Cramer's rule is used in the Ricci calculus in various calculations involving the Christoffel symbols of the first and second kind. [14] In particular, Cramer's rule can be used to prove that the divergence operator on a Riemannian manifold is invariant with respect to change of coordinates. We give a direct proof, suppressing the role of the ...
In mathematics, a unimodular matrix M is a square integer matrix having determinant +1 or −1. Equivalently, it is an integer matrix that is invertible over the integers : there is an integer matrix N that is its inverse (these are equivalent under Cramer's rule ).
Consider the system of equations x + y + 2z = 3, x + y + z = 1, 2x + 2y + 2z = 2.. The coefficient matrix is = [], and the augmented matrix is (|) = [].Since both of these have the same rank, namely 2, there exists at least one solution; and since their rank is less than the number of unknowns, the latter being 3, there are infinitely many solutions.

The Möller–Trumbore ray-triangle intersection algorithm, named after its inventors Tomas Möller and Ben Trumbore, is a fast method for calculating the intersection of a ray and a triangle in three dimensions without needing precomputation of the plane equation of the plane containing the triangle.

By the Rouché–Capelli theorem, the system of equations is inconsistent, meaning it has no solutions, if the rank of the augmented matrix (the coefficient matrix augmented with an additional column consisting of the vector b) is greater than the rank of the coefficient matrix. If, on the other hand, the ranks of these two matrices are equal ...
The column space of a matrix A is the set of all linear combinations of the columns in A. If A = [a 1 ⋯ a n], then colsp(A) = span({a 1, ..., a n}). Given a matrix A, the action of the matrix A on a vector x returns a linear combination of the columns of A with the coordinates of x as coefficients; that is, the columns of the matrix generate ...
For example, if A is a 3-by-0 matrix and B is a 0-by-3 matrix, then AB is the 3-by-3 zero matrix corresponding to the null map from a 3-dimensional space V to itself, while BA is a 0-by-0 matrix. There is no common notation for empty matrices, but most computer algebra systems allow creating and computing with them.
