Mode-k Multiplication
In multilinear algebra, applying a map that is the tensor product of linear maps to a tensor is called a multilinear multiplication. Abstract definition Let F be a field of characteristic zero, such as \mathbb or \mathbb . Let V_k be a finite-dimensional vector space over F, and let \mathcal \in V_1 \otimes V_2 \otimes \cdots \otimes V_d be an order-d simple tensor, i.e., there exist some vectors \mathbf_k \in V_k such that \mathcal = \mathbf_1 \otimes \mathbf_2 \otimes \cdots \otimes \mathbf_d. If we are given a collection of linear maps A_k : V_k \to W_k, then the multilinear multiplication of \mathcal with (A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_d) is defined as the action on \mathcal of the tensor product of these linear maps, namely \begin A_1 \otimes A_2 \otimes \cdots \otimes A_d : V_1 \otimes V_2 \otimes \cdots \otimes V_d & \to W_1 \otimes W_2 \otimes \cdots \otimes W_d, \\ \mathbf_1 \otimes \mathbf_2 \otimes \cdots \otimes \mathbf_d & \mapsto A_1(\mathbf_1) \otimes A_2(\mathbf ...

Multilinear Algebra
Multilinear algebra is a subfield of mathematics that extends the methods of linear algebra. Just as linear algebra is built on the concept of a vector and develops the theory of vector spaces, multilinear algebra builds on the concepts of ''p''-vectors and multivectors with Grassmann algebras. Origin In a vector space of dimension ''n'', normally only vectors are used. However, according to Hermann Grassmann and others, this presumption misses the complexity of considering the structures of pairs, triplets, and general multi-vectors. With several combinatorial possibilities, the space of multi-vectors has 2''n'' dimensions. The abstract formulation of the determinant is the most immediate application. Multilinear algebra also has applications in the mechanical study of material response to stress and strain with various moduli of elasticity. This practical reference led to the use of the word tensor, to describe the elements of the multilinear space. The extra structure in a ...

Tensor Product
In mathematics, the tensor product V \otimes W of two vector spaces and (over the same field) is a vector space to which is associated a bilinear map V\times W \to V\otimes W that maps a pair (v,w),\ v\in V, w\in W to an element of V \otimes W denoted v \otimes w. An element of the form v \otimes w is called the tensor product of and . An element of V \otimes W is a tensor, and the tensor product of two vectors is sometimes called an ''elementary tensor'' or a ''decomposable tensor''. The elementary tensors span V \otimes W in the sense that every element of V \otimes W is a sum of elementary tensors. If bases are given for and , a basis of V \otimes W is formed by all tensor products of a basis element of and a basis element of . The tensor product of two vector spaces captures the properties of all bilinear maps in the sense that a bilinear map from V\times W into another vector space factors uniquely through a linear map V\otimes W\to Z (see Universal property).

Tensor
In mathematics, a tensor is an algebraic object that describes a multilinear relationship between sets of algebraic objects related to a vector space. Tensors may map between different objects such as vectors, scalars, and even other tensors. There are many types of tensors, including scalars and vectors (which are the simplest tensors), dual vectors, multilinear maps between vector spaces, and even some operations such as the dot product. Tensors are defined independent of any basis, although they are often referred to by their components in a basis related to a particular coordinate system. Tensors have become important in physics because they provide a concise mathematical framework for formulating and solving physics problems in areas such as mechanics (stress, elasticity, fluid mechanics, moment of inertia, ...), electrodynamics (electromagnetic tensor, Maxwell tensor, permittivity, magnetic susceptibility, ...), general relativity ( stress–energy tensor, cur ...

Tensor Rank Decomposition
In multilinear algebra, the tensor rank decomposition or the rank-R decomposition of a tensor is the decomposition of a tensor in terms of a sum of minimum R rank-1 tensors. This is an open problem. Canonical polyadic decomposition (CPD) is a variant of the rank decomposition which computes the best fitting K rank-1 terms for a user specified K. The CP decomposition has found some applications in linguistics and chemometrics. The CP rank was introduced by Frank Lauren Hitchcock in 1927 and later rediscovered several times, notably in psychometrics. The CP decomposition is referred to as CANDECOMP, PARAFAC, or CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP). Another popular generalization of the matrix SVD known as the higher-order singular value decomposition computes orthonormal mode matrices and has found applications in econometrics, signal processing, computer vision, computer graphics, psychometrics.

