Convergent Matrix
In linear algebra, a convergent matrix is a matrix that converges to the zero matrix under Matrix multiplication#Powers of a matrix, matrix exponentiation. Background When successive powers of a matrix (mathematics), matrix T become small (that is, when all of the entries of T approach zero, upon raising T to successive powers), the matrix T converges to the zero matrix. A matrix splitting, regular splitting of a invertible matrix, non-singular matrix A results in a convergent matrix T. A semi-convergent splitting of a matrix A results in a semi-convergent matrix T. A general iterative method converges for every initial vector if T is convergent, and under certain conditions if T is semi-convergent. Definition We call an ''n'' × ''n'' matrix T a convergent matrix if for each ''i'' = 1, 2, ..., ''n'' and ''j'' = 1, 2, ..., ''n''. Example Let :\begin & \mathbf = \begin \frac & \frac \\[4pt] 0 & \frac \end. \end Computing successive powers of T, we obtain :\begin & \mathb ...

Linear Algebra
Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerning linear equations such as: :a_1x_1+\cdots +a_nx_n=b, linear maps such as: :(x_1, \ldots, x_n) \mapsto a_1x_1+\cdots +a_nx_n, and their representations in vector spaces and through matrices. Linear algebra is central to almost all areas of mathematics. For instance, linear algebra is fundamental in modern presentations of geometry, including for defining basic objects such as lines, planes and rotations. Also, functional analysis, a branch of mathematical analysis, may be viewed as the application of linear algebra to spaces of functions. Linear algebra is also used in most sciences and fields of engineering, because it allows modeling many natural phenomena, and computing efficiently with such models. For nonlinear systems, which cannot be modeled with linear algebra, it is often used for dealing with first-order approximations, using the fact that the differential of a multivariate function at a point is the linear ma ...

List Of Matrices
This article lists some important classes of matrices used in mathematics, science and engineering. A matrix (plural matrices, or less commonly matrixes) is a rectangular array of numbers called ''entries''. Matrices have a long history of both study and application, leading to diverse ways of classifying matrices. A first group is matrices satisfying concrete conditions of the entries, including constant matrices. Important examples include the identity matrix given by : I_n = \begin 1 & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & \cdots & 0 \\ \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ 0 & 0 & \cdots & 1 \end. and the zero matrix of dimension m \times n. For example: : O_ = \begin 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \end. Further ways of classifying matrices are according to their eigenvalues, or by imposing conditions on the product of the matrix with other matrices. Finally, many domains, both in mathematics and other sciences including physics and chemistry, have particular matrices that are applied chiefly in ...

Successive Over-relaxation
In numerical linear algebra, the method of successive over-relaxation (SOR) is a variant of the Gauss–Seidel method for solving a linear system of equations, resulting in faster convergence. A similar method can be used for any slowly converging iterative process. It was devised simultaneously by David M. Young Jr. and by Stanley P. Frankel in 1950 for the purpose of automatically solving linear systems on digital computers. Over-relaxation methods had been used before the work of Young and Frankel. An example is the method of Lewis Fry Richardson, and the methods developed by R. V. Southwell. However, these methods were designed for computation by human calculators, requiring some expertise to ensure convergence to the solution which made them inapplicable for programming on digital computers. These aspects are discussed in the thesis of David M. Young Jr. Formulation Given a square system of ''n'' linear equations with unknown x: :A\mathbf x = \mathbf b where: :A=\begin ...

Nilpotent Matrix
In linear algebra, a nilpotent matrix is a square matrix ''N'' such that :N^k = 0\, for some positive integer k. The smallest such k is called the index of N, sometimes the degree of N. More generally, a nilpotent transformation is a linear transformation L of a vector space such that L^k = 0 for some positive integer k (and thus, L^j = 0 for all j \geq k). Both of these concepts are special cases of a more general concept of nilpotence that applies to elements of rings. Examples Example 1 The matrix : A = \begin 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \end is nilpotent with index 2, since A^2 = 0. Example 2 More generally, any n-dimensional triangular matrix with zeros along the main diagonal is nilpotent, with index \le n . For example, the matrix : B=\begin 0 & 2 & 1 & 6\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 2\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 3\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \end is nilpotent, with : B^2=\begin 0 & 0 & 2 & 7\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 3\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \end ;\ B^3=\begin 0 & 0 & 0 & 6\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & ...

Jacobi Method
In numerical linear algebra, the Jacobi method is an iterative algorithm for determining the solutions of a strictly diagonally dominant system of linear equations. Each diagonal element is solved for, and an approximate value is plugged in. The process is then iterated until it converges. This algorithm is a stripped-down version of the Jacobi transformation method of matrix diagonalization. The method is named after Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi. Description Let :A\mathbf x = \mathbf b be a square system of ''n'' linear equations, where: A = \begin a_ & a_ & \cdots & a_ \\ a_ & a_ & \cdots & a_ \\ \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\a_ & a_ & \cdots & a_ \end, \qquad \mathbf = \begin x_ \\ x_2 \\ \vdots \\ x_n \end , \qquad \mathbf = \begin b_ \\ b_2 \\ \vdots \\ b_n \end. Then ''A'' can be decomposed into a diagonal component ''D'', a lower triangular part ''L'' and an upper triangular part ''U'': :A=D+L+U \qquad \text \qquad D = \begin a_ & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\ 0 & a_ & \cdot ...
