Suzuki–Trotter Decomposition
In mathematics, the Lie product formula, named for Sophus Lie (1875), but also widely called the Trotter product formula, named after Hale Trotter, states that for arbitrary ''m'' × ''m'' real or complex matrices ''A'' and ''B'', e^ = \lim_ (e^e^)^n, where ''e''''A'' denotes the matrix exponential of ''A''. The Lie–Trotter product formula and the Trotter–Kato theorem extend this to certain unbounded linear operators ''A'' and ''B''. This formula is an analogue of the classical exponential law e^ = e^x e^y which holds for all real or complex numbers ''x'' and ''y''. If ''x'' and ''y'' are replaced with matrices ''A'' and ''B'', and the exponential replaced with a matrix exponential, it is usually necessary for ''A'' and ''B'' to commute for the law to still hold. However, the Lie product formula holds for all matrices ''A'' and ''B'', even ones which do not commute. The Lie product formula is conceptually related to the Baker–Campbell–Hausdorff formula, in that ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...
