  2. Consistent and inconsistent equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistent_and...

    The system + =, + = has exactly one solution: x = 1, y = 2 The nonlinear system + =, + = has the two solutions (x, y) = (1, 0) and (x, y) = (0, 1), while + + =, + + =, + + = has an infinite number of solutions because the third equation is the first equation plus twice the second one and hence contains no independent information; thus any value of z can be chosen and values of x and y can be ...

  3. Uncertainty principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_principle

    where = is the reduced Planck constant.. The quintessentially quantum mechanical uncertainty principle comes in many forms other than position–momentum. The energy–time relationship is widely used to relate quantum state lifetime to measured energy widths but its formal derivation is fraught with confusing issues about the nature of time.

  4. Overdetermined system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overdetermined_system

    For the system =, the least squares formula is obtained from the problem ‖ ‖, the solution of which can be written with the normal equations, [3] = (), where indicates a matrix transpose, provided exists (that is, provided A has full column rank). With this formula an approximate solution is found when no exact solution exists, and it gives ...

  5. Rank (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank_(linear_algebra)

    One useful application of calculating the rank of a matrix is the computation of the number of solutions of a system of linear equations. According to the Rouché–Capelli theorem, the system is inconsistent if the rank of the augmented matrix is greater than the rank of the coefficient matrix. If on the other hand, the ranks of these two ...

  6. Underdetermined system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underdetermined_system

    It is inconsistent if and only if 0 = 1 is a linear combination (with polynomial coefficients) of the equations (this is Hilbert's Nullstellensatz). If an underdetermined system of t equations in n variables (t < n) has solutions, then the set of all complex solutions is an algebraic set of dimension at least n - t.

  7. List of statements independent of ZFC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_statements...

    [12] [13] Consider the ring A = R [ x , y , z ] of polynomials in three variables over the real numbers and its field of fractions M = R ( x , y , z ). The projective dimension of M as A -module is either 2 or 3, but it is independent of ZFC whether it is equal to 2; it is equal to 2 if and only if CH holds.

  8. Indeterminate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate_system

    Let the system of equations be written in matrix form as = where is the coefficient matrix, is the vector of unknowns, and is an vector of constants. In which case, if the system is indeterminate, then the infinite solution set is the set of all vectors generated by [4]

  9. Defining equation (physical chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defining_equation...

    Theoretical chemistry requires quantities from core physics, such as time, volume, temperature, and pressure.But the highly quantitative nature of physical chemistry, in a more specialized way than core physics, uses molar amounts of substance rather than simply counting numbers; this leads to the specialized definitions in this article.
