  2. Category of matrices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_of_matrices

    The category of matrices is equivalent to the category of finite-dimensional real vector spaces and linear maps. This is witnessed by the functor mapping the number n {\displaystyle n} to the vector space R n {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{n}} , and an n × m {\displaystyle n\times m} matrix to the corresponding linear map R m → R n ...

  3. List of named matrices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_named_matrices

    Several important classes of matrices are subsets of each other. This article lists some important classes of matrices used in mathematics, science and engineering. A matrix (plural matrices, or less commonly matrixes) is a rectangular array of numbers called entries. Matrices have a long history of both study and application, leading to ...

  4. 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.

  6. Block matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_matrix

    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.

  7. Group representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_representation

    Every group G can be viewed as a category with a single object; morphisms in this category are just the elements of G. Given an arbitrary category C, a representation of G in C is a functor from G to C. Such a functor selects an object X in C and a group homomorphism from G to Aut(X), the automorphism group of X.

  8. Skeleton (category theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton_(category_theory)

    The category Set of all sets has the subcategory of all cardinal numbers as a skeleton.; The category K-Vect of all vector spaces over a fixed field has the subcategory consisting of all powers (), where α is any cardinal number, as a skeleton; for any finite m and n, the maps are exactly the n × m matrices with entries in K.

  9. Semi-simplicity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-simplicity

    In mathematics, semi-simplicity is a widespread concept in disciplines such as linear algebra, abstract algebra, representation theory, category theory, and algebraic geometry. A semi-simple object is one that can be decomposed into a sum of simple objects, and simple objects are those that do not contain non-trivial proper sub-objects.
