Matrices


In mathematics and computer science, the adjacency matrix for a finite graph G on n vertices is an n × n matrix where the nondiagonal entry aij is the number of edges joining vertex i and vertex j, and the diagonal entry aii is either twice the number of loops at vertex i or just the number of loops (usages differ; this article follows the former; directed graphs always follow the latter). There exists a unique adjacency matrix for each graph, and it is not the adjacency matrix of any other graph. In the special case of a finite, simple graph, the adjacency matrix is a (0,1)-matrix with zeros on its diagonal. If the graph is undirected, the adjacency matrix is symmetric. ...more on Wikipedia about "Adjacency matrix"

In mathematics and computer science, the biadjacency matrix for a finite bipartite graph G with n black vertices and m white vertices is an n × m matrix where the entry aij is the number of edges joining black vertex i and white vertex j. In the special case of a finite, undirected simple bipartite graph, the biadjacency matrix is a (0,1)-matrix. ...more on Wikipedia about "Biadjacency matrix" This text is made on www.shortopedia.com Matrices

A binary matrix or (0,1)-matrix is a matrix whose entries are all either zero or one. ...more on Wikipedia about "Binary matrix"

In the mathematical discipline of matrix theory, a block matrix or a partitioned matrix is a partition of a matrix into rectangular smaller matrices called blocks. Looking at it another way, the matrix is written in terms of smaller matrices written side-by-side. A block matrix must conform to a consistent way of splitting up the rows, and the columns: we group the rows into some adjacent 'bunches', and the columns likewise. The partition is into the rectangles described by one bunch of adjacent rows crossing one bunch of adjacent columns. In other words, the matrix is split up by some horizontal and vertical lines that go all the way across. ...more on Wikipedia about "Block matrix"

In mathematics, the term Cartan matrix has two meanings. Both of these are named after Elie Cartan. ...more on Wikipedia about "Cartan matrix"

In linear algebra, a circulant matrix is a special kind of Toeplitz matrix where each row vector is shifted one element to the right relative to the preceding row vector. In other words a circulant matrix is an example of a Latin square. In numerical analysis circulant matrices are important because they can be quickly solved using the discrete Fourier transform. ...more on Wikipedia about "Circulant matrix"

In the standard model of particle physics the Cabibbo Kobayashi Maskawa matrix (CKM matrix, sometimes earlier called KM matrix) is a unitary matrix which contains information on the strength of flavour changing weak decays. Technically, it specifies the mismatch of quantum states of quarks when they propagate freely and when they take part in the weak interactions. It is important in the understanding of CP violations. A precise mathematical definition of this matrix is given in the article on the formulation of the standard model. This matrix was introduced for three generations of quarks by Makoto Kobayashi and Toshihide Maskawa, adding one generation to the matrix previously introduced by Nicola Cabibbo. ...more on Wikipedia about "CKM matrix"

In linear algebra, a diagonal matrix is a square matrix in which the entries outside the main diagonal are all zero. The diagonal entries themselves may or may not be zero. Thus, the matrix D = (di,j) with ...more on Wikipedia about "Diagonal 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 map T : VV is called diagonalizable if there exists a basis of V with respect to which T is represented by a diagonal matrix. Diagonalization is the process of finding a corresponding diagonal matrix for a diagonalizable matrix or linear map. ...more on Wikipedia about "Diagonalizable matrix"

In mathematics, a distance matrix is a matrix (two-dimensional array) containing the distances, taken pairwise, of a set of points. It is therefore a symmetric N×N matrix containing non-negative reals as elements, given N points in Euclidean space. The number of pairs of points N×(N-1)/2 is the number of independent elements in the distance matrix. ...more on Wikipedia about "Distance matrix" http://www.shortopedia.com Dreamteam.
