In mathematics, in the field of control theory, a Sylvester equation is a matrix equation of the form: [1] A X + X B = C . {\displaystyle AX+XB=C.} It is named after English mathematician James Joseph Sylvester .
In numerical linear algebra, the alternating-direction implicit (ADI) method is an iterative method used to solve Sylvester matrix equations.It is a popular method for solving the large matrix equations that arise in systems theory and control, [1] and can be formulated to construct solutions in a memory-efficient, factored form.
In numerical linear algebra, the Bartels–Stewart algorithm is used to numerically solve the Sylvester matrix equation =.Developed by R.H. Bartels and G.W. Stewart in 1971, [1] it was the first numerically stable method that could be systematically applied to solve such equations.
The determinant of the Sylvester matrix of two polynomials is their resultant, which is zero when the two polynomials have a common root (in case of coefficients in a field) or a non-constant common divisor (in case of coefficients in an integral domain). Sylvester matrices are named after James Joseph Sylvester.
In matrix theory, Sylvester's formula or Sylvester's matrix theorem (named after J. J. Sylvester) or Lagrange−Sylvester interpolation expresses an analytic function f(A) of a matrix A as a polynomial in A, in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of A. [1] [2] It states that [3]
For the general case of an arbitrary number n of variables, there are n sign conditions on the n principal minors of the Hessian matrix that together are equivalent to positive or negative definiteness of the Hessian (Sylvester's criterion): for a local minimum, all the principal minors need to be positive, while for a local maximum, the minors ...
The application of MacCormack method to the above equation proceeds in two steps; a predictor step which is followed by a corrector step. Predictor step: In the predictor step, a "provisional" value of u {\displaystyle u} at time level n + 1 {\displaystyle n+1} (denoted by u i p {\displaystyle u_{i}^{p}} ) is estimated as follows
Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2). In mathematics, the conjugate gradient method is an algorithm for the numerical solution of particular systems of linear equations, namely those whose matrix is positive-semidefinite.
