In mathematics and computer science, the biadjacency matrix for a finite bipartite graph G with n black vertices and m white vertices is an n × m matrix where the entry a_ij is the number of edges joining black vertex i and white vertex j. In the special case of a finite, undirected simple bipartite graph , the biadjacency matrix is a (0,1)-matrix.

The relationship between a bipartite graph and its biadjacency matrix is studied in spectral graph theory.
