Let R = (rij) be an m × n matrix and let S = (sik) be dip × q matrix denned over a field F. The Kronecker product R × S of R and S is denned as follows:

Definition 1.1. The Kronecker product R × S of the matrices R and S is given by where rij S; i = 1, 2, … , m; j = 1, 2, … , n, is itself a p × q matrix (1, 69-70).
