  2. Gaussian elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_elimination

    A variant of Gaussian elimination called GaussJordan elimination can be used for finding the inverse of a matrix, if it exists. If A is an n × n square matrix, then one can use row reduction to compute its inverse matrix, if it exists. First, the n × n identity matrix is augmented to the right of A, forming an n × 2n block matrix [A | I]

  3. Jordan normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_normal_form

    The Jordan form is used to find a normal form of matrices up to conjugacy such that normal matrices make up an algebraic variety of a low fixed degree in the ambient matrix space. Sets of representatives of matrix conjugacy classes for Jordan normal form or rational canonical forms in general do not constitute linear or affine subspaces in the ...

  4. Row echelon form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_echelon_form

    The reduced row echelon form of a matrix is unique and does not depend on the sequence of elementary row operations used to obtain it. The variant of Gaussian elimination that transforms a matrix to reduced row echelon form is sometimes called GaussJordan elimination. A matrix is in column echelon form if its transpose is in

  5. Jordan matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_matrix

    Let () (that is, a n × n complex matrix) and () be the change of basis matrix to the Jordan normal form of A; that is, A = C −1 JC.Now let f (z) be a holomorphic function on an open set such that ; that is, the spectrum of the matrix is contained inside the domain of holomorphy of f.

  6. Elementary matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_matrix

    In mathematics, an elementary matrix is a square matrix obtained from the application of a single elementary row operation to the identity matrix. The elementary matrices generate the general linear group GL n ( F ) when F is a field .

  7. List of algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_algorithms

    GaussJordan elimination: solves systems of linear equations; Gauss–Seidel method: solves systems of linear equations iteratively; Levinson recursion: solves equation involving a Toeplitz matrix; Stone's method: also known as the strongly implicit procedure or SIP, is an algorithm for solving a sparse linear system of equations

  8. Discrete ordinates method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_Ordinates_Method

    It is possible to solve the resulting linear system directly with GaussJordan elimination, [2] but this is problematic due to the large memory requirement for storing the matrix of the linear system. Another way is to use iterative methods, where the required number of iterations for a given degree of accuracy depends on the strength of ...

  9. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    More generally, and applicable to all matrices, the Jordan decomposition transforms a matrix into Jordan normal form, that is to say matrices whose only nonzero entries are the eigenvalues λ 1 to λ n of A, placed on the main diagonal and possibly entries equal to one directly above the main diagonal, as shown at the right.
