  2. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(mathematics)

    For example, a 2,1 represents the element at the second row and first column of the matrix. In mathematics, a matrix (pl.: matrices) is a rectangular array or table of numbers, symbols, or expressions, with elements or entries arranged in rows and columns, which is used to represent a mathematical object or property of such an object.

  3. Matrix exponential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_exponential

    The matrix exponential of another matrix (matrix-matrix exponential), [24] is defined as = ⁡ = ⁡ for any normal and non-singular n×n matrix X, and any complex n×n matrix Y. For matrix-matrix exponentials, there is a distinction between the left exponential Y X and the right exponential X Y , because the multiplication operator for matrix ...

  4. Cramer's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramer's_rule

    In linear algebra, Cramer's rule is an explicit formula for the solution of a system of linear equations with as many equations as unknowns, valid whenever the system has a unique solution. It expresses the solution in terms of the determinants of the (square) coefficient matrix and of matrices obtained from it by replacing one column by the ...

  5. Sylvester's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvester's_formula

    In matrix theory, Sylvester's formula or Sylvester's matrix theorem (named after J. J. Sylvester) or Lagrange−Sylvester interpolation expresses an analytic function f(A) of a matrix A as a polynomial in A, in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of A. [1] [2] It states that [3]

  6. Vectorization (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vectorization_(mathematics)

    For a symmetric matrix A, the vector vec(A) contains more information than is strictly necessary, since the matrix is completely determined by the symmetry together with the lower triangular portion, that is, the n(n + 1)/2 entries on and below the main diagonal.

  7. Determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant

    In mathematics, the determinant is a scalar-valued function of the entries of a square matrix.The determinant of a matrix A is commonly denoted det(A), det A, or | A |.Its value characterizes some properties of the matrix and the linear map represented, on a given basis, by the matrix.

  8. Permanent (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_(mathematics)

    Let Ω(n,k) be the class of all (0, 1)-matrices of order n with each row and column sum equal to k. Every matrix A in this class has perm(A) > 0. [13] The incidence matrices of projective planes are in the class Ω(n 2 + n + 1, n + 1) for n an integer > 1. The permanents corresponding to the smallest projective planes have been calculated.

  9. Sylvester equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvester_equation

    In mathematics, in the field of control theory, a Sylvester equation is a matrix equation of the form: [1] + =. It is named after English mathematician James Joseph Sylvester. Then given matrices A, B, and C, the problem is to find the possible matrices X that obey this equation.
