AI Thread Summary

To solve the set of six linear equations with six variables (Aup, Adown, Bup, Bdown, Cup, and Cdown), Gaussian elimination is recommended as an effective method. This technique systematically reduces the equations to a simpler form, making it easier to isolate and solve for each variable. Users can apply matrix representation of the equations to facilitate the elimination process. Additionally, utilizing computational tools or software can streamline the calculations involved. Overall, Gaussian elimination is a reliable approach for solving such systems of equations.

I have 6 equations and 6 variables I want to solve for:

What would be the best way to go about solving for Aup, Adown, Bup, Bdown, Cup, and Cdown.

Thanks.

The equations are linear in these 6 variables, so Gaussian elimination should do it.

Thread 'Non-orthogonal bases'

Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...

Thread 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
