The Inverse of a Tridiagonal Matrix
Abstract
The closed form inverse of a fairly general tridiagonal matrix is given. The restriction is that the off-diagonal elements in the tridiagonal band be nonzero. If the elements of the matrix are integers, where the upper off-diagonal elements are equal and the lower off-diagonal elements are equal, then an integer multiple of each element of the inverse can be generated by integer arithmetic.
