 Nonnegative matrix

A real matrix is nonnegative when every entry is nonnegative. This entrywise condition differs from being a positive semidefinite matrix: the symmetric matrix $\left(\begin{array}{cc}0& 1\\ 1& 0\end{array}\right)$ is nonnegative but has eigenvalues $1$ and $-1$.

A nonnegative matrix is a type of matrix in which all the elements are greater than or equal to zero.
