Can someone kindly tell me the meaning of the following notation:



A book defined the following matrix $(a_ij)_3times 3$ :



$a_ij=begincases d_ij& ineq j\d_ii+sum_j=1^3 d_ij&i=jendcases$



where $d_ij$ are elements defined for $1le i,jle 3$.



I dont understand the case for $i=j$



Does it mean $d_11=d_11+d_12+d_13$?

I agree with Theo Bendit's comment re: the reuse of a variable in the summation, as it tends to confuse people. Thus, I will rephrase it to give that, for $i = j$, the notation means $a_ii = d_ii + sum_k=1^3 d_ik = d_ii + d_i1 + d_i2 + d_i3$. Thus, for example, $a_11 = d_11 + d_11 + d_12 + d_13 = 2d_11 + d_12 + d_13$.

      We have for $1leq i,jleq 3$



      beginalign*
      a_ij&=
      begincases
      d_ijqquadqquadqquadqquad ineq j\
      d_ii+sum_colorbluej=1^3 d_icolorbluejquadqquad i=j
      endcasestag1\
      &=
      begincases
      d_ijqquadqquadqquadqquad ineq j\
      d_ii+left(sum_colorbluej=1^3 d_icolorbluejright)quad,,,, i=j
      endcasestag2\
      &=
      begincases
      d_ijqquadqquadqquadqquad ineq j\
      d_ii+sum_k=1^3 d_ikquadqquad i=j
      endcases\
      endalign*



      These variants are all valid and represent the same.



      • In (1) and (2) readability is reduced somewhat due to the multiple usage of $j$, on the one hand as bound index variable and on the other hand as free variable.


      • The scope of the index variable $colorbluej$ is indicated in (2) by parenthesis.
