The inverse of the discrete Fourier transform is given as: where formula_30 is the multiplicative inverse of formula_31 in formula_1 (if this inverse does not exist, the DFT cannot be inverted). Proof: Substituting (2) into the right-hand-side of (3), we get This is exactly equal to formula_34, because formula_35 when formula_36 (by (1) with formula_37), and formula_38 when formula_39. ∎ Since the discrete Fourier transform is a linear operator, it can be described by matrix multiplication. In matrix notation, the discrete Fourier transform

First notice that Now multiply the matrix we wish to invert by its alleged inverse: which verifies that it is the inverse. So we get that if A and formula_32 exist, then formula_33 exists and is given by the theorem above. If "p" = "q" and U = V = I is the identity matrix, then Remembering the identity we can also express the previous equation in the simpler form as Continuing with the merging of the

There exist matrix multiplication algorithms with a complexity of operations, while the best proven lower bound is . This formula simplifies significantly when the upper right block matrix formula_65 is the zero matrix. This formulation is useful when the matrices formula_6 and formula_67 have relatively simple inverse formulas (or pseudo inverses in the case where the blocks are not all square. In this special case, the block matrix inversion formula stated in full generality above becomes If a matrix A has the property that then A is nonsingular

neg: Inverse problem we have independent measurements (i.e. each measurement adds unique information to the system). It's important to note that in most physical systems, we do not ever have enough information to uniquely constrain our solutions because the observation matrix does not contain unique equations. From a linear algebra perspective, the matrix formula_3 is rank deficient (i.e. has zero eigenvalues), meaning that is not invertible. Further, if we add additional observations to our matrix (i.e. more equations), then the matrix formula_3 is no longer square. Even then, we're not guaranteed to have full-rank in the observation matrix. Therefore, most inverse problems are

Let Since formula_69 is not square, formula_69 has no regular inverse. However, formula_77 is a right inverse of formula_69. The matrix formula_69 has no left inverse. The following characterizations are easy to verify: Any generalized inverse can be used to determine whether a system of linear equations has any solutions, and if so to give all of them. If any solutions exist for the "n" × "m" linear system with vector formula_81 of unknowns and vector formula_82 of

Non-square matrices ("m"-by-"n" matrices for which ) do not have an inverse. However, in some cases such a matrix may have a left inverse or right inverse. If A is "m"-by-"n" and the rank of A is equal to "n", then A has a left inverse: an "n"-by-"m" matrix B such that . If A has rank "m", then it has a right inverse: an "n"-by-"m" matrix B such that . Matrix inversion is the process of finding the matrix B that satisfies

We find that, modulo 26, the inverse of the matrix used in the previous example is: Taking the previous example ciphertext of 'POH', we get: which gets us back to 'ACT', just as we hoped. We have not yet discussed two complications that exist in picking the encrypting matrix. Not all matrices have an inverse (see invertible matrix). The matrix will have an inverse if and only if its determinant is not zero. Also, in the case of the Hill

neg: Inverse element = "L" and "GLG" = "G" and one uniquely determines the other. They are not left or right inverses of each other however. A square matrix formula_34 with entries in a field formula_35 is invertible (in the set of all square matrices of the same size, under matrix multiplication) if and only if its determinant is different from zero. If the determinant of formula_34 is zero, it is impossible for it to have a one-sided inverse; therefore a left inverse or right inverse implies the existence of the other one. See invertible matrix for more. More generally, a square matrix

neg: Block matrix pseudoinverse Block matrix pseudoinverse In mathematics, a block matrix pseudoinverse is a formula for the pseudoinverse of a partitioned matrix. This is useful for decomposing or approximating many algorithms updating parameters in signal processing, which are based on the least squares method. Consider a column-wise partitioned matrix: If the above matrix is full rank, the Moore–Penrose inverse matrices of it and its transpose are This computation of the pseudoinverse requires ("n" + "p")-square matrix inversion and does not take advantage of the block form. To reduce computational costs to "n"- and "p"-square matrix inversions and to introduce parallelism, treating the blocks

neg: Invertible matrix the prior equation for a given invertible matrix A. While the most common case is that of matrices over the real or complex numbers, all these definitions can be given for matrices over any ring. However, in the case of the ring being commutative, the condition for a square matrix to be invertible is that its determinant is invertible in the ring, which in general is a stricter requirement than being nonzero. For a noncommutative ring, the usual determinant is not defined. The conditions for existence of left-inverse or right-inverse are more complicated since a notion of rank does not

