When this matrix is square, that is, when the function takes the same number of variables as input as the number of vector components of its output, its determinant is referred to as the Jacobian determinant. Both the matrix and (if applicable) the determinant are often referred to simply as the Jacobian in literature. [4]
The kernel of a m × n matrix A over a field K is a linear subspace of K n. That is, the kernel of A, the set Null(A), has the following three properties: Null(A) always contains the zero vector, since A0 = 0. If x ∈ Null(A) and y ∈ Null(A), then x + y ∈ Null(A). This follows from the distributivity of matrix multiplication over addition.
The standard convergence condition (for any iterative method) is when the spectral radius of the iteration matrix is less than 1: ((+)) < A sufficient (but not necessary) condition for the method to converge is that the matrix A is strictly or irreducibly diagonally dominant. Strict row diagonal dominance means that for each row, the absolute ...
Pick a vector in the above span that is not in the kernel of A − 4I; for example, y = (1,0,0,0) T. Now, (A − 4I)y = x and (A − 4I)x = 0, so {y, x} is a chain of length two corresponding to the eigenvalue 4. The transition matrix P such that P −1 AP = J is formed by putting these vectors next to each other as follows
A matrix whose elements above the main diagonal are all zero is called a lower triangular matrix, while a matrix whose elements below the main diagonal are all zero is called an upper triangular matrix. As with diagonal matrices, the eigenvalues of triangular matrices are the elements of the main diagonal.
The kernel of a matrix, also called the null space, is the kernel of the linear map defined by the matrix. The kernel of a homomorphism is reduced to 0 (or 1) if and only if the homomorphism is injective, that is if the inverse image of every element consists of a single element. This means that the kernel can be viewed as a measure of the ...
Months after its $80 million Series B fundraise, Course Hero has acquired Symbolab, an artificial intelligence-powered calculator that helps students answer and understand complex math questions.
A matrix satisfying only the first of the conditions given above, namely + =, is known as a generalized inverse. If the matrix also satisfies the second condition, namely + + = +, it is called a generalized reflexive inverse. Generalized inverses always exist but are not in general unique.
