Examples of Logical Matrices

Loop-Digraph

The adjacency matrix for a loop-digraph is a logical matrix:

1 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\ \end{pmatrix}$


Relation

A logical matrix can be used as an explicit definition of a binary relation.

The binary relation is a divisor of on the set of natural numbers $\set {1, 2, 3, 4}$ consists of the set of ordered pairs:

$\set {\tuple {1, 1}, \tuple {1, 2}, \tuple {1, 3}, \tuple {1, 4}, \tuple {2, 2}, \tuple {2, 4}, \tuple {3, 3}, \tuple {4, 4} }$


This relation can be represented by the following logical matrix:

$\begin {pmatrix}

1 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 \end {pmatrix}$