The Fisher information matrix component formula_329 for the minimum "a" approaches infinity for exponent α approaching 2 from above, and the Fisher information matrix component formula_330 for the maximum "c" approaches infinity for exponent β approaching 2 from above. The Fisher information matrix for the four parameter case does not depend on the individual values of the minimum "a" and the maximum "c", but only on the total range ("c"−"a"). Moreover, the components of the Fisher information matrix that depend on the range ("c"−"a"), depend only through its inverse (or the square of the inverse), such that the Fisher

For a more general formula for which the matrix "C" need not be invertible or even square, see Binomial inverse theorem. When "C" is the 1-by-1 unit matrix, this identity reduces to the Sherman–Morrison formula. In the case when "C" is the identity matrix "I", the matrix formula_2 is known in numerical linear algebra and numerical partial differential equations as the capacitance matrix. For mere numbers, the identity reduces to the following relation of fractions The formula can be proven by checking that formula_4 times its alleged inverse on

neg: Nonnegative matrix the same as a positive-definite matrix. A matrix that is both non-negative and positive semidefinite is called a doubly non-negative matrix. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of square positive matrices are described by the Perron–Frobenius theorem. The inverse of any non-singular M-matrix is a non-negative matrix. If the non-singular M-matrix is also symmetric then it is called a Stieltjes matrix. The inverse of a non-negative matrix is usually not non-negative. The exception is the non-negative monomial matrices: a non-negative matrix has non-negative inverse if and only if it is a (non-negative) monomial matrix. Note that thus the inverse of a positive matrix

neg: Redheffer matrix 12 Redheffer matrix. In the split sum-of-matrices notation for formula_15, the entries below corresponding to the initial column of ones in formula_16 are marked in blue. A corresponding application of the Mobius inversion formula shows that the formula_2 Redheffer transpose matrix is always invertible, with inverse entries given by where formula_20 denotes the Moebius function. In this case, we have that the formula_21 inverse Redheffer transpose matrix is given by The determinant of the "n"x"n" square Redheffer matrix is given by the Mertens function "M"("n"). In particular, the matrix formula_1 is not invertible precisely when the Mertens function is zero

neg: Generalized inverse as an inverse in some sense for a wider class of matrices than invertible matrices. A generalized inverse exists for an arbitrary matrix, and when a matrix has a regular inverse, this inverse is its unique generalized inverse. Consider the linear system where formula_1 is an formula_9 matrix and formula_10, the column space of formula_1. If formula_1 is nonsingular (which implies formula_13) then formula_14 will be the solution of the system. Note that, if formula_1 is nonsingular, then Now suppose formula_1 is rectangular (formula_18), or square and singular. Then we need a right candidate formula_19 of order formula_20 such that

neg: Matrix multiplication matrices over fields, the product is not commutative in general, although it is associative and is distributive over matrix addition. The identity matrices (which are the square matrices whose entries are zero outside of the main diagonal and 1 on the main diagonal) are identity elements of the matrix product. It follows that the matrices over a ring form a ring, which is noncommutative except if and the ground ring is commutative. A square matrix may have a multiplicative inverse, called an inverse matrix. In the common case where the entries belong to a commutative ring , a matrix has

neg: Inverse-Wishart distribution probability density function of the inverse-Wishart distribution becomes i.e., the inverse-gamma distribution, where formula_62 is the ordinary Gamma function. A generalization is the inverse multivariate gamma distribution. Another generalization has been termed the generalized inverse Wishart distribution, formula_63. A formula_64 positive definite matrix formula_6 is said to be distributed as formula_66 if formula_67 is distributed as formula_68. Here formula_69 denotes the symmetric matrix square root of formula_6, the parameters formula_71 are formula_64 positive definite matrices, and the parameter formula_73 is a positive scalar larger than formula_74. Note that when formula_75 is equal to an identity matrix, formula_76. This generalized inverse

Let A be a square "n" by "n" matrix over a field "K" (for example the field R of real numbers). The following statements are equivalent, that is, for any given matrix they are either all true or all false: Furthermore, the following properties hold for an invertible matrix A: The rows of the inverse matrix V of a matrix U are orthonormal to the columns of U (and vice versa interchanging rows for columns).

