  2. Jacobian matrix and determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Jacobian_matrix_and_determinant

    The Jacobian determinant is sometimes simply referred to as "the Jacobian". The Jacobian determinant at a given point gives important information about the behavior of f near that point. For instance, the continuously differentiable function f is invertible near a point p ∈ R n if the Jacobian determinant at p is non-zero. This is the inverse ...

  3. Jacobian conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_conjecture

    The obvious analogue of the Jacobian conjecture fails if k has characteristic p > 0 even for one variable. The characteristic of a field, if it is not zero, must be prime, so at least 2. The polynomial x − x p has derivative 1 − p x p−1 which is 1 (because px is 0) but it has no inverse function.

  4. Inverse function theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function_theorem

    For functions of more than one variable, the theorem states that if is a continuously differentiable function from an open subset of into , and the derivative ′ is invertible at a point a (that is, the determinant of the Jacobian matrix of f at a is non-zero), then there exist neighborhoods of in and of = such that () and : is bijective.

  5. Proofs related to chi-squared distribution - Wikipedia

    Here is one based on the distribution with 1 degree of freedom. Suppose that X {\displaystyle X} and Y {\displaystyle Y} are two independent variables satisfying X ∼ χ 1 2 {\displaystyle X\sim \chi _{1}^{2}} and Y ∼ χ 1 2 {\displaystyle Y\sim \chi _{1}^{2}} , so that the probability density functions of X {\displaystyle X} and Y ...

  6. Determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant

    This is a consequence of multilinearity and being alternative: by multilinearity the determinant changes by a multiple of the determinant of a matrix with two equal columns, which determinant is 0, since the determinant is alternating.

  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. Companion matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Companion_matrix

    Setting the initial values of the sequence equal to this vector produces a geometric sequence = which satisfies the recurrence. In the case of n distinct eigenvalues, an arbitrary solution a k {\displaystyle a_{k}} can be written as a linear combination of such geometric solutions, and the eigenvalues of largest complex norm give an asymptotic ...

  9. Wishart distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wishart_distribution

    This relationship may be derived by noting that the absolute value of the Jacobian determinant of this change of variables is |C| p+1, see for example equation (15.15) in. [25] In Bayesian statistics , the Wishart distribution is a conjugate prior for the precision parameter of the multivariate normal distribution , when the mean parameter is ...
