Matrix types, column diagonal

We shall often encotmter square matrices, which have the same number of rows and columns. A diagonal matrix is a square matrix in which all the elements are zero except for those on the diagonal. The unit or identity matrix I is a special type of diagonal matrix in which all the non-zero elements are 1 thus the 3x3 unit matrix is ... 

There are several types of matrix operations that are used in the MCSCF method. The transpose of a matrix A is denoted A and is defined by (A )ij = Xji. The identity (AB) = B A is sometimes useful where AB implies the usual definition of the product of matrices. A vector, specifically a column vector unless otherwise noted, is a special case of a matrix. A matrix-vector product, as in Eq. (5), is a special case of a matrix product. The conjugate of a matrix is written A and is defined by (A )jj = (A,j). The adjoint, written as A is defined by A = (A ) . The inverse of a square matrix, written as A , satisfies the relation A(A = 1 where = du is called the identity or unit matrix. The inverse of a matrix product satisfies the relation (AB) =B" A" . A particular type of matrix is a diagonal matrix D, where D,y = y, and is sometimes written D = diag(dj, d2> ) or as D = diag(d). The unit matrix is an example of a diagonal matrix. 

Table M4 Some matrices used as representation of the molecular structure symbol, current name, number of rows and columns (A, number of vertices 6, number of edges , cyclicity D, topological diameter and K, maximum walk length), and type (S, symmetric matrix U, unsymmetrical matrix B, symmetric or unsymmetrical matrix and D, diagonal matrix).

The reader can verify that the diagonal elements of the matrix formed from Eq. (362) are equal to the negative of the sum of the other element in each column as required. Hence, general schemes composed of steps of the type exemplified by the steps in schemes (314), (350), and (351) and satisfying conditions (1) through (6) always give rate equations of the pseudomonomolecular form. 

For high Da the column is dose to chemical equilibrium and behaves very similar to a non-RD column with n -n -l components. This is due to the fact that the chemical equilibrium conditions reduce the dynamic degrees of freedom by tip the number of reversible reactions in chemical equilibrium. In fact, a rigorous analysis [52] for a column model assuming an ideal mixture, chemical equilibrium and kinetically controlled mass transfer with a diagonal matrix of transport coefficients shows that there are n -rip- 1 constant pattern fronts connecting two pinches in the space of transformed coordinates [108]. The propagation velocity is computed as in the case of non-reactive systems if the physical concentrations are replaced by the transformed concentrations. In contrast to non-RD, the wave type will depend on the properties of the vapor-liquid and the reaction equilibrium as well as of the mass transfer law. 

Identify the size and the type of the given matrices. Denote whether the matrix is a square, a column, a diagonal, a row, or a unit (identity). 

The structure parameters obtained with a P matrix of the type discussed above, agree in most cases fairly well with the results obtained with a diagonal weight matrix. It is, however, sometimes more difficult to obtain convergency. The standard deviations increase for most parameters the increase is largest for small distances as discussed below (cf. Table S, columns b and d).
