Scalar resolute — The scalar resolute, also known as the scalar projection or scalar component, of a vector mathbf{b} in the direction of a vector mathbf{a} is given by::mathbf{b}cdotmathbf{hat a} = |mathbf{b}|cos heta where heta is the angle between the vectors… … Wikipedia
Projection (mathematics) — Commutativity of this diagram is the universality of projection π, for any map f and set X. Generally speaking, in mathematics, a projection is a mapping of a set (or of a mathematical structure) which is idempotent, which means that a projection … Wikipedia
Projection (linear algebra) — Orthogonal projection redirects here. For the technical drawing concept, see orthographic projection. For a concrete discussion of orthogonal projections in finite dimensional linear spaces, see vector projection. The transformation P is the… … Wikipedia
Scalar field — In mathematics and physics, a scalar field associates a scalar value, which can be either mathematical in definition, or physical, to every point in space. Scalar fields are often used in physics, for instance to indicate the temperature… … Wikipedia
Dot product — Scalar product redirects here. For the abstract scalar product, see Inner product space. For the operation on complex vector spaces, see Hermitian form. For the product of a vector and a scalar, see scalar multiplication. In mathematics, the dot… … Wikipedia
n-vector — is a three parameter non singular horizontal position representation well suited for replacing latitude and longitude in mathematical calculations and computer algorithms. Geometrically, it is a unit vector that is normal to the reference… … Wikipedia
Geometric algebra — In mathematical physics, a geometric algebra is a multilinear algebra described technically as a Clifford algebra over a real vector space equipped with a non degenerate quadratic form. Informally, a geometric algebra is a Clifford algebra that… … Wikipedia
Least-squares estimation of linear regression coefficients — In parametric statistics, the least squares estimator is often used to estimate the coefficients of a linear regression. The least squares estimator optimizes a certain criterion (namely it minimizes the sum of the square of the residuals). In… … Wikipedia
Vector space — This article is about linear (vector) spaces. For the structure in incidence geometry, see Linear space (geometry). Vector addition and scalar multiplication: a vector v (blue) is added to another vector w (red, upper illustration). Below, w is… … Wikipedia
