Matrix exponential — In mathematics, the matrix exponential is a matrix function on square matrices analogous to the ordinary exponential function. Abstractly, the matrix exponential gives the connection between a matrix Lie algebra and the corresponding Lie group.… … Wikipedia
Diagonalizable matrix — In linear algebra, a square matrix A is called diagonalizable if it is similar to a diagonal matrix, i.e., if there exists an invertible matrix P such that P −1AP is a diagonal matrix. If V is a finite dimensional vector space, then a linear … Wikipedia
Jordan matrix — In the mathematical discipline of matrix theory, a Jordan block over a ring R (whose identities are the zero 0 and one 1) is a matrix which is composed of 0 elements everywhere except for the diagonal, which is filled with a fixed element… … Wikipedia
Rotation matrix — In linear algebra, a rotation matrix is a matrix that is used to perform a rotation in Euclidean space. For example the matrix rotates points in the xy Cartesian plane counterclockwise through an angle θ about the origin of the Cartesian… … Wikipedia

Eigenvalue algorithm — In linear algebra, one of the most important problems is designing efficient and stable algorithms for finding the eigenvalues of a matrix. These eigenvalue algorithms may also find eigenvectors. Contents 1 Characteristic polynomial 2 Power… … Wikipedia
Perron–Frobenius theorem — In linear algebra, the Perron–Frobenius theorem, proved by Oskar Perron (1907) and Georg Frobenius (1912), asserts that a real square matrix with positive entries has a unique largest real eigenvalue and that the corresponding… … Wikipedia
