Best Answer

In a skew symmetric matrix of nxn we have n(n-1)/2 arbitrary elements. Number of arbitrary element is equal to the dimension. For proof, use the standard basis.

Thus, the answer is 3x2/2=3 .

Are skew symmetric roots purely real or purely imaginary?

They can be either. If they are roots of a real polynomial then purely imaginary would be symmetric and only real roots can be skew symmetric.


What is the definition of a skew-Hermitian matrix?

Skew-Hermitian matrix defined:If the conjugate transpose, A†, of a square matrix, A, is equal to its negative, -A, then A is a skew-Hermitian matrix.Notes:1. The main diagonal elements of a skew-Hermitian matrix must be purely imaginary, including zero.2. The cross elements of a skew-Hermitian matrix are complex numbers having equal imaginary part values, and equal-in-magnitude-but-opposite-in-sign real parts.
