  2. Matrix differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_differential_equation

    To solve a matrix ODE according to the three steps detailed above, using simple matrices in the process, let us find, say, a function x and a function y both in terms of the single independent variable t, in the following homogeneous linear differential equation of the first order,

  3. Matrix polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_polynomial

    A matrix polynomial identity is a matrix polynomial equation which holds for all matrices A in a specified matrix ring M n (R). Matrix polynomials are often demonstrated in undergraduate linear algebra classes due to their relevance in showcasing properties of linear transformations represented as matrices, most notably the Cayley–Hamilton ...

    From this perspective, a matrix is a representation of a linear map: if one chooses a particular basis to describe the vectors being transformed, then the entries in the matrix give the results of applying the linear map to the basis vectors. [50] Linear equations with two variables can be interpreted geometrically as lines.

  5. Matrix exponential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_exponential

    For matrix-matrix exponentials, there is a distinction between the left exponential Y X and the right exponential X Y, because the multiplication operator for matrix-to-matrix is not commutative. Moreover, If X is normal and non-singular, then X Y and Y X have the same set of eigenvalues. If X is normal and non-singular, Y is normal, and XY ...

    Matrix multiplication is defined in such a way that the product of two matrices is the matrix of the composition of the corresponding linear maps, and the product of a matrix and a column matrix is the column matrix representing the result of applying the represented linear map to the represented vector. It follows that the theory of finite ...

    [a] This means that the function that maps y to f(x) + J(x) ⋅ (yx) is the best linear approximation of f(y) for all points y close to x. The linear map h → J(x) ⋅ h is known as the derivative or the differential of f at x. When m = n, the Jacobian matrix is square, so its determinant is a well-defined function of x, known as the ...

  8. Cramer's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramer's_rule

    Consider a system of n linear equations for n unknowns, represented in matrix multiplication form as follows: = where the n × n matrix A has a nonzero determinant, and the vector = (, …,) is the column vector of the variables. Then the theorem states that in this case the system has a unique solution, whose individual values for the unknowns ...

  9. Matrix decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_decomposition

    The system Q(Rx) = b is solved by Rx = Q T b = c, and the system Rx = c is solved by 'back substitution'. The number of additions and multiplications required is about twice that of using the LU solver, but no more digits are required in inexact arithmetic because the QR decomposition is numerically stable .
