One more way of denoting the conjugate transpose?

Why aren't "*T" listed as a possible notation for the conjugate transpose? This notation, which I've previously encountered in statistical signal processing, is presumably more intuitive, since it really is just a combination of conjugate and transpose. --Fredrik Orderud 00:57, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I never encountered the notation as you say, . I'd say it looks a bit clumsy. Besides, note that in this article (and in many other places) they use the bar for the conjugate, so then your notation might need to be changed to .
If you think the notation you mention is in widespread use, and its addition would be helpful, you could add it to the list of alternative notations, next to . But again, the * thing might mean different things to different people. Oleg Alexandrov 01:47, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
