chiro said:Hey Artusartos.
Are you just trying to find the linear transformation given those properties of how v1 and v2 maps to v1' and v2'?
chiro said:I think (but am not certain) that this is just an example transformation.

A transition matrix is a square matrix that represents a linear transformation from one vector space to another. It is used to describe how one set of coordinates or basis vectors can be transformed into another set of coordinates or basis vectors.
To solve for X[T]X, you can use the properties of matrix multiplication and transpose. First, multiply the transpose of X with X to get a square matrix. Then, you can use methods like Gaussian elimination or matrix inversion to solve for the values of X.
T(v_1)=v_2 represents the transformation of a vector v_1 to a new vector v_2 using the transition matrix T. This transformation allows us to change the basis of a vector space, which is useful in solving problems in linear algebra and other fields of mathematics.
No, a transition matrix can only have numerical elements since it is a mathematical object used for transformations. However, these numerical elements can represent any type of data, such as real numbers, complex numbers, or even binary numbers.
Transition matrices have various applications in fields such as physics, engineering, and computer science. They can be used in image processing to transform images, in economics to model changes in economic systems, and in machine learning to represent neural networks. They are also useful in analyzing Markov chains and solving problems in quantum mechanics.
