  2. Gaussian elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_elimination

    For example, to solve a system of n equations for n unknowns by performing row operations on the matrix until it is in echelon form, and then solving for each unknown in reverse order, requires n(n + 1)/2 divisions, (2n 3 + 3n 2 − 5n)/6 multiplications, and (2n 3 + 3n 2 − 5n)/6 subtractions, [9] for a total of approximately 2n 3 /3 operations.

  3. Pivot element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivot_element

    A pivot position in a matrix, A, is a position in the matrix that corresponds to a row–leading 1 in the reduced row echelon form of A. Since the reduced row echelon form of A is unique, the pivot positions are uniquely determined and do not depend on whether or not row interchanges are performed in the reduction process.

  4. LU decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LU_decomposition

    LDU decomposition of a Walsh matrix. Let A be a square matrix. An LU factorization refers to the factorization of A, with proper row and/or column orderings or permutations, into two factors – a lower triangular matrix L and an upper triangular matrix U:

  5. Rank (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank_(linear_algebra)

    The column rank of A is the dimension of the column space of A, while the row rank of A is the dimension of the row space of A. A fundamental result in linear algebra is that the column rank and the row rank are always equal. (Three proofs of this result are given in § Proofs that column rank = row rank, below.)

  6. Rank factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank_factorization

    In practice, we can construct one specific rank factorization as follows: we can compute , the reduced row echelon form of .Then is obtained by removing from all non-pivot columns (which can be determined by looking for columns in which do not contain a pivot), and is obtained by eliminating any all-zero rows of .

  7. Low-rank approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-rank_approximation

    In mathematics, low-rank approximation refers to the process of approximating a given matrix by a matrix of lower rank. More precisely, it is a minimization problem, in which the cost function measures the fit between a given matrix (the data) and an approximating matrix (the optimization variable), subject to a constraint that the approximating matrix has reduced rank.

  8. Row and column spaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_and_column_spaces

    The dimension of the column space is called the rank of the matrix and is at most min(m, n). [1] A definition for matrices over a ring is also possible. The row space is defined similarly. The row space and the column space of a matrix A are sometimes denoted as C(A T) and C(A) respectively. [2] This article considers matrices of real numbers

  9. Row echelon form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_echelon_form

    [1] The leading entry (that is, the left-most nonzero entry) of every nonzero row, called the pivot, is on the right of the leading entry of every row above. [2] Some texts add the condition that the leading coefficient must be 1 [3] while others require this only in reduced row echelon form.
