Inverse of block matrix

50 Views Asked by At

If $C = A + B$ and $D = A - B$,

and $A$ and $B$ are $n\times n$ and $D , C$ are invertible,

prove the following

$$\begin{bmatrix}A & B \\B & A\end{bmatrix}^{-1} = \frac12 \begin{bmatrix}C^{-1} + D^{-1} & C^{-1} - D^{-1} \\ C^{-1} + D^{-1} & C^{-1} - D^{-1}\end{bmatrix}$$

I tried multiplying them I failed (maybe you can),

I did some other work and did not made any thing better.

Glad if you can help.
