[Tex/LaTex] Matrix in TikZ and Equation

alignmentequationstikz-pgf

The following code draw the matrix I want:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{matrix,decorations.pathreplacing, calc, positioning}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\matrix [matrix of math nodes,left delimiter=(,right delimiter=),row sep=0.1cm,column sep=0.1cm] (m) {
      1 & *     &   *  & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      0 & \pm 1 &   *  & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      0 & 0     &\pm 1 & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots\\
        0 &  0    & 0    &   \dots   &\pm 1& 0 & \dots & 0 \\
        0 &  0    & 0    &  \dots   & 0  & * & \dots & * \\
      \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots\\
      0 &  0    & 0    &   0   & 0   & * & \dots & *\\ };

\draw[dashed] ($0.5*(m-1-5.north east)+0.5*(m-1-6.north west)$) -- ($0.5*(m-8-6.south east)+0.5*(m-8-5.south west)$);

\draw[dashed] ($0.5*(m-5-1.south west)+0.5*(m-6-1.north west)$) -- ($0.5*(m-5-8.south east)+0.5*(m-6-8.north east)$);

\node[above=1pt of m-1-1] (top-1) {};
\node[above=1pt of m-1-5] (top-5) {};
\node[above=-1pt of m-1-6] (top-6) {};
\node[above=-1pt of m-1-8] (top-8) {};

\node[right=4pt of m-1-8] (right-1) {};
\node[right=4pt of m-5-8] (right-5) {};
\node[right=4pt of m-6-8] (right-6) {};
\node[right=4pt of m-8-8] (right-8) {};

\node[rectangle,above delimiter=\{] (del-top-1) at ($0.5*(top-1.south) +0.5*(top-5.south)$) {\tikz{\path (top-1.south west) rectangle (top-5.north east);}};
\node[above=10pt] at (del-top-1.north) {$k_1$};
\node[rectangle,above delimiter=\{] (del-top-2) at ($0.5*(top-6.south) +0.5*(top-8.south)$) {\tikz{\path (top-6.south west) rectangle (top-8.north east);}};
\node[above=10pt] at (del-top-2.north) {$k-k_1$};

\node[rectangle,right delimiter=\}] (del-right-1) at ($0.5*(right-1.west) +0.5*(right-5.west)$) {\tikz{\path (right-1.north east) rectangle (right-5.south west);}};
\node[right=22pt] at (del-right-1.west) {$k_1$};
\node[rectangle,right delimiter=\}] (del-right-2) at ($0.5*(right-6.west) +0.5*(right-8.west)$) {\tikz{\path (right-6.north east) rectangle (right-8.south west);}};
\node[right=22pt] at (del-right-2.west) {$k-k_1$};

\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document}

Now since I want to insert it in a equation I used the baseline option for tikz:

\documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{matrix,decorations.pathreplacing, calc, positioning} \begin{document} \begin{equation}  Q= \begin{tikzpicture}[baseline] \matrix [matrix of math nodes,left delimiter=(,right delimiter=),row sep=0.1cm,column sep=0.1cm] (m) {
      1 & *     &   *  & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      0 & \pm 1 &   *  & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      0 & 0     &\pm 1 & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots\\
        0 &  0    & 0    &   \dots   &\pm 1& 0 & \dots & 0 \\
        0 &  0    & 0    &  \dots   & 0  & * & \dots & * \\
      \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots\\
      0 &  0    & 0    &   0   & 0   & * & \dots & *\\ };

\draw[dashed] ($0.5*(m-1-5.north east)+0.5*(m-1-6.north west)$) -- ($0.5*(m-8-6.south east)+0.5*(m-8-5.south west)$);

\draw[dashed] ($0.5*(m-5-1.south west)+0.5*(m-6-1.north west)$) -- ($0.5*(m-5-8.south east)+0.5*(m-6-8.north east)$);

\node[above=1pt of m-1-1] (top-1) {}; \node[above=1pt of m-1-5] (top-5) {}; \node[above=-1pt of m-1-6] (top-6) {}; \node[above=-1pt of m-1-8] (top-8) {};

\node[right=4pt of m-1-8] (right-1) {}; \node[right=4pt of m-5-8] (right-5) {}; \node[right=4pt of m-6-8] (right-6) {}; \node[right=4pt of m-8-8] (right-8) {};

\node[rectangle,above delimiter=\{] (del-top-1) at ($0.5*(top-1.south)
+0.5*(top-5.south)$) {\tikz{\path (top-1.south west) rectangle (top-5.north east);}}; \node[above=10pt] at (del-top-1.north) {$k_1$}; \node[rectangle,above delimiter=\{] (del-top-2) at ($0.5*(top-6.south)
+0.5*(top-8.south)$) {\tikz{\path (top-6.south west) rectangle (top-8.north east);}}; \node[above=10pt] at (del-top-2.north) {$k-k_1$};

\node[rectangle,right delimiter=\}] (del-right-1) at ($0.5*(right-1.west) +0.5*(right-5.west)$) {\tikz{\path (right-1.north east) rectangle (right-5.south west);}}; \node[right=22pt] at (del-right-1.west) {$k_1$}; \node[rectangle,right delimiter=\}] (del-right-2) at ($0.5*(right-6.west) +0.5*(right-8.west)$) {\tikz{\path (right-6.north east) rectangle (right-8.south west);}}; \node[right=22pt] at (del-right-2.west) {$k-k_1$};

\end{tikzpicture} \end{equation}

\end{document}

Unfortunately the result is this:

What happened to the parenthesis?

