Section 26.2 Terminology and notation
We'll repeat the definition of similar matrices here so that we can attach some notation to the notion, and then we'll add a definition related to Discovery 26.1.- similar matrices
a pair of square matrices A and B for which there exists an invertible matrix P satisfying B=P−1AP; we will write B∼A to indicate this relationship
- similarity class
the subset of Mn(C) consisting of all matrices that are similar to a particular matrix
