A square real matrix B is an inverse of A if AB = BA = I; A is invertible if it has an inverse, which is then unique and written .
In the setting of Metric Spaces: Balls, the Metric Topology, and the Real and Complex Numbers as Metric Spaces, let and let be a square real matrix, with the matrix product and the identity matrix .
A matrix is an inverse of if and .
is invertible if it has an inverse. An invertible has exactly one inverse: if and are inverses of , then and , so by Uniqueness of the Matrix Inverse (i). This inverse is denoted .
