Other Matrix-related Terms and Definitions
- Jordan canonical form — an 'almost' diagonalised matrix, where the only non-zero elements appear on the lead and super-diagonals.
- Linear independence — two or more vectors are linearly independent if there is no way to construct one from linear combinations of the others.
- Matrix exponential — defined by the exponential series.
- Matrix representation of conic sections
- Pseudoinverse — a generalization of the inverse matrix.
- Quaternionic matrix - matrix using quaternions as numbers
- Row echelon form — a matrix in this form is the result of applying the forward elimination procedure to a matrix (as used in Gaussian elimination).
- Wronskian — the determinant of a matrix of functions and their derivatives such that row n is the (n-1)th derivative of row one.

Famous quotes containing the words terms and/or definitions:
“The very natural tendency to use terms derived from traditional grammar like verb, noun, adjective, passive voice, in describing languages outside of Indo-European is fraught with grave possibilities of misunderstanding.”
—Benjamin Lee Whorf (1897–1934)
“What I do not like about our definitions of genius is that there is in them nothing of the day of judgment, nothing of resounding through eternity and nothing of the footsteps of the Almighty.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
