In mathematics, in the field of control theory, a Sylvester equation is a matrix equation of the form: [1] + =. It is named after English mathematician James Joseph Sylvester. Then given matrices A, B, and C, the problem is to find the possible matrices X that obey this equation.
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
[a] This means that the function that maps y to f(x) + J(x) ⋅ (y – x) is the best linear approximation of f(y) for all points y close to x. The linear map h → J(x) ⋅ h is known as the derivative or the differential of f at x. When m = n, the Jacobian matrix is square, so its determinant is a well-defined function of x, known as the ...
Input: initial guess x (0) to the solution, (diagonal dominant) matrix A, right-hand side vector b, convergence criterion Output: solution when convergence is reached Comments: pseudocode based on the element-based formula above k = 0 while convergence not reached do for i := 1 step until n do σ = 0 for j := 1 step until n do if j ≠ i then ...
The matrix equation AX=XB, where X is unknown, has an infinite number of solutions that can be easily studied by a geometrical approach. [8] To find X it is necessary to consider a simultaneous set of 2 equations A 1 X=XB 1 and A 2 X=XB 2; the matrices A 1, A 2, B 1, B 2 have to be dermined by experiments to be performed in an optimized way. [9]
Geometrically, this says that the solution set for Ax = b is a translation of the solution set for Ax = 0. Specifically, the flat for the first system can be obtained by translating the linear subspace for the homogeneous system by the vector p. This reasoning only applies if the system Ax = b has at least one solution.
Matrices can be used to compactly write and work with multiple linear equations, that is, systems of linear equations. For example, if A is an m×n matrix, x designates a column vector (that is, n×1-matrix) of n variables x 1, x 2, ..., x n, and b is an m×1-column vector, then the matrix equation =
There are various equivalent ways to define the determinant of a square matrix A, i.e. one with the same number of rows and columns: the determinant can be defined via the Leibniz formula, an explicit formula involving sums of products of certain entries of the matrix. The determinant can also be characterized as the unique function depending ...
