Formulation F9096 on D761: Identity matrix
F9096
Formulation 0
Let $R$ be an D266: Identity ring such that
(i) $0_R$ is an D270: Additive identity in $R$
(ii) $1_R$ is a D577: Multiplicative identity in $R$
A D102: Matrix $r : I \times J \to R$ is an identity matrix over $R$ if and only if
(1) \begin{equation} \forall \, i \in I : \forall \, j \in J \left( i \neq j \quad \implies \quad r_{i, j} = 0_R \right) \end{equation}
(2) \begin{equation} \forall \, i \in I : \forall \, j \in J \left( i = j \quad \implies \quad r_{i, j} = 1_R \right) \end{equation}
