    Create the Laurent polynomials:

    • a(z)=z+1

    • b(z)=z2+z+z-1

    • c(z)=z

    • d(z)=z2+z-1

    lpA = laurentPolynomial(Coefficients=[1 1],MaxOrder=1);
lpB = laurentPolynomial(Coefficients=[1 1 0 1],MaxOrder=2);
lpC = laurentPolynomial(Coefficients=[1],MaxOrder=1);
lpD = laurentPolynomial(Coefficients=[1 0 0 1],MaxOrder=2);

    Create the matrix lmat = [a(z)b(z)c(z)d(z)]. Obtain the determinant of lmat.

    lmat = laurentMatrix(Elements={lpA,lpB;lpC,lpD});
det(lmat)
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: 1
        MaxOrder: -1

    The determinant is a nonzero monomial. Obtain the inverse of lmat. Inspect the elements of the inverse.

    lmatinv = inverse(lmat);
lmatinv.Elements{1,1}
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: [1 0 0 1]
        MaxOrder: 3


    lmatinv.Elements{1,2}
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: [-1 -1 0 -1]
        MaxOrder: 3


    lmatinv.Elements{2,1}
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: -1
        MaxOrder: 2


    lmatinv.Elements{2,2}
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: [1 1]
        MaxOrder: 2

    Confirm the product of lmat and its inverse is equal to the identity matrix.

    matprod = lmat*lmatinv;
matprod.Elements{1,1}
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: 1
        MaxOrder: 0


    matprod.Elements{1,2}
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: 0
        MaxOrder: 0


    matprod.Elements{2,1}
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: 0
        MaxOrder: 0


    matprod.Elements{2,2}
    ans = 
  laurentPolynomial with properties:

    Coefficients: 1
        MaxOrder: 0
