of positive integers (Z+) is called countable. A set that is not countable is uncountable. The set of real numbers R is an uncountable set. When an infinite set is countable (countably infinite) its cardinality is ℵ0 (where ℵ is aleph, the 1st letter of the Hebrew alphabet). We write |S| = ℵ0 and say that S has cardinality “aleph null.” Showing that a Set is Countable An infinite set is countable if and only if it is possible to list the elements of the set in a sequence (indexed by the positive integers). The reason for this is that a one-to-one correspondence f from the set of positive integers to a set S can be expressed in terms of a sequence a1,a2,…, an ,… where a1 = f(1), a2 = f(2),…, an = f(n),… Showing that a Set is Countable Example 1: Show that the set of positive even integers E is countable set. Solution: Let f(x) = 2x. 1 2 3 4 5 6 ….. 2 4 6 8 10 12 …… Then f is a bijection from N to E since f is both one-to-one and onto. To show that it is one-to-one, suppose that f(n) = f(m). Then 2n = 2m, and so n = m. To see that it is onto, suppose that t is an even positive integer. Then t = 2k for some positive integer k and f(k) = t. Showing that a Set is Countable Example 2: Show that the set of integers Z is countable. Solution: Can list in a sequence: 0, 1, − 1, 2, − 2, 3, − 3 ,……….. Or can define a bijection from N to Z: When n is even: f(n) = n/2 When n is odd: f(n) = −(n−1)/2 The Positive Rational Numbers are Countable Definition: A rational number can be expressed as the ratio of two integers p and q such that q ≠ 0. ¾ is a rational number √2 is not a rational number. Example 3: Show that the positive rational numbers are countable. Solution:The positive rational numbers are countable since they can be arranged in a sequence: r1 , r2 , r3 ,… The next slide shows how this is done. → The Positive Rational Numbers are Countable Constructing the List First list p/q with p + q = 2. Next list p/q with p + q = 3 And so on. First row q = 1. Second row q = 2. etc. 1, ½, 2, 3, 1/3,1/4, 2/3, …. Matrices Section 2.6 Section Summary Definition of a Matrix Matrix Arithmetic Matrices Matrices are useful discrete structures that can be used in many ways. For example, they are used to: describe certain types of functions known as linear transformations. Express which vertices of a graph are connected by edges (see Chapter 10). In later chapters, we will see matrices used to build models of: Transportation systems. Communication networks. Algorithms based on matrix models will be presented in later chapters. Here we cover the aspect of matrix arithmetic that will be needed later. Matrix Definition: A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers. A matrix with m rows and n columns is called an m n matrix. The plural of matrix is matrices. A matrix with the same number of rows as columns is called square. Two matrices are equal if they have the same number of rows and the same number of columns and the corresponding entries in every position are equal. 3 2 matrix Notation Let m and n be positive integers and let The ith row of A is the 1 n matrix [ai1, ai2,…,ain]. The jth column of A is the m 1 matrix: The (i,j)th element or entry of A is the element aij. We can use A = [aij ] to denote the matrix with its (i,j)th element equal to aij. Matrix Arithmetic: Addition Defintion: Let A = [aij] and B = [bij] be m n matrices. The sum of A and B, denoted by A + B, is the m n matrix that has aij + bij as its (i,j)th element. In other words, A + B = [aij + bij]. Example: Note that matrices of different sizes can not be added. Matrix Multiplication Definition: Let A be an m k matrix and B be a k n matrix. The product of A and B, denoted by AB, is the m n matrix that has its (i,j)th element equal to the sum of the products of the corresponding elements from the ith row of A and the jth column of B. In other words, if AB = [cij] then cij = ai1b1j + ai2b2j + … + akjb2j. Example: The product of two matrices is undefined when the number of columns in the first matrix is not the same as the number of rows in the second. Illustration of Matrix Multiplication The Product of A = [aij] and B = [bij] Matrix Multiplication is not Commutative Example: Let Does AB = BA? Solution: AB ≠ BA
