A note on representations for the inverses of tridiagonal matrices

摘要

In this note, we propose an explicit representation with the nested sums for the entries of the inverses of general tridiagonal nonsingular matrices. Its equivalence with other particular representations, based on the combinatorial expressions or the continued fractions, is considered. In addition, an analytical representation for the entries of the finite sections of the resolvent of Jacobi matrices, in terms of its related orthogonal polynomials, is observed.
