I want to make a matrix in Mathematica that looks like this:

enter image description here

Any idea on how I can do this?

    $\begingroup$ "looks like this" If you want those characters to be displayed, maybe you can use DisplayForm@ MatrixForm@{{FractionBox["\[PartialD]", "\[PartialD]x"], 0}, {0, FractionBox["\[PartialD]", "\[PartialD]y"]}, {FractionBox[ "\[PartialD]", "\[PartialD]y"], FractionBox["\[PartialD]", "\[PartialD]x"]}} $\endgroup$

One possiblity is to define the function d as:

d = {{D[#, x], 0}, {0, D[#, y]}, {D[#, x], D[#, y]}} &

To apply this operator to a particular function:

f[x_, y_] := x^2 + Sin[y]

Then:

d[f[x, y]]

{{2 x, 0}, {0, Cos[y]}, {2 x, Cos[y]}}
