Hello Jack !
First problem :
If you want T to be a 2x2 matrix, you have to first assign T={{ ... }} , and
afterward you can have a look at the MatrixForm of T.
So you have to write : (T=...)//MatrixForm, or MatrixForm[T=...] , or
T=...;MatrixForm[T] , but not T=...//MatrixForm, because T would be
considered as the matrixform display of your matrix, and not as the matrix
itself.
Second problem :
d is not a matrix, but a vector. So it cannot be transposed. If you want d
to be a 2x1 matrix, you have to write d={{..},{..}} !
So here a corrected code :
In[1]:=
MatrixForm[T = (-(2*u)^(-1))*{{1, 1}, {1, 1}}]
In[2]:=
MatrixForm[d = {{En1}, {In1}}]
In[3]:=
MatrixForm[P = {{0, 1}, {1, 0}}]
In[4]:=
a = (1/2)*Inverse[P - T . P . Transpose[Conjugate[T]]] . d .
Transpose[Conjugate[d]]
In[5]:=
MatrixForm[a]
Last tip : Avoid capital letters...

Hi,
I am new to Mathematica and I can't seem to get mathematica to
multiply symbolic matrices. Can anyone please help? The notebook file
is at http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/~xpeng/question/
Thank you so much. Please reply to xpeng at eecs.berkeley.edu.
