Computing the k th power of a matrix needs k – 1 times the time of a single matrix multiplication, if it is done with the trivial algorithm (repeated multiplication). As this may be very time consuming, one generally prefers using exponentiation by squaring , which requires less than 2 log 2 k matrix multiplications, and is therefore much ...
This algorithm transmits O(n 2 /p 2/3) words per processor, which is asymptotically optimal. [28] However, this requires replicating each input matrix element p 1/3 times, and so requires a factor of p 1/3 more memory than is needed to store the inputs. This algorithm can be combined with Strassen to further reduce runtime.
The left column visualizes the calculations necessary to determine the result of a 2x2 matrix multiplication. Naïve matrix multiplication requires one multiplication for each "1" of the left column. Each of the other columns (M1-M7) represents a single one of the 7 multiplications in the Strassen algorithm. The sum of the columns M1-M7 gives ...
Using a naive lower bound and schoolbook matrix multiplication for the upper bound, one can straightforwardly conclude that 2 ≤ ω ≤ 3. Whether ω = 2 is a major open question in theoretical computer science , and there is a line of research developing matrix multiplication algorithms to get improved bounds on ω .
For example, if A is a 3-by-0 matrix and B is a 0-by-3 matrix, then AB is the 3-by-3 zero matrix corresponding to the null map from a 3-dimensional space V to itself, while BA is a 0-by-0 matrix. There is no common notation for empty matrices, but most computer algebra systems allow creating and computing with them.
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 ...
For m = 0, A and B are empty matrices (but of different shapes if n > 0), as is their product AB; the summation involves a single term S = Ø, and the formula states 1 = 1, with both sides given by the determinant of the 0×0 matrix. For m = 1, the summation ranges over the collection ([]) of the n different singletons taken from [n], and both ...
A square root of a 2×2 matrix M is another 2×2 matrix R such that M = R 2, where R 2 stands for the matrix product of R with itself. In general, there can be zero, two, four, or even an infinitude of square-root matrices. In many cases, such a matrix R can be obtained by an explicit formula.
