Abstract: Abstract Let S be a symmetric matrix of n rows and n columns, and denote its elements by s ij . Because of the symmetry, the matrix has only n(n + 1)/2 independent elements. Consider those elements as the rectangular coordinates of a point in a space S of n(n + 1)/2 dimensions. The space S will be called the space of symmetric matrices.
