Formally, a parity check matrix H of a linear code C is a generator matrix of the dual code, C ⊥. This means that a codeword c is in C if and only if the matrix-vector product Hc ⊤ = 0 (some authors [1] would write this in an equivalent form, cH ⊤ = 0.) The rows of a parity check matrix are the coefficients of the parity check equations. [2]
In his book Flos, Leonardo de Pisa, also known as Fibonacci (1170–1250), was able to closely approximate the positive solution to the cubic equation x 3 + 2x 2 + 10x = 20. Writing in Babylonian numerals he gave the result as 1,22,7,42,33,4,40 (equivalent to 1 + 22/60 + 7/60 2 + 42/60 3 + 33/60 4 + 4/60 5 + 40/60 6 ), which has a relative ...
The matrix sign function is a generalization of the complex signum function = {() >, <, to the matrix valued analogue ().Although the sign function is not analytic, the matrix function is well defined for all matrices that have no eigenvalue on the imaginary axis, see for example the Jordan-form-based definition (where the derivatives are all zero).
Synonym for (0,1)-matrix, binary matrix or Boolean matrix. Can be used to represent a k-adic relation. Markov matrix: A matrix of non-negative real numbers, such that the entries in each row sum to 1. Metzler matrix: A matrix whose off-diagonal entries are non-negative. Monomial matrix
Consider the system of equations + + = + + = + + = The coefficient matrix is = [], and the augmented matrix is (|) = []. Since both of these have the same rank, namely 2, there exists at least one solution; and since their rank is less than the number of unknowns, the latter being 3, there are an infinite number of solutions.
The state-transition matrix is used to find the solution to a general state-space representation of a linear system in the following form ˙ = () + (), =, where () are the states of the system, () is the input signal, () and () are matrix functions, and is the initial condition at .
It has the determinant and the trace of the matrix among its coefficients. The characteristic polynomial of an endomorphism of a finite-dimensional vector space is the characteristic polynomial of the matrix of that endomorphism over any basis (that is, the characteristic polynomial does not depend on the choice of a basis).
Hooke's law has a symmetric fourth-order stiffness tensor with 81 components (3×3×3×3), but because the application of such a rank-4 tensor to a symmetric rank-2 tensor must yield another symmetric rank-2 tensor, not all of the 81 elements are independent. Voigt notation enables such a rank-4 tensor to be represented by a 6×6 matrix ...