Then, if formula_26, formula_27, and hence formula_1 is monotone. formula_13 The matrix formula_30 is monotone, with inverse formula_31. In fact, this matrix is an M-matrix (i.e., a monotone L-matrix). Note, however, that not all monotone matrices are M-matrices. An example is formula_32, whose inverse is formula_33. Monotone matrix A real square matrix formula_1 is monotone (in the sense of Collatz) if for all real vectors formula_2, formula_3 implies formula_4, where formula_5 is the element-wise order on formula_6. A monotone matrix is nonsingular. "Proof": Let formula_1 be a

neg: Matrix multiplication ring , which, in practice, is often a field. In formula_56, the product is defined for every pair of matrices. This makes formula_56 a ring, which has the identity matrix as identity element (the matrix whose diagonal entries are equal to 1 and all other entries are 0). This ring is also an associative -algebra. If , many matrices do not have a multiplicative inverse. For example, a matrix such that all entries of a row (or a column) are 0 does not have an inverse. If it exists, the inverse of a matrix is denoted , and, thus verifies

Newton's method is particularly useful when dealing with families of related matrices that behave enough like the sequence manufactured for the homotopy above: sometimes a good starting point for refining an approximation for the new inverse can be the already obtained inverse of a previous matrix that nearly matches the current matrix, for example, the pair of sequences of inverse matrices used in obtaining matrix square roots by Denman-Beavers iteration; this may need more

Then the inverse of is simply the transpose,

neg: Division (mathematics) the inverse of "B", but it is far more common to write out explicitly to avoid confusion. An elementwise division can also be defined in terms of the Hadamard product. Because matrix multiplication is not commutative, one can also define a left division or so-called "backslash-division" as . For this to be well defined, need not exist, however does need to exist. To avoid confusion, division as defined by is sometimes called "right division" or "slash-division" in this context. Note that with left and right division defined this way, is in general not the same as and nor is the

In other words, the inverse of a jacket matrix is determined its element-wise or block-wise inverse. The definition above may also be expressed as: The jacket matrix is a generalization of the Hadamard matrix,also it is a Diagonal block-wise inverse matrix. As shown in Table, i.e. in series, n=2 case, Forward: formula_5, Inverse : formula_6,

If the matrix also satisfies the second definition, it is called a generalized "reflexive" inverse. Generalized inverses always exist but are not in general unique. Uniqueness is a consequence of the last two conditions. The following identities can be used to cancel certain subexpressions or expand expressions involving pseudoinverses. Proofs for these properties can be found in the proofs subpage. The computation of the pseudoinverse is reducible to its construction in the Hermitian

Even if a function is not one-to-one, it may be possible to define a partial inverse of by restricting the domain. For example, the function is not one-to-one, since . However, the function becomes one-to-one if we restrict to the domain , in which case (If we instead restrict to the domain , then the inverse is the negative of the square root of .) Alternatively, there is no need to restrict the domain if

If solutions exist but "A" does not have full column rank, then we have an indeterminate system, all of whose infinitude of solutions are given by this last equation. For linear systems formula_218 with non-unique solutions (such as under-determined systems), the pseudoinverse may be used to construct the solution of minimum Euclidean norm formula_238 among all solutions. This result is easily extended to systems with multiple right-hand sides, when the Euclidean

Non-square matrices of full rank have several one-sided inverses: The left inverse can be used to determine the least norm solution of formula_43, which is also the least squares formula for regression and is given by formula_44 No rank deficient matrix has any (even one-sided) inverse. However, the Moore–Penrose inverse exists for all matrices, and coincides with the left or right (or true) inverse when it exists. As an example of matrix inverses, consider: So, as "m" < "n", we have a right

Minor (linear algebra) In linear algebra, a minor of a matrix A is the determinant of some smaller square matrix, cut down from A by removing one or more of its rows and columns. Minors obtained by removing just one row and one column from square matrices (first minors) are required for calculating matrix cofactors, which in turn are useful for computing both the determinant and inverse of square matrices. If A is a square matrix, then the minor

neg: Linear belief function a partial sweeping replaces the variance of "X" by its negative inverse and multiplies the inverse with other elements. If "X" is multidimensional, the operation involves the inverse of the covariance matrix of "X" and other multiplications. A swept matrix obtained from a partial sweeping on a subset of variables can be equivalently obtained by a sequence of partial sweepings on each individual variable in the subset and the order of the sequence does not matter. Similarly, a fully swept matrix is the result of partial sweepings on all variables. We can make two observations. First, after the partial sweeping

It is consequently a square root of the identity matrix. Note however that not all square roots of the identity are signature matrices. Noting that signature matrices are both symmetric and involutory, they are thus orthogonal. Consequently, any linear transformation corresponding to a signature matrix constitutes an isometry. Geometrically, signature matrices represent a reflection in each of the axes corresponding to the

Let "C" be the square 2×2 matrix To find the inverse of C we create ("C"|"I") where I is the 2×2 identity matrix. We then reduce the part of ("C"|"I") corresponding to "C" to the identity matrix using only elementary row operations on ("C"|"I"). the right part of which is the inverse of the original matrix.

