Kom: Commutation matrix.

Description

Construct the communtation matrix.

Usage

Kom(m, n)

Arguments

m

a natural number.

n

another natural number.

Value

K The m * n by m * n commutation matrix.

Details

This function constructs the commutation matrix K, which maps c(A) to c(t(A)) for an \(m\) by \(n\) matrix A.
