  2. Hadamard matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hadamard_matrix

    In 1933, Raymond Paley discovered the Paley construction, which produces a Hadamard matrix of order q + 1 when q is any prime power that is congruent to 3 modulo 4 and that produces a Hadamard matrix of order 2(q + 1) when q is a prime power that is congruent to 1 modulo 4. [5] His method uses finite fields.

  3. Determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant

    Determinant. In mathematics, the determinant is a scalar -valued function of the entries of a square matrix. The determinant of a matrix A is commonly denoted det (A), det A, or |A|. Its value characterizes some properties of the matrix and the linear map represented, on a given basis, by the matrix. In particular, the determinant is nonzero if ...

  4. Modular group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_group

    Other important quotients are the (2, 3, n) triangle groups, which correspond geometrically to descending to a cylinder, quotienting the x coordinate modulo n, as T n = (z ↦ z + n). (2, 3, 5) is the group of icosahedral symmetry, and the (2, 3, 7) triangle group (and associated tiling) is the cover for all Hurwitz surfaces.

  5. Hadamard product (matrices) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hadamard_product_(matrices)

    The Hadamard product operates on identically shaped matrices and produces a third matrix of the same dimensions. In mathematics, the Hadamard product (also known as the element-wise product, entrywise product [1]: ch. 5 or Schur product [2]) is a binary operation that takes in two matrices of the same dimensions and returns a matrix of the multiplied corresponding elements.

  6. Orthogonal group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_group

    e. In mathematics, the orthogonal group in dimension n, denoted O (n), is the group of distance-preserving transformations of a Euclidean space of dimension n that preserve a fixed point, where the group operation is given by composing transformations. The orthogonal group is sometimes called the general orthogonal group, by analogy with the ...

  7. Modular arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_arithmetic

    Adding 4 hours to 9 o'clock gives 1 o'clock, since 13 is congruent to 1 modulo 12. In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" when reaching a certain value, called the modulus. The modern approach to modular arithmetic was developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss in his book Disquisitiones ...

  8. Jacobi's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi's_formula

    In matrix calculus, Jacobi's formula expresses the derivative of the determinant of a matrix A in terms of the adjugate of A and the derivative of A. [1] If A is a differentiable map from the real numbers to n × n matrices, then. where tr (X) is the trace of the matrix X and is its adjugate matrix. (The latter equality only holds if A (t) is ...

  9. Schur decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schur_decomposition

    Schur decomposition. In the mathematical discipline of linear algebra, the Schur decomposition or Schur triangulation, named after Issai Schur, is a matrix decomposition. It allows one to write an arbitrary complex square matrix as unitarily similar to an upper triangular matrix whose diagonal elements are the eigenvalues of the original matrix.