For the cases where has full row or column rank, and the inverse of the correlation matrix (formula_55 for with full row rank or formula_54 for full column rank) is already known, the pseudoinverse for matrices related to formula_14 can be computed by applying the Sherman–Morrison–Woodbury formula to update the inverse of the correlation matrix, which may need less work. In particular, if the related matrix differs from the original one by only a changed, added or deleted row or column, incremental algorithms exist that

Yet another iterative method is obtained by taking the well-known formula of the Babylonian method for computing the square root of a real number, and applying it to matrices. Let "X" = "I", where "I" is the identity matrix. The iteration is defined by Again, convergence is not guaranteed, but if the process converges, the matrix formula_29 converges quadratically to a square root "A". Compared to Denman–Beavers iteration, an advantage of the Babylonian method is that only one

The determinant of a product of square matrices is the product of the determinants of the factors. The matrices that have an inverse form a group under matrix multiplication, the subgroups of which are called matrix groups. Many classical groups (including all finite groups) are isomorphic to matrix groups; this is the starting point of the theory of group representations. Computing matrix products is a central operation in all computational applications of linear algebra. Its computational complexity is (for matrices) for the basic algorithm (this complexity

In case that formula_22 is not a square matrix or it has no inverse, generalized inverse can applied, Since formula_20 is unknown, if it is set to formula_59, a approximate solution is obtained. On the above solution the result formula_72 is related to the unknown vector formula_20. Since formula_20 can be any values, this way the result formula_72 has very strong artifacts which is This kind of artifact is referred as truncation artifacts in the field of CT image reconstruction. In order to minimize the above artifacts of the solution, a special matrix formula_77 is

Assuming this, the inverse derivative formula follows from the chain rule applied to formula_35: Consider the vector-valued function formula_37 defined by: The Jacobian matrix is: with Jacobian determinant: The determinant formula_41 is nonzero everywhere. Thus the theorem guarantees that, for every point formula_12 in formula_43, there exists a neighborhood about formula_12 over which formula_9 is invertible. This does not mean formula_9 is

neg: Normal distribution of freedom: The first of these expressions shows that the variance of "s" is equal to , which is slightly greater than the "σσ"-element of the inverse Fisher information matrix formula_276. Thus, "s" is not an efficient estimator for "σ", and moreover, since "s" is UMVU, we can conclude that the finite-sample efficient estimator for "σ" does not exist. Applying the asymptotic theory, both estimators "s" and formula_281 are consistent, that is they converge in probability to "σ" as the sample size . The two estimators are also both asymptotically normal: In particular, both estimators are asymptotically efficient for "σ".

A matrix is a Frobenius matrix if it has the following three properties: The following matrix is an example. Frobenius matrices are invertible. The inverse of a Frobenius matrix is again a Frobenius matrix, equal to the original matrix with changed signs outside the main diagonal. The inverse of the example above is therefore: Frobenius matrices are named after Ferdinand Georg Frobenius. An alternative name for this class of matrices is Gauss transformation, after Carl Friedrich Gauss. They are used in the process of Gaussian

An orthogonal matrix "A" is necessarily invertible (with inverse ), unitary (), and normal (). The determinant of any orthogonal matrix is either +1 or −1. A "special orthogonal matrix" is an orthogonal matrix with determinant +1. As a linear transformation, every orthogonal matrix with determinant +1 is a pure rotation, while every orthogonal matrix with determinant −1 is either a pure reflection, or a composition of reflection and rotation. The complex analogue of an orthogonal matrix is a unitary matrix. The

Involutory matrices are all square roots of the identity matrix. This is simply a consequence of the fact that any nonsingular matrix multiplied by its inverse is the identity. The 2 × 2 real matrix formula_1 is involutory provided that formula_2 The Pauli matrices in M(2,C) are involutory: One of the three classes of elementary matrix is involutory, namely the "row-interchange elementary matrix".

