    Complex Conjugate

    Basic definition

    The complex conjugate of a complex number is the number obtained by flipping the sign of its imaginary part.

    Detailed definition

    The complex conjugate of a complex number z congruent a + b i is defined to be z^_ congruent a - b i. The conjugate matrix of a matrix A = (a_(i j)) is the matrix obtained by replacing each element a_(i j) with its complex conjugate, A^_ = (a^__(i j)). The complex conjugate is implemented in the Wolfram Language as Conjugate[z].
