  2. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    For example, if A is a 3-by-0 matrix and B is a 0-by-3 matrix, then AB is the 3-by-3 zero matrix corresponding to the null map from a 3-dimensional space V to itself, while BA is a 0-by-0 matrix. There is no common notation for empty matrices, but most computer algebra systems allow creating and computing with them.

  3. Matrix decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_decomposition

    The system Q(Rx) = b is solved by Rx = Q T b = c, and the system Rx = c is solved by 'back substitution'. The number of additions and multiplications required is about twice that of using the LU solver, but no more digits are required in inexact arithmetic because the QR decomposition is numerically stable .

  4. Linear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_algebra

    Matrix multiplication is defined in such a way that the product of two matrices is the matrix of the composition of the corresponding linear maps, and the product of a matrix and a column matrix is the column matrix representing the result of applying the represented linear map to the represented vector. It follows that the theory of finite ...

  5. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    The result, x 2, is a "better" approximation to the system's solution than x 1 and x 0. If exact arithmetic were to be used in this example instead of limited-precision, then the exact solution would theoretically have been reached after n = 2 iterations ( n being the order of the system).

  6. Gaussian elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_elimination

    One sees the solution is z = −1, y = 3, and x = 2. So there is a unique solution to the original system of equations. Instead of stopping once the matrix is in echelon form, one could continue until the matrix is in reduced row echelon form, as it is done in the table. The process of row reducing until the matrix is reduced is sometimes ...

  7. Determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant

    For the case of column vector c and row vector r, each with m components, the formula allows quick calculation of the determinant of a matrix that differs from the identity matrix by a matrix of rank 1: (+) = +. More generally, [14] for any invertible m × m matrix X,

  8. Cholesky decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholesky_decomposition

    In linear algebra, the Cholesky decomposition or Cholesky factorization (pronounced / ʃ ə ˈ l ɛ s k i / shə-LES-kee) is a decomposition of a Hermitian, positive-definite matrix into the product of a lower triangular matrix and its conjugate transpose, which is useful for efficient numerical solutions, e.g., Monte Carlo simulations.

  9. Singular value decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_value_decomposition

    After the algorithm has converged, the singular value decomposition = is recovered as follows: the matrix is the accumulation of Jacobi rotation matrices, the matrix is given by normalising the columns of the transformed matrix , and the singular values are given as the norms of the columns of the transformed matrix .
