In mathematics, particularly linear algebra, a zero matrix or null matrix is a matrix all of whose entries are zero. It also serves as the additive identity of the additive group of matrices, and is denoted by the symbol or followed by subscripts corresponding to the dimension of the matrix as the context sees fit.[1][2][3] Some examples of zero matrices are
We have a zero matrix in which aij = 0 for all i, j. ... We shall write it O.
