  2. Inner product space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner_product_space

    In mathematics, an inner product space (or, rarely, a Hausdorff pre-Hilbert space [1] [2]) is a real vector space or a complex vector space with an operation called an inner product. The inner product of two vectors in the space is a scalar, often denoted with angle brackets such as in , .

  3. Dot product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_product

    The inner product of two vectors over the field of complex numbers is, in general, a complex number, and is sesquilinear instead of bilinear. An inner product space is a normed vector space, and the inner product of a vector with itself is real and positive-definite.

  4. Orthonormality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthonormality

    In linear algebra, two vectors in an inner product space are orthonormal if they are orthogonal unit vectors. A unit vector means that the vector has a length of 1, which is also known as normalized. Orthogonal means that the vectors are all perpendicular to each other.

  5. Orthonormal basis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthonormal_basis

    In mathematics, particularly linear algebra, an orthonormal basis for an inner product space with finite dimension is a basis for whose vectors are orthonormal, that is, they are all unit vectors and orthogonal to each other.

  6. Linear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_algebra

    Besides these basic concepts, linear algebra also studies vector spaces with additional structure, such as an inner product. The inner product is an example of a bilinear form , and it gives the vector space a geometric structure by allowing for the definition of length and angles.

  7. Gram matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gram_matrix

    In linear algebra, the Gram matrix (or Gramian matrix, Gramian) of a set of vectors , …, in an inner product space is the Hermitian matrix of inner products, whose entries are given by the inner product = , . [1]

  8. Geometric algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_algebra

    In a geometric algebra for which the square of any nonzero vector is positive, the inner product of two vectors can be identified with the dot product of standard vector algebra. The exterior product of two vectors can be identified with the signed area enclosed by a parallelogram the sides of which are the vectors.

  9. Norm (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The inner product of two vectors of a Euclidean vector space is the dot product of their coordinate ... Sublinear function – Type of function in linear algebra;
