Abstract

In general, a matrix A is idempotent if $A^2$ = A. The idempotent matrices play an important role in the matrix theory and some properties of the Boolean matrices are examined. Using the upper diagonal completion process, we give the characterization of the Boolean idempotent matrices in modified Frobenius normal form.
