Kernel (linear algebra)

In mathematics, the kernel of a linear map, also known as the null space or nullspace, is the part of the domain which is mapped to the zero vector of the co-domain; the kernel is always a linear subspace of the domain. That is, given a linear map L...

Trace (linear algebra)

In linear algebra, the trace of a square matrix A, denoted tr(A), is defined as a sum of the elements on its main diagonal, a11+a22+⋯+ann. It is only defined for a square matrix (n × n). It can be shown that the trace of a matrix is equal to the...

Transpose

In linear algebra, transposition is an operation that flips a matrix over its diagonal; that is, transposition switches the row and column indices of the matrix A to produce another matrix, called the transpose of A and often denoted AT (among other...

Associative algebra

In mathematics, an associative algebra A over a commutative ring (often a field) K is a ring A together with a ring homomorphism from K into the center of A. This is thus an algebraic structure with an addition, a multiplication, and a scalar...
