Kronecker :: kroneckerNormalForm(Matrix,Matrix)

kroneckerNormalForm(Matrix,Matrix) -- normal form of a pair of matrices of scalars

Synopsis

Description

This function gives the normal form of a pair of matrices (A,B) over a field of the same dimensions up to multiplication on either side by an invertible matrix. The return values are such that P*A*Q=A' and P*B*Q=B'.
