# scipy.sparse.kronsum

`scipy.sparse.``kronsum`(A, B, format=None)

  kronecker sum of sparse matrices A and B

  Kronecker sum of two sparse matrices is a sum of two Kronecker products kron(I_n,A) + kron(B,I_m) where A has shape (m,m) and B has shape (n,n) and I_m and I_n are identity matrices of shape (m,m) and (n,n) respectively.

  Parameters : | A : square matrix B : square matrix format : string format of the result (e.g. “csr”)
  Returns : | kronecker sum in a sparse matrix format :
