Not to be confused with the commutator of two square matrices and in ring theory.
In mathematics, especially in linear algebra and matrix theory, the commutation matrix is used for transforming the vectorized form of a matrix into the vectorized form of its transpose. Specifically, the commutation matrix K(m,n) is the nm × mn matrix which, for any m × n matrix A, transforms vec(A) into vec(AT):
K(m,n) vec(A) = vec(AT) .
Here vec(A) is the mn × 1 column vector obtain by stacking the columns of A on top of one another:
where A = [Ai,j]. In other words, vec(A) is the vector obtained by vectorizing A in column-major order. Similarly, vec(AT) is the vector obtaining by vectorizing A in row-major order.
In the context of quantum information theory, the commutation matrix is sometimes referred to as the swap matrix or swap operator [1]
