Adjoint of a matrix Just a little help please...
if  c.conj(AB) = conj(B)*conj(A)
and if Transpose(AB) = Transpose(B)*Transpose(A)
then why is Adjoint(AB) = Adjoint(B)*Adjoint(A)
It seems the two operations combined would cancel their effects in reversing order. Thanks

The complex conjugate does not switch the order of matrix multiplication the way you've suggested above. The rules are:
$$ \overline{AB} = \overline{A} \overline{B}, \quad (AB)^T = B^T A^T $$
So since the adjoint for a matrix is complex conjugation + transpose, then we indeed get
$$ (AB)^{\ast} = B^{\ast} A^{\ast}$$