Rotations are performed with a rotation matrix formula_49 such that the separation vector formula_50 is related to the separation vector before rotation formula_5 by the relation The inverse formula_53 of formula_54 is defined by which yields Here formula_57 is the Kronecker delta. A simple rotation matrix that rotates the coordinate axis through an angle formula_58 about the formula_17-axis is This is a rotation in the y-z plane.

Inverse transformation of Vaníček's LSSA is possible, as is most easily seen by writing the forward transform as a matrix; the matrix inverse (when the matrix is not singular) or pseudo-inverse will then be an inverse transformation; the inverse will exactly match the original data if the chosen sinusoids are mutually independent at the sample points and their number is equal to the number of data points. No such inverse procedure is known for the periodogram method. The LSSA

The -dimensional variant of Newton's method can be used to solve systems of greater than (nonlinear) equations as well if the algorithm uses the generalized inverse of the non-square Jacobian matrix instead of the inverse of . If the nonlinear system has no solution, the method attempts to find a solution in the non-linear least squares

This leads to the equivalent characterization: a matrix is orthogonal if its transpose is equal to its inverse: An orthogonal matrix is necessarily invertible (with inverse ), unitary () and therefore normal () in the reals. The determinant of any orthogonal matrix is either +1 or −1. As a linear transformation, an orthogonal matrix preserves the dot product of vectors, and therefore acts as an isometry of Euclidean space, such as a rotation,

Solutions exist if and only if formula_87 is a solution, that is, if and only if formula_88. If "A" has full column rank, the bracketed expression in this equation is the zero matrix and so the solution is unique. In practical applications it is necessary to identify the class of matrix transformations that must be preserved by a generalized inverse. For example, the Moore-Penrose inverse, formula_89, satisfies the following definition of consistency with respect to transformations involving unitary matrices "U"

neg: Multicollinearity In this case, the matrix XX has an inverse, but is ill-conditioned so that a given computer algorithm may or may not be able to compute an approximate inverse, and if it does so the resulting computed inverse may be highly sensitive to slight variations in the data (due to magnified effects of either rounding error or slight variations in the sampled data points) and so may be very inaccurate or very sample-dependent. Indicators that multicollinearity may be present in a model include the following: One consequence of a high degree of multicollinearity is that, even if the matrix formula_23

Involutory matrix In mathematics, an involutory matrix is a matrix that is its own inverse. That is, multiplication by matrix A is an involution if and only if A = I. Involutory matrices are all square roots of the identity matrix. This is simply a consequence of the fact that any nonsingular matrix multiplied by its inverse is the identity. The 2 × 2 real

Using the notation that is sometimes used to concisely describe diagonal matrices, we can write: It can also be written using the Kronecker delta notation: The identity matrix also has the property that, when it is the product of two square matrices, the matrices can be said to be the inverse of one another. The identity matrix of a given size is the only idempotent matrix of that size having full rank. That is, it is the only matrix such that (a) when multiplied by itself the result is itself,

They are sometimes called "orthonormal matrices", sometimes "orthogonal matrices", and sometimes simply "matrices with orthonormal rows/columns". Orthogonal matrix An orthogonal matrix is a square matrix whose columns and rows are orthogonal unit vectors (i.e., orthonormal vectors), i.e. where formula_2 is the identity matrix. This leads to the equivalent characterization: a matrix is orthogonal if its transpose is equal to its inverse: An orthogonal matrix is necessarily invertible (with inverse ), unitary () and therefore normal () in the reals. The determinant of any orthogonal matrix is either +1 or −1. As a

The computation is relatively cheap because the determinant of A + uv does not have to be computed from scratch (which in general is expensive). Using unit vectors for u and/or v, individual columns, rows or elements of A may be manipulated and a correspondingly updated determinant computed relatively cheaply in this way. When the matrix determinant lemma is used in conjunction with the Sherman-Morrison formula, both the inverse and determinant may be conveniently updated together. Suppose A is an invertible "n"-by-"n" matrix and U, V are "n"-by-"m" matrices. Then

The matrix formed by all of the cofactors of a square matrix A is called the cofactor matrix (also called the matrix of cofactors or comatrix): Then the inverse of A is the transpose of the cofactor matrix times the reciprocal of the determinant of "A": The transpose of the cofactor matrix is called the adjugate matrix (also called the classical adjoint) of A. The above formula can be generalized as follows: Let formula_26, formula_8 be ordered

If A, U, B, V are matrices of sizes "p"×"p", "p"×"q", "q"×"q", "q"×"p", respectively, then provided A and B + BVAUB are nonsingular. Nonsingularity of the latter requires that B exist since it equals and the rank of the latter cannot exceed the rank of B. Since B is invertible, the two B terms flanking the parenthetical quantity inverse in the right-hand side can be replaced with which results in This is the Woodbury matrix identity, which can also be derived using matrix blockwise inversion.

