  2. Rotation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix

    Noting that any identity matrix is a rotation matrix, and that matrix multiplication is associative, we may summarize all these properties by saying that the n × n rotation matrices form a group, which for n > 2 is non-abelian, called a special orthogonal group, and denoted by SO(n), SO(n,R), SO n, or SO n (R), the group of n × n rotation ...

  3. Rodrigues' rotation formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodrigues'_rotation_formula

    In the theory of three-dimensional rotation, Rodrigues' rotation formula, named after Olinde Rodrigues, is an efficient algorithm for rotating a vector in space, given an axis and angle of rotation. By extension, this can be used to transform all three basis vectors to compute a rotation matrix in SO(3) , the group of all rotation matrices ...

  4. List of open-source software for mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open-source...

    The primary difference between a computer algebra system and a traditional calculator is the ability to deal with equations symbolically rather than numerically. The precise uses and capabilities of these systems differ greatly from one system to another, yet their purpose remains the same: manipulation of symbolic equations.

  5. Stable roommates problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_roommates_problem

    To achieve an O(n 2) running time, a ranking matrix whose entry at row i and column j is the position of the jth individual in the ith's list; this takes O(n 2) time. With the ranking matrix, checking whether an individual prefers one to another can be done in constant time by comparing their ranks in the matrix.

  6. Infinitesimal rotation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinitesimal_rotation_matrix

    An infinitesimal rotation matrix or differential rotation matrix is a matrix representing an infinitely small rotation.. While a rotation matrix is an orthogonal matrix = representing an element of () (the special orthogonal group), the differential of a rotation is a skew-symmetric matrix = in the tangent space (the special orthogonal Lie algebra), which is not itself a rotation matrix.

  7. Givens rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Givens_rotation

    A Givens rotation acting on a matrix from the left is a row operation, moving data between rows but always within the same column. Unlike the elementary operation of row-addition, a Givens rotation changes both of the rows addressed by it.

  8. Axis–angle representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis–angle_representation

    The angle θ and axis unit vector e define a rotation, concisely represented by the rotation vector θe.. In mathematics, the axis–angle representation parameterizes a rotation in a three-dimensional Euclidean space by two quantities: a unit vector e indicating the direction of an axis of rotation, and an angle of rotation θ describing the magnitude and sense (e.g., clockwise) of the ...

  9. Euler's rotation theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_rotation_theorem

    Then, any orthogonal matrix is either a rotation or an improper rotation. A general orthogonal matrix has only one real eigenvalue, either +1 or −1. When it is +1 the matrix is a rotation. When −1, the matrix is an improper rotation. If R has more than one invariant vector then φ = 0 and R = I. Any vector is an invariant vector of I.
