  2. Rank (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

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

    In linear algebra, the rank of a matrix A is the dimension of the vector space generated (or spanned) by its columns. [1] [2] [3] This corresponds to the maximal number of linearly independent columns of A. This, in turn, is identical to the dimension of the vector space spanned by its rows. [4]

  3. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalues_and_eigenvectors

    Eigenvalues and eigenvectors are often introduced to students in the context of linear algebra courses focused on matrices. [ 22 ] [ 23 ] Furthermore, linear transformations over a finite-dimensional vector space can be represented using matrices, [ 3 ] [ 4 ] which is especially common in numerical and computational applications.

  4. Eigendecomposition of a matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigendecomposition_of_a_matrix

    Let A be a square n × n matrix with n linearly independent eigenvectors q i (where i = 1, ..., n).Then A can be factored as = where Q is the square n × n matrix whose i th column is the eigenvector q i of A, and Λ is the diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the corresponding eigenvalues, Λ ii = λ i.

  5. Eigenvalue algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalue_algorithm

    Given an n × n square matrix A of real or complex numbers, an eigenvalue λ and its associated generalized eigenvector v are a pair obeying the relation [1] =,where v is a nonzero n × 1 column vector, I is the n × n identity matrix, k is a positive integer, and both λ and v are allowed to be complex even when A is real.l When k = 1, the vector is called simply an eigenvector, and the pair ...

  6. Spectrum of a matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrum_of_a_matrix

    In mathematics, the spectrum of a matrix is the set of its eigenvalues. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] More generally, if T : V → V {\displaystyle T\colon V\to V} is a linear operator on any finite-dimensional vector space , its spectrum is the set of scalars λ {\displaystyle \lambda } such that T − λ I {\displaystyle T-\lambda I} is not invertible .

    Top: The action of M, indicated by its effect on the unit disc D and the two canonical unit vectors e 1 and e 2. Left: The action of V ⁎, a rotation, on D, e 1, and e 2. Bottom: The action of Σ, a scaling by the singular values σ 1 horizontally and σ 2 vertically.

  8. Jordan normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_normal_form

    This shows that the eigenvalues are 1, 2, 4 and 4, according to algebraic multiplicity. The eigenspace corresponding to the eigenvalue 1 can be found by solving the equation Av = λv. It is spanned by the column vector v = (−1, 1, 0, 0) T. Similarly, the eigenspace corresponding to the eigenvalue 2 is spanned by w = (1, −1, 0, 1) T.

  9. 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]
