Given two homogeneous polynomials P(x, y) and Q(x, y) of respective total degrees p and q, their homogeneous resultant is the determinant of the matrix over the monomial basis of the linear map (,) +, where A runs over the bivariate homogeneous polynomials of degree q − 1, and B runs over the homogeneous polynomials of degree p − 1. In ...
Consider the vectors (polynomials) p 1 := 1, p 2 := x + 1, and p 3 := x 2 + x + 1. Is the polynomial x 2 − 1 a linear combination of p 1, p 2, and p 3? To find out, consider an arbitrary linear combination of these vectors and try to see when it equals the desired vector x 2 − 1. Picking arbitrary coefficients a 1, a 2, and a 3, we want
A conical combination is a linear combination with nonnegative coefficients. When a point is to be used as the reference origin for defining displacement vectors, then is a convex combination of points ,, …, if and only if the zero displacement is a non-trivial conical combination of their respective displacement vectors relative to .
PCA of a multivariate Gaussian distribution centered at (1,3) with a standard deviation of 3 in roughly the (0.866, 0.5) direction and of 1 in the orthogonal direction. The vectors shown are the eigenvectors of the covariance matrix scaled by the square root of the corresponding eigenvalue, and shifted so their tails are at the mean.
In geometry and algebra, the triple product is a product of three 3-dimensional vectors, usually Euclidean vectors.The name "triple product" is used for two different products, the scalar-valued scalar triple product and, less often, the vector-valued vector triple product.
Vector calculus or vector analysis is a branch of mathematics concerned with the differentiation and integration of vector fields, primarily in three-dimensional Euclidean space, . [1] The term vector calculus is sometimes used as a synonym for the broader subject of multivariable calculus, which spans vector calculus as well as partial differentiation and multiple integration.
The transformation matrix A = [] preserves the direction of purple vectors parallel to v λ=1 = [1 −1] T and blue vectors parallel to v λ=3 = [1 1] T. The red vectors are not parallel to either eigenvector, so, their directions are changed by the transformation.
Force A points to the west and has a magnitude of 10 N and is represented by the vector <-10, 0>N. Force B points to the south and has a magnitude of 8.0 N and is represented by the vector <0, -8>N. Since these forces are vectors, they can be added by using the parallelogram rule [3] or vector addition.
