  2. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    For example, a 2,1 represents the element at the second row and first column of the matrix. In mathematics, a matrix (pl.: matrices) is a rectangular array or table of numbers, symbols, or expressions, with elements or entries arranged in rows and columns, which is used to represent a mathematical object or property of such an object.

  3. Determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant

    In mathematics, the determinant is a scalar-valued function of the entries of a square matrix.The determinant of a matrix A is commonly denoted det(A), det A, or | A |.Its value characterizes some properties of the matrix and the linear map represented, on a given basis, by the matrix.

  4. Analytic function of a matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_function_of_a_matrix

    In mathematics, every analytic function can be used for defining a matrix function that maps square matrices with complex entries to square matrices of the same size. This is used for defining the exponential of a matrix , which is involved in the closed-form solution of systems of linear differential equations .

  5. Trace (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_(linear_algebra)

    Using the definition of trace as the sum of diagonal elements, the matrix formula tr(AB) = tr(BA) is straightforward to prove, and was given above. In the present perspective, one is considering linear maps S and T , and viewing them as sums of rank-one maps, so that there are linear functionals φ i and ψ j and nonzero vectors v i and w j ...

  6. Cramer's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramer's_rule

    In linear algebra, Cramer's rule is an explicit formula for the solution of a system of linear equations with as many equations as unknowns, valid whenever the system has a unique solution. It expresses the solution in terms of the determinants of the (square) coefficient matrix and of matrices obtained from it by replacing one column by the ...

  7. Rule of Sarrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_Sarrus

    Rule of Sarrus: The determinant of the three columns on the left is the sum of the products along the down-right diagonals minus the sum of the products along the up-right diagonals.

  8. Matrix analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_analysis

    In mathematics, particularly in linear algebra and applications, matrix analysis is the study of matrices and their algebraic properties. [1] Some particular topics out of many include; operations defined on matrices (such as matrix addition, matrix multiplication and operations derived from these), functions of matrices (such as matrix exponentiation and matrix logarithm, and even sines and ...

  9. Matrix exponential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_exponential

    For matrix-matrix exponentials, there is a distinction between the left exponential Y X and the right exponential X Y, because the multiplication operator for matrix-to-matrix is not commutative. Moreover, If X is normal and non-singular, then X Y and Y X have the same set of eigenvalues. If X is normal and non-singular, Y is normal, and XY ...
