The Complex Transformations Between Z
P
and Z
An additional transformation must be done when you want to calculate
the product of two complex matrices, and still another when you want to
calculate the inverse of a complex matrix. These transformations convert
between the Z
P
representation of an m × n complex matrix and a 2m × 2n
partitioned matrix of the following form:
Z =
X
−
Y
Y X
.
The matrix Z created by the > 2 transformation has twice as many
elements as Z
P
.
For example, the matrices below show how Z is related to Z
P
.

The transformations that convert the representation of a complex matrix
between Z

or Z into
the display, then press the keys shown above. The transformation is done
to the specified matrix; the result matrix is not affected.
