Abstract The emergence of the matrix theory was accompanied by the study of other theories,and many mathematicians had done a large amount of work during the earlier period of its development.On this basis J. J. Sylvester was the first to use the word matrix introduced some fundamental concepts related to Matrix obtained some principal results and famous theorems and made important contribution for the matrix theory
