Matrix Calculus Fundamentals

Matrix calculus extends single-variable derivatives to matrices so we can differentiate functions built from matrix multiplications, traces, and norms.

Low-Rank Approximation

Low-rank approximation replaces a big matrix with one that has far fewer degrees of freedom while preserving most of its action.

Tensor Operations

A tensor is a multi-dimensional array that generalizes scalars (0-D), vectors (1-D), and matrices (2-D) to higher dimensions.

Matrix Norms & Condition Numbers

Matrix norms measure the size of a matrix in different but related ways, with Frobenius treating entries like a big vector, spectral measuring the strongest stretch, and nuclear summing all singular values.

Positive Definite Matrices

A real symmetric matrix A is positive definite if and only if x^T A x > 0 for every nonzero vector x, and positive semidefinite if x^T A x ≥ 0.

Eigendecomposition

Eigendecomposition expresses a matrix as a change of basis times a diagonal scaling, revealing its natural stretching directions.

Inner Products & Norms

An inner product measures how much two vectors point in the same direction; in R^n it is the dot product.

Systems of Linear Equations

A system of linear equations asks for numbers that make several linear relationships true at the same time, which we compactly write as Ax = b.

Matrix Operations & Properties

Matrix operations like multiplication and transpose combine or reorient data tables and linear transformations in predictable ways.

Vectors & Vector Spaces

A vector is an element you can add and scale, and a vector space is any collection of such elements closed under these operations.

Constructive Algorithm Techniques

Constructive algorithms build a valid answer directly by following a recipe, rather than searching exhaustively.

When to Use Binary Search on Answer

Binary search on answer applies when the feasibility of a candidate value is monotonic: if a value works, then all larger (or smaller) values also work.
