The Gram matrix is symmetric in the case the inner product is real-valued; it is Hermitian in the general, complex case by definition of an inner product. The Gram matrix is positive semidefinite, and every positive semidefinite matrix is the Gramian matrix for some set of vectors. The fact that the Gramian matrix is positive-semidefinite can ...
The determinant of a lattice is the determinant of the Gram matrix, a matrix with entries (a i, a j), where the elements a i form a basis for the lattice. An integral lattice is unimodular if its determinant is 1 or −1. A unimodular lattice is even or type II if all norms are even, otherwise odd or type I.
In linear algebra, two-dimensional singular-value decomposition (2DSVD) computes the low-rank approximation of a set of matrices such as 2D images or weather maps in a manner almost identical to SVD (singular-value decomposition) which computes the low-rank approximation of a single matrix (or a set of 1D vectors). SVD
Low-rank matrix approximations are essential tools in the application of kernel methods to large-scale learning problems. [ 1 ] Kernel methods (for instance, support vector machines or Gaussian processes [ 2 ] ) project data points into a high-dimensional or infinite-dimensional feature space and find the optimal splitting hyperplane.
In mathematics, the Iwasawa decomposition (aka KAN from its expression) of a semisimple Lie group generalises the way a square real matrix can be written as a product of an orthogonal matrix and an upper triangular matrix (QR decomposition, a consequence of Gram–Schmidt orthogonalization).

Hadamard's maximal determinant problem, named after Jacques Hadamard, asks for the largest determinant of a matrix with elements equal to 1 or −1. The analogous question for matrices with elements equal to 0 or 1 is equivalent since, as will be shown below, the maximal determinant of a {1,−1} matrix of size n is 2 n−1 times the maximal determinant of a {0,1} matrix of size n−1.
Dispersal of cells from the biofilm colony is an essential stage of the biofilm life cycle. Dispersal enables biofilms to spread and colonize new surfaces. Enzymes that degrade the biofilm extracellular matrix , such as dispersin B and deoxyribonuclease , may contribute to biofilm dispersal.
