In mathematics, a symplectic matrix is a 2 n × 2 n {\displaystyle 2n\times 2n} matrix M {\displaystyle M} with real entries that satisfies the condition where M T {\displaystyle M^{\text{T}}} denotes the transpose of M {\displaystyle M} and Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } is a fixed 2 n × 2 n {\displaystyle 2n\times 2n} nonsingular, skew-symmetric matrix.
