A double summation












1














While going through the article given here (page 23), it seems that the following doublesummation is carried out



$sum_{i=1,j=1}^{N^2} B_{ij} = Big( sum_{i,j=1}^{N^2-1} + sum_{i=1,j=N^2}^{N^2} + sum_{i=N^2,j=1}^{N^2} - sum_{i=N^2,j=N^2}^{N^2} Big) B_{ij}$. Where $B_{ij} = c_{ij} F_i rho_S F_j^dagger$, is an operator.



Could anyone help me to understand how the double sum on the left breaks into the four sums on the right hand side?

          When you write $sum_{i,j=1}^{N^2-1} B_{ij}$, to get to $sum_{i,j}^{N^2}B_{ij}$ you are missing all the terms that have either $i=N^2$, or $j=N^2$. The authors are dividing these in two groups:




          • $i=1,ldots,N^2$; $j=N^2$


          • $i=N^2$; $j=1,ldots,N^2$



          But now they are counting $i=N^2$, $j=N^2$ twice, so they subtract it once.
