English
Let E_{a,b} and E_{b,c} denote the matrix units (the matrices with a single 1 in position (a,b) and (b,c) respectively, and zeros elsewhere). Then E_{a,b} E_{b,c} = E_{a,c}.
Русский
Пусть E_{a,b} и E_{b,c} — элементарные матрицы-единицы (единицы в позициях (a,b) и (b,c) соответственно, нули повсюду). Тогда E_{a,b} E_{b,c} = E_{a,c}.

$$$E_{a,b} E_{b,c} = E_{a,c}$$$
