superimpose matrix of 4x4 order with 4x4 to achieve 9x

To achieve a 9 × 9 matrix by superimposing two 4 × 4 matrices, you need to strategical


the 4 × 4 matrices within a larger 9 × 9 matrix.
Here’s how you can do it:
Step 1: Define the 4 × 4 matrices
Let the two 4 × 4 matrices be A and B.
Example:
a11 ​ a12 ​ a13 ​ a14 ​ b11 ​ b12 ​ b13 ​ b14 ​

a a22 a23 a24 b b22 b23 b24


A = 21 , B = 21
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

a31 a32 a33 a34 b31 b32 b33 b34


​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

a41 ​ a42 ​ a43 ​ a44 ​ b41 ​ b42 ​ b43 ​ b44 ​

Step 2: Embed them into a 9 × 9 zero matrix


Start with a 9 × 9 zero matrix, and superimpose A and B by placing them in desired pos
example:
Place A in the top-left corner.
Place B in the bottom-right corner.
The resulting 9 × 9 matrix C would look like this:
a11 ​ a12 ​ a13 ​ a14 ​ 0 0 0 0 0
a21 ​ a22 ​ a23 ​ a24 ​ 0 0 0 0 0
a31 ​
a32 ​
a33 ​
a34 ​
0 0 0 0 0
a41 ​ a42 ​ a43 ​ a44 ​ 0 0 0 0 0
C= 0 ​ ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 0 0
​ ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ 0 ​ ​

0 0 0 0 0 b11 ​ b12 ​ b13 ​ b14 ​

0 0 0 0 0 b21 ​
b22 ​
b23 ​
b24 ​

0 0 0 0 0 b31 ​ b32 ​ b33 ​ b34 ​

0 0 0 0 0 b41 ​ b42 ​ b43 ​ b44 ​

Step 3: Custom Superimposition


If you want to mix A and B in different parts of the 9 × 9 matrix, you can place them in o
or adjacent regions based on your requirement.
Would you like to define specific superimposition positions, or shall I compute an examp
code?
