  2. Jacobian matrix and determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_matrix_and...

    Furthermore, if the Jacobian determinant at p is positive, then f preserves orientation near p; if it is negative, f reverses orientation. The absolute value of the Jacobian determinant at p gives us the factor by which the function f expands or shrinks volumes near p ; this is why it occurs in the general substitution rule .

  3. Jacobian conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_conjecture

    In mathematics, the Jacobian conjecture is a famous unsolved problem concerning polynomials in several variables. It states that if a polynomial function from an n -dimensional space to itself has Jacobian determinant which is a non-zero constant, then the function has a polynomial inverse.

  4. Stability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_theory

    Let J p (v) be the n×n Jacobian matrix of the vector field v at the point p. If all eigenvalues of J have strictly negative real part then the solution is asymptotically stable. This condition can be tested using the Routh–Hurwitz criterion.

    Lagrangian mechanics can only be applied to systems ... of kinetic energy as the (negative of ... is the Jacobian. In the coordinates ˙ and ˙, the ...

  6. Numerical continuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_continuation

    The same terminology applies. A regular solution is a solution at which the Jacobian is full rank (). A singular solution is a solution at which the Jacobian is less than full rank. A regular solution lies on a k-dimensional surface, which can be parameterized by a point in the tangent space (the null space of the Jacobian).

  7. Jacobi's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi's_formula

    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

  8. Jacobi operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_operator

    A Jacobi operator, also known as Jacobi matrix, is a symmetric linear operator acting on sequences which is given by an infinite tridiagonal matrix.It is commonly used to specify systems of orthonormal polynomials over a finite, positive Borel measure.

  9. Jacobian variety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_variety

    The Jacobian variety is named after Carl Gustav Jacobi, who proved the complete version of the Abel–Jacobi theorem, making the injectivity statement of Niels Abel into an isomorphism. It is a principally polarized abelian variety , of dimension g , and hence, over the complex numbers, it is a complex torus .
