Let there be a matrix A
A = ⎣⎡i−1−i−21−i3ii2i0⎦⎤
Now A is skew Hermitian only if
( A* )T = - A
Now we take the Conjugate of A and that is given as
A* = ⎣⎡−i−1+i−21+i−3i−i2−i0⎦⎤
On taking the transpose of above we have
( A* )T = ⎣⎡−i1+i2−1+i−3i−i−2−i0⎦⎤
Now,
- A = ⎣⎡−i1+i2−1+i−3i−i−2−i0⎦⎤
On comparing ( A* )T and - A we see that
( A* )T = - A
Hence, A is a skew Hermitian matrix.
