                                              Elementary Matrices
                                                 1. Preliminaries
             Consider the following situation: A is a matrix, possible augmented, and U is the reduced row echelon form
           of A. The U is obtained from A by a series of elementary row operations. However, these operations are, in
           some sense, external to the matrix A. It turns out that we can accomplish this row reduction by multiplying
           A by a sequence of matrices E called elementary matrices. In other words, U = E ···E A. There are three
                                    i                                            k    1
           types of elementary matrices, each corresponding to one of the types of elementary row operations. Note that
           elementary matrices are necessarily n ×n.
                                           2. Definitions and Notation

                                                           3. Main Theorem
             Theorem 3.1. Let A be an n×n matrix, then the following are equivalent:
                 (1) A is non-singular.
                 (2) Ax = b has a unique solution for each b in Rn.
                 (3) Ax = 0 has only the trivial solution.
                 (4) A can be row reduced to the identity matrix.
             Proof: The way this theorem is proved is by assuming each statement is true, and showing that the next
             statement is also true. Then we assume statement (4.) is true, and show that (1.) must be true. Logically we
             get (1.) ⇒ (2.) ⇒ (3.) ⇒ (4.) ⇒ (1.), so that the truth of any one statement implies the truth of all statements.
             (1.) ⇒ (2.) Assume that A is non-singular so that A has an inverse A−1. If b is any vector in Rn, then A(A−1b) =
             b. In particular the matrix equation Ax = b has a solution, namely A−1b. As x = A−1(Ax) = A−1b, this
             solution must be unique.
             (2.) ⇒ (3.) Assume that Ax = b has a unique solution for each b in Rn. By taking b = 0 and considering the
             uniqueness of the solution, x must be the trivial solution.
             (3.) ⇒ (4.) Suppose that Ax = 0 has only the trivial solution. Let U be the reduced row echelon form of A.
             Since there is only one solution to the above equation, the corresponding linear system has no free variables.
             This means that every column of U must be a piviot column. In particular, U has n leading ones as U has n
             columns. But, U has n rows as well. There is exactly one n × n matrix with this property, namely I . Thus
                                                                                                                     n
             U =I and A can be row reduced to I .
                   n                                n
             (4.) ⇒ (1.) Suppose that A can be row reduced to I. Then there is a sequence of elementary matrices E ,...,E
                                                                                                                     1      k
             such that E ···E A = I. By definition, E ···E = A−1 implying that A is invertible. 
                         k    1                        k     1
                                                                 −1                                                       −1
                Notice that in the last part of the proof above A   =E ···E . By taking inverses, we get A = (E ···E )       .
                                                                        k     1                                    k     1
             Thus A = E−1···E−1. This implies the following important corollary:
                         1      k
             Corollary 3.1. If A is an n × n matrix then A is non-singular if and only if A is the product of elementary
             matrices.
                                                                     3
