Admittance inverter
An admittance inverter changes an output admittance $Y_{out}$ to its inversely proportional value $Y_{in}$, multiplied by a value B²:
$$Y_{in}=\frac{B^2}{Y_{out}}$$
B is a susceptance, and is called the characteristic admittance of the inverter.
Different options exist to realize an admittance inverter, of example:
The susceptance B can be an inductance or a capacitance. For example, when we choose a capacitor, B equals $\omega C$ and we get the following circuit. (Note: a negative capacitance corresponds to an inductance, i.e., a coil instead of a capacitor).
$$\begin{bmatrix} 0 & \frac{-j}{\omega C}\\-j \omega C & 0 \end{bmatrix}$$
