  2. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Number-theoretical problems led Gauss to relate coefficients of quadratic forms, that is, expressions such as x 2 + xy − 2y 2, and linear maps in three dimensions to matrices. Eisenstein further developed these notions, including the remark that, in modern parlance, matrix products are non-commutative .

  3. Linear fractional transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_fractional...

    Linear fractional transformations leave cross ratio invariant, so any linear fractional transformation that leaves the unit disk or upper half-planes stable is an isometry of the hyperbolic plane metric space. Since Henri Poincaré explicated these models they have been named after him: the Poincaré disk model and the Poincaré half-plane model.

  4. Algebraic expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_expression

    An algebraic equation is an equation involving polynomials, for which algebraic expressions may be solutions. If you restrict your set of constants to be numbers, any algebraic expression can be called an arithmetic expression. However, algebraic expressions can be used on more abstract objects such as in Abstract algebra.

  5. Expression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In the equation 7x − 5 = 2, the sides of the equation are expressions. In mathematics, an expression is a written arrangement of symbols following the context-dependent, syntactic conventions of mathematical notation. Symbols can denote numbers, variables, operations, and functions. [1]

  6. Cramer's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramer's_rule

    In linear algebra, Cramer's rule is an explicit formula for the solution of a system of linear equations with as many equations as unknowns, valid whenever the system has a unique solution. It expresses the solution in terms of the determinants of the (square) coefficient matrix and of matrices obtained from it by replacing one column by the ...

  7. Logistic regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_regression

    The odds of the dependent variable equaling a case (given some linear combination of the predictors) is equivalent to the exponential function of the linear regression expression. This illustrates how the logit serves as a link function between the probability and the linear regression expression. Given that the logit ranges between negative ...

  8. Fractional calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional_calculus

    Fractional calculus is a branch of mathematical analysis that studies the several different possibilities of defining real number powers or complex number powers of the differentiation operator = (), and of the integration operator J {\displaystyle J} [ Note 1 ] J f ( x ) = ∫ 0 x f ( s ) d s , {\displaystyle Jf(x)=\int _{0}^{x}f(s)\,ds\,,}

  9. Vector notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_notation

    A cylindrical coordinate system with origin O, polar axis A, and longitudinal axis L. The dot is the point with radial distance ρ = 4, angular coordinate φ = 130°, and height z = 4. A cylindrical vector is an extension of the concept of polar coordinates into three dimensions. It is akin to an arrow in the cylindrical coordinate system.
