  2. Pauli matrices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauli_matrices

    The fact that the Pauli matrices, along with the identity matrix I, form an orthogonal basis for the Hilbert space of all 2 × 2 complex matrices , over , means that we can express any 2 × 2 complex matrix M as = + where c is a complex number, and a is a 3-component, complex vector.

  3. Spinors in three dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinors_in_three_dimensions

    Given a unit vector in 3 dimensions, for example (a, b, c), one takes a dot product with the Pauli spin matrices to obtain a spin matrix for spin in the direction of the unit vector. The eigenvectors of that spin matrix are the spinors for spin-1/2 oriented in the direction given by the vector. Example: u = (0.8, -0.6, 0) is a unit vector ...

  4. Two-state quantum system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-state_quantum_system

    The matrix is the 2×2 identity matrix and the matrices with =,, are the Pauli matrices. This decomposition simplifies the analysis of the system, especially in the time-independent case, where the values of α , β , γ {\displaystyle \alpha ,\beta ,\gamma } and δ {\displaystyle \delta } are constants.

  5. Pauli group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauli_group

    The Möbius–Kantor graph, the Cayley graph of the Pauli group with generators X, Y, and Z In physics and mathematics , the Pauli group G 1 {\displaystyle G_{1}} on 1 qubit is the 16-element matrix group consisting of the 2 × 2 identity matrix I {\displaystyle I} and all of the Pauli matrices

  6. Matrix completion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_completion

    The high rank matrix completion in general is NP-Hard. However, with certain assumptions, some incomplete high rank matrix or even full rank matrix can be completed. Eriksson, Balzano and Nowak [10] have considered the problem of completing a matrix with the assumption that the columns of the matrix belong to a union of multiple low-rank subspaces.

  7. Multiple correspondence analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_correspondence...

    The Burt table is the symmetric matrix of all two-way cross-tabulations between the categorical variables, and has an analogy to the covariance matrix of continuous variables. Analyzing the Burt table is a more natural generalization of simple correspondence analysis , and individuals or the means of groups of individuals can be added as ...

  8. Spinor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinor

    In three Euclidean dimensions, for instance, the Pauli spin matrices are a set of gamma matrices, [i] and the two-component complex column vectors on which these matrices act are spinors. However, the particular matrix representation of the Clifford algebra, hence what precisely constitutes a "column vector" (or spinor), involves the choice of ...

  9. Negative probability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_probability

    Similarly, in spectral graph theory, the eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix represent frequencies and eigenvectors form what is known as a graph Fourier basis substituting the classical Fourier transform in the graph-based signal processing.
