Test if an object is a square matrix:

This matrix is rectangular:

These are not matrices:

Define a function that only evaluates for explicit square matrices:

This represents the Hermitian part of a matrix explicitly:

This does not evaluate because the matrix is rectangular:

This does not evaluate because a is not an explicit matrix:

A square matrix is made up of vectors of length :