Best Answer

You're nesting tikzpictures, that is often a bad idea. Here's an alternative approach using the fit library.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{matrix,decorations.pathreplacing, calc, positioning,fit}
\begin{document}
\begin{equation}
  Q= 
\begin{tikzpicture}[
  baseline,
  label distance=10pt % added
]


\matrix [matrix of math nodes,left delimiter=(,right delimiter=),row sep=0.1cm,column sep=0.1cm] (m) {
      1 & *     &   *  & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      0 & \pm 1 &   *  & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      0 & 0     &\pm 1 & \dots & *   & 0 & \dots & 0 \\
      \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots\\
        0 &  0    & 0    &   \dots   &\pm 1& 0 & \dots & 0 \\
        0 &  0    & 0    &  \dots   & 0  & * & \dots & * \\
      \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots\\
      0 &  0    & 0    &   0   & 0   & * & \dots & *\\ };

\draw[dashed] ($0.5*(m-1-5.north east)+0.5*(m-1-6.north west)$) -- ($0.5*(m-8-6.south east)+0.5*(m-8-5.south west)$);

\draw[dashed] ($0.5*(m-5-1.south west)+0.5*(m-6-1.north west)$) -- ($0.5*(m-5-8.south east)+0.5*(m-6-8.north east)$);

\node[
  fit=(m-1-1)(m-1-5),
  inner xsep=0,
  above delimiter=\{,
  label=above:$k_1$
] {};

\node[
  fit=(m-1-6)(m-1-8),
  inner xsep=0,
  above delimiter=\{,
  label=above:$k-k_1$
 ] {};

\node[
  fit=(m-1-8)(m-5-8),
  inner xsep=15pt,inner ysep=0,
  right delimiter=\},
  label=right:$k_1$
] {};

\node[
  fit=(m-6-8)(m-8-8),
  inner xsep=15pt,inner ysep=0,
  right delimiter=\},
  label=right:$k-k_1$
] {};

\end{tikzpicture} 
\end{equation}

[Tex/LaTex] How to define the default vertical distance between nodes

I don't really get the question so I hope this is what you wanted. If you include a full document (such that we copy paste and see the problem on our systems) things are much more easier.

Here, you can change the default setting within a scope but your block style had a node distance which was resetting every time it is issued. I've made it 2mm such that we can see the difference easier.

\documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows,shapes.geometric,positioning}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[decision/.style={diamond, draw, text width=4.5em, text badly centered, node distance=3.5cm, inner sep=0pt},
                    block/.style   ={rectangle, draw, text width=6em, text centered, rounded corners, minimum height=4em, minimum height=2em},
                    cloud/.style   ={draw, ellipse, minimum height=2em},
                    line/.style    ={draw,-latex'},
                    node distance = 1cm, 
                    auto]
    \node [block] (1st) {1st};
    \node [block, right= of 1st]  (2nd1) {2nd1};
\begin{scope}[node distance=2mm and 10mm]%Here we change it for everything inside this scope
    \node [block, above= of 2nd1] (2nd2) {2nd2};
    \node [block, below= of 2nd1] (2nd3) {2nd3};
    \node [block, right= of 2nd1] (3rd1) {3rd1};
    \node [block, above= of 3rd1] (3rd2) {3rd2};
    \node [block, above= of 3rd2] (3rd3) {3rd3};
\end{scope}
    \node [block, below= of 3rd1] (3rd4) {3rd4};
    \node [block, below= of 3rd4] (3rd5) {3rd5};

    \path [line] (1st) -- (2nd1);
    \path [line] (2nd1) -- (2nd2);
    \path [line] (2nd1) -- (2nd3);
    \path [line] (2nd2) -- (3rd3);
    \path [line] (2nd1) -- (3rd1);
    \path [line] (1st) -- (2nd1);
\end{tikzpicture}

[Tex/LaTex] Adjusting edge alignment and positioning of fitted node

This is done by setting the width of the first node, and then fitting the other two nodes to the previous nodes, using the fit library.
Same as #1.
Solved with #1.
This depends on what you want to do. If you only want two short nodes inside of the yellow, you can add two more nodes anchored there. But it depends on what you want to do
