I A wonderful flow chart for taxonomy of matrices

Physics news on Phys.org


This flow chart is a fantastic visual representation of the taxonomy of matrices. It clearly outlines the different types of matrices and their relationships to each other, making it easier to understand and navigate the complex world of matrices.

The chart starts with the basic division of matrices into real and complex, and then further breaks them down into subcategories such as symmetric, skew-symmetric, and Hermitian matrices. It also includes important concepts such as diagonal and triangular matrices, as well as specific types like identity and zero matrices.

One of the most useful aspects of this flow chart is the inclusion of examples for each type of matrix. This not only helps to solidify understanding, but also serves as a helpful reference for future use.

Overall, this taxonomy of matrices flow chart is a valuable resource for anyone studying or working with matrices. It provides a clear and organized framework for understanding the different types of matrices and their properties. Thank you for sharing this helpful tool.
 

Thread '##(A/\mathfrak{a})_{\mathfrak{p}/\mathfrak{a}}## and its isomorphism?'

I asked online questions about Proposition 2.1.1: The answer I got is the following: I have some questions about the answer I got. When the person answering says: ##1.## Is the map ##\mathfrak{q}\mapsto \mathfrak{q} A _\mathfrak{p}## from ##A\setminus \mathfrak{p}\to A_\mathfrak{p}##? But I don't understand what the author meant for the rest of the sentence in mathematical notation: ##2.## In the next statement where the author says: How is ##A\to...

Thread 'Questions about non existence of GCDs vs (coimages, cokernels)'

The following are taken from the two sources, 1) from this online page and the book An Introduction to Module Theory by: Ibrahim Assem, Flavio U. Coelho. In the Abelian Categories chapter in the module theory text on page 157, right after presenting IV.2.21 Definition, the authors states "Image and coimage may or may not exist, but if they do, then they are unique up to isomorphism (because so are kernels and cokernels). Also in the reference url page above, the authors present two...

Thread 'Decomposition into irreps of compact Lie group'

When decomposing a representation ##\rho## of a finite group ##G## into irreducible representations, we can find the number of times the representation contains a particular irrep ##\rho_0## through the character inner product $$ \langle \chi, \chi_0\rangle = \frac{1}{|G|} \sum_{g\in G} \chi(g) \chi_0(g)^*$$ where ##\chi## and ##\chi_0## are the characters of ##\rho## and ##\rho_0##, respectively. Since all group elements in the same conjugacy class have the same characters, this may be...
