Inner matrix dimensions must agree

I am writing a code in cvx using Matlab. But having a error :
Inner matrix dimensions must agree.

In expression

cvx_begin
variable W1(N+1,N+1) complex semidefinite;
expression R12;

R12=-rel_entr(t(2,1),t(2,1)+real (rho1 * trace
(si1* W1)))/log(2);


Where si1 is N+1*N+1 complex matrix.

And W1 as already defined variable W1(N+1,N+1) complex semidefinite, rho1 (constant)

But it is giving me a error :
Inner matrix dimensions must agree.

Do suggest me the modification.

function [rbar, t, tau, W1] =Optimize_R(T, eta, P1, N, rho1, rho2, rho3, si1, si2)

It will be less confusing it you stick with one user name.

You have a complicated mess, solving multiple problems, using for loop over N, etc. And as is now, it is not reproducible because it is missing data.

I suggest using a combination of whos for MATLAB variables and just typing CVX expressions at the command line (including MATLAB variable times a CVX variable) and look at the dimensions. Are they what they should be? Are the dimensions conformal? It appears something isn’t. Is rho1 actually a scalar?
