Let's say i have a "m x m" matrix M in symbolical form, and the diagonal elements will always have a value near 1, and the other elements will always be lower than 1/m so the matrix is diagonal dominant. Are there some mathematical properties for the inverse of M? I mean, can I approximate M^-1 with a simple expression?

For my practical issue, I have a 7x7 matrix and I know  that is diagonal dominant, I can compute symbolically the inverse of this matrix with Matlab, but the expression is horrible. Can I approximate with a simpler expression?

Thanks in advance, 

Julian