Inner Product Space
In mathematics, an inner product space (or, rarely, a Hausdorff pre-Hilbert space) is a real vector space or a complex vector space with an operation called an inner product. The inner product of two vectors in the space is a scalar, often denoted with angle brackets such as in \langle a, b \rangle. Inner products allow formal definitions of intuitive geometric notions, such as lengths, angles, and orthogonality (zero inner product) of vectors. Inner product spaces generalize Euclidean vector spaces, in which the inner product is the dot product or ''scalar product'' of Cartesian coordinates. Inner product spaces of infinite dimension are widely used in functional analysis. Inner product spaces over the field of complex numbers are sometimes referred to as unitary spaces. The first usage of the concept of a vector space with an inner product is due to Giuseppe Peano, in 1898. An inner product naturally induces an associated norm, (denoted , x, and , y, in the picture); so, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dual Vector Space
In mathematics, any vector space ''V'' has a corresponding dual vector space (or just dual space for short) consisting of all linear forms on ''V'', together with the vector space structure of pointwise addition and scalar multiplication by constants. The dual space as defined above is defined for all vector spaces, and to avoid ambiguity may also be called the . When defined for a topological vector space, there is a subspace of the dual space, corresponding to continuous linear functionals, called the ''continuous dual space''. Dual vector spaces find application in many branches of mathematics that use vector spaces, such as in tensor analysis with finite-dimensional vector spaces. When applied to vector spaces of functions (which are typically infinite-dimensional), dual spaces are used to describe measures, distributions, and Hilbert spaces. Consequently, the dual space is an important concept in functional analysis. Early terms for ''dual'' include ''polarer Raum'' ahn 1 ...

Segre Map
In mathematics, the Segre embedding is used in projective geometry to consider the cartesian product (of sets) of two projective spaces as a projective variety. It is named after Corrado Segre. Definition The Segre map may be defined as the map :\sigma: P^n \times P^m \to P^\ taking a pair of points ( \in P^n \times P^m to their product :\sigma:( _0:X_1:\cdots:X_n _0:Y_1:\cdots:Y_m \mapsto _0Y_0: X_0Y_1: \cdots :X_iY_j: \cdots :X_nY_m (the ''XiYj'' are taken in lexicographical order). Here, P^n and P^m are projective vector spaces over some arbitrary field, and the notation : _0:X_1:\cdots:X_n is that of homogeneous coordinates on the space. The image of the map is a variety, called a Segre variety. It is sometimes written as \Sigma_. Discussion In the language of linear algebra, for given vector spaces ''U'' and ''V'' over the same field ''K'', there is a natural way to map their cartesian product to their tensor product. : \varphi: U\times V \to U\otimes V.\ In ...

Kronecker Delta
In mathematics, the Kronecker delta (named after Leopold Kronecker) is a function of two variables, usually just non-negative integers. The function is 1 if the variables are equal, and 0 otherwise: \delta_ = \begin 0 &\text i \neq j, \\ 1 &\text i=j. \end or with use of Iverson brackets: \delta_ = =j, where the Kronecker delta is a piecewise function of variables and . For example, , whereas . The Kronecker delta appears naturally in many areas of mathematics, physics and engineering, as a means of compactly expressing its definition above. In linear algebra, the identity matrix has entries equal to the Kronecker delta: I_ = \delta_ where and take the values , and the inner product of vectors can be written as \mathbf\cdot\mathbf = \sum_^n a_\delta_b_ = \sum_^n a_ b_. Here the Euclidean vectors are defined as -tuples: \mathbf = (a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n) and \mathbf= (b_1, b_2, ..., b_n) and the last step is obtained by using the values of the Kronecker delta ...

Linear Map
In mathematics, and more specifically in linear algebra, a linear map (also called a linear mapping, linear transformation, vector space homomorphism, or in some contexts linear function) is a Map (mathematics), mapping V \to W between two vector spaces that preserves the operations of vector addition and scalar multiplication. The same names and the same definition are also used for the more general case of module (mathematics), modules over a ring (mathematics), ring; see Module homomorphism. If a linear map is a bijection then it is called a . In the case where V = W, a linear map is called a (linear) ''endomorphism''. Sometimes the term refers to this case, but the term "linear operator" can have different meanings for different conventions: for example, it can be used to emphasize that V and W are Real number, real vector spaces (not necessarily with V = W), or it can be used to emphasize that V is a function space, which is a common convention in functional analysis.

The composition of functions is a special case of the composition of relations, sometimes also denoted by \circ.
