Although an explicit inverse is not necessary to estimate the vector of unknowns, it is the easiest way to estimate their accuracy and os found in the diagonal of a matrix inverse (the posterior covariance matrix of the vector of unknowns). However, faster algorithms to compute only the diagonal entries of a matrix inverse are known in many cases.
[1] [2] [3] That is, given an invertible matrix and the outer product of vectors and , the formula cheaply computes an updated matrix inverse (+)). The Sherman–Morrison formula is a special case of the Woodbury formula .
In mathematics, and in particular linear algebra, the Moore–Penrose inverse + of a matrix , often called the pseudoinverse, is the most widely known generalization of the inverse matrix. [1] It was independently described by E. H. Moore in 1920, [2] Arne Bjerhammar in 1951, [3] and Roger Penrose in 1955. [4]
In mathematics, a block matrix or a partitioned matrix is a matrix that is interpreted as having been broken into sections called blocks or submatrices. [1] [2]Intuitively, a matrix interpreted as a block matrix can be visualized as the original matrix with a collection of horizontal and vertical lines, which break it up, or partition it, into a collection of smaller matrices.
In mathematics, specifically linear algebra, the Woodbury matrix identity – named after Max A. Woodbury [1] [2] – says that the inverse of a rank-k correction of some matrix can be computed by doing a rank-k correction to the inverse of the original matrix.
The inverse of every orthogonal matrix is again orthogonal, as is the matrix product of two orthogonal matrices. In fact, the set of all n × n orthogonal matrices satisfies all the axioms of a group. It is a compact Lie group of dimension n(n − 1) / 2 , called the orthogonal group and denoted by O(n).
In the case that A or D is singular, substituting a generalized inverse for the inverses on M/A and M/D yields the generalized Schur complement. The Schur complement is named after Issai Schur [1] who used it to prove Schur's lemma, although it had been used previously. [2] Emilie Virginia Haynsworth was the first to call it the Schur ...
In linear algebra, an invertible complex square matrix U is unitary if its matrix inverse U −1 equals its conjugate transpose U *, that is, if = =, where I is the identity matrix.. In physics, especially in quantum mechanics, the conjugate transpose is referred to as the Hermitian adjoint of a matrix and is denoted by a dagger ( † ), so the equation above is written
