I know that they got a rank of 2 since there are 2 linearly independent columns but what if we decided to count rows? In that case we would have 4 linearly independent rows which would suggest the rank is 4? How do we...
Is there any shortcut to find the rank of this $4 \times 6$ matrix quickly?

I would love to get help on this problem: Suppose that $M$ is a square $k \times k$ matrix with entries of 1's in the main diagonal and entries of $\frac{1}{k}$ for all others. Show that the rank of $M$ is $k$.
I think I should go about by contradiction, that is, by assuming that the column...
Let the matrix of partial derivatives ##\displaystyle{\frac{\partial y^{j}}{\partial y^{i}}}## be a ##p \times p## matrix, but let the rank of this matrix be less than ##p##.

What is the rule on the preservation of rank through an elementary operation? I know that rank can never go up, but is there any direct way to determine that it goes down (either than reducing the matrix down to row-echelon form)? Is there a good source that go into the proofs for properties...
I am dealing with a 3x4 complex matrix M that relates a vector d to another vetor c. That is:
c = [M]*d
d is 4x1 and c is 3x1. I want to introduce a new line (constraint) into M, say d(1) = d(2). However, I would like to only apply the constraint to the real or only the imaginary parts. Is...

I am reading in my group theory book the well known commutation relations of the Lie algebra of SO(3), i.e. [J,J]=i\epsilon J.

What is the trace of a second rank tensor covariant in both indices?

Is the metric tensor a tensor of rank two simply because the line element (or equivalent Pythagorean relation between differential distances) is "quadratic" in nature? This would be in opposition to say, the stress tensor being a tensor of rank two because it has to deal with "shear" forces. I...
