Totally positive matrix

In mathematics, a totally positive matrix is a square matrix in which all the minors are positive: that is, the determinant of every square submatrix is a positive number. A totally positive matrix has all entries positive, so it is also a positive matrix; and it has all principal minors positive (and positive eigenvalues). A symmetric totally positive matrix is therefore also positive-definite. A totally non-negative matrix is defined similarly, except that all the minors must be non-negative (positive or zero). Some authors use "totally positive" to include all totally non-negative matrices. (Wikipedia).

Positive Semi-Definite Matrix 3: Factorization of Invertible Matrices

Matrix Theory: Let A be an invertible nxn matrix with complex entries. Using the square root result from Part 1, we show that A factors uniquely as PX, where P is unitary and X is (Hermitian) positive definite.

Positive Semi-Definite Matrix 1: Square Root

Matrix Theory: Let A be an nxn matrix with complex entries. Assume that A is (Hermitian) positive semi-definite. We show that A has a unique (Hermitian) positive definite square root; that is, a PSD matrix S such that S^2 = A. The key ingredient is the Spectral Theorem for C^n. Example

Proving a Negative Times a Negative Is a Positive with the Distributive Property

When you're multiplying integers and especially when you begin multiplying negative numbers, one of the first questions that comes up for students is why does a negative times a negative equal a positive? There are lots of ways to show it, and a couple of my favorites are: + Multiplicatio

Making sense of the confusion matrix

How do you interpret a confusion matrix? How can it help you to evaluate your machine learning model? What rates can you calculate from a confusion matrix, and what do they actually mean? In this video, I'll start by explaining how to interpret a confusion matrix for a binary classifier:

Bernhard Hanke - Surgery, bordism and scalar curvature

One of the most influential results in scalar curvature geometry, due to Gromov-Lawson and Schoen-Yau, is the construction of metrics with positive scalar curvature by surgery. Combined with powerful tools from geometric topology, this has strong implications for the classification of suc