We note that an inverse system in a category "C" admits an alternative description in terms of functors. Any partially ordered set "I" can be considered as a small category where the morphisms consist of arrows "i" → "j" if and only if "i" ≤ "j". An inverse system is then just a contravariant functor "I" → "C", and the inverse limit

For example, for the set of 2×2 matrices over the field of real numbers, "M"(ℝ), one legitimate basis set of matrices is: because any 2×2 matrix can be expressed as: where "a", "b", "c","d" are all real numbers. This idea applies to other fields and matrices of higher dimensions. The determinant of a square matrix is an important property. The determinant indicates if a matrix is invertible (i.e. the inverse of a matrix exists when the determinant

Using the relations formula_204 and formula_205 it follows that the range of "P" equals the range of formula_206, which in turn implies that the range of formula_207 equals the kernel of formula_6. Similarly formula_183 implies that the range of formula_171 equals the range of formula_6. Therefore, we find, In the general case, it is shown here for any formula_213 matrix formula_1 that formula_215 where formula_216.

For very small energy width, the ensemble does not exist at all for most values of , since no states fall within the range. When the ensemble does exist, it typically only contains one (or two) states, since in a complex system the energy levels are only ever equal by accident (see random matrix theory for more discussion on this point). Moreover, the state-volume function also increases only in discrete increments,

The above procedure shows why taking the pseudoinverse is not a continuous operation: if the original matrix has a singular value 0 (a diagonal entry of the matrix formula_200 above), then modifying slightly may turn this zero into a tiny positive number, thereby affecting the pseudoinverse dramatically as we now have to take the reciprocal of a tiny number. Optimized approaches exist for calculating the

Inverse element In abstract algebra, the idea of an inverse element generalises concepts of a negation (sign reversal) in relation to addition, and a reciprocal in relation to multiplication. The intuition is of an element that can 'undo' the effect of combination with another given element. While the precise definition of an inverse element varies depending on the algebraic structure involved, these definitions coincide in a group. The word 'inverse' is derived from that means 'turned upside

A symmetric matrix is positive-definite if and only if all its eigenvalues are positive, that is, the matrix is positive-semidefinite and it is invertible.

Allowing as input two different vectors instead yields the bilinear form associated to A: An "orthogonal matrix" is a square matrix with real entries whose columns and rows are orthogonal unit vectors (that is, orthonormal vectors). Equivalently, a matrix A is orthogonal if its transpose is equal to its inverse: which entails where I is

The most widely known type of matrix pseudoinverse is the Moore–Penrose inverse, which was independently described by E. H. Moore in 1920, Arne Bjerhammar in 1951, and Roger Penrose in 1955. Earlier, Erik Ivar Fredholm had introduced the concept of a pseudoinverse of integral operators in 1903. When referring to a matrix, the term pseudoinverse, without further specification, is often used to indicate the Moore–Penrose inverse. The term generalized inverse is sometimes used as a synonym for pseudoinverse. A

Minors obtained by removing just one row and one column from square matrices (first minors) are required for calculating matrix cofactors, which in turn are useful for computing both the determinant and inverse of square matrices. If A is a square matrix, then the minor of the entry in the "i"-th row and "j"-th column (also called the ("i","j") minor, or a first minor) is the

It has to be admitted that not all the curves conform to the usual definition of a spiral. For example, when the inverse cube force is centrifugal (directed outwards), so that "μ" < 0, the curve does not even rotate once about the centre. This is represented by Case

In particular, when formula_14 has linearly independent columns (and thus matrix formula_32 is invertible), formula_28 can be computed as: This particular pseudoinverse constitutes a "left inverse", since, in this case, formula_35. When formula_14 has linearly independent rows (matrix formula_37 is invertible), formula_28 can be computed as: This is a "right inverse", as formula_40. Proofs for some of these facts

The sound intensity is the product of the RMS sound pressure and the "in-phase" component of the RMS particle velocity, both of which are inverse-proportional. Accordingly, the intensity follows an inverse-square behaviour: For an irrotational vector field in three-dimensional space, the inverse-square law corresponds to the property that the divergence is zero outside the source. This can be generalized to higher dimensions.
