Adjugate matrix
In linear algebra, the adjugate, classical adjoint, or adjunct of a square matrix is the transpose of its cofactor matrix.
The adjugate has sometimes been called the "adjoint", but today the "adjoint" of a matrix normally refers to its corresponding adjoint operator, which is its conjugate transpose.
The adjugate of A is the transpose of the cofactor matrix C of A,
In more detail, suppose R is a commutative ring and A is an n×n matrix with entries from R.
The adjugate is defined as it is so that the product of A with its adjugate yields a diagonal matrix whose diagonal entries are det(A),
