The operator . represents noncommutative multiplication and scalar
product. When the operands are 1-column or 1-row matrices a and
b, the expression a.b is equivalent to
sum (a[i]*b[i], i, 1, length(a)). If a and b are not
complex, this is the scalar product, also called the inner product or dot
product, of a and b. The scalar product is defined as
conjugate(a).b when a and b are complex;
innerproduct in the eigen package provides the complex scalar
product.
When the operands are more general matrices,
the product is the matrix product a and b.
The number of rows of b must equal the number of columns of a,
and the result has number of rows equal to the number of rows of a
and number of columns equal to the number of columns of b.
To distinguish . as an arithmetic operator from the decimal point in a
floating point number, it may be necessary to leave spaces on either side.
For example, 5.e3 is 5000.0 but 5 . e3 is 5
times e3.
There are several flags which govern the simplification of expressions
involving ., namely dot0nscsimp, dot0simp,
dot1simp, dotassoc, dotconstrules,
dotdistrib, dotexptsimp, dotident, and
dotscrules.

vect is a package of functions for vector analysis. load ("vect")
loads this package, and demo ("vect") displays a demonstration.
The vector analysis package can combine and simplify symbolic expressions including dot products and cross products, together with the gradient, divergence, curl, and Laplacian operators. The distribution of these operators over sums or products is governed by several flags, as are various other expansions, including expansion into components in any specific orthogonal coordinate systems. There are also functions for deriving the scalar or vector potential of a field.
The vect package contains these functions:
vectorsimp, scalefactors, express,
potential, and vectorpotential.
By default the vect package does not declare the dot operator to be a
commutative operator. To get a commutative dot operator ., the command
declare(".", commutative) must be executed.

The package eigen contains several functions devoted to the
symbolic computation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
Maxima loads the package automatically if one of the functions
eigenvalues or eigenvectors is invoked.
The package may be loaded explicitly as load ("eigen").
demo ("eigen") displays a demonstration of the capabilities
of this package.
batch ("eigen") executes the same demonstration,
but without the user prompt between successive computations.
The functions in the eigen package are:
innerproduct, unitvector, columnvector,
gramschmidt, eigenvalues,
eigenvectors, uniteigenvectors, and
similaritytransform.

Returns a copy of the matrix M. This is the only way to make a copy aside from copying M element by element.
Note that an assignment of one matrix to another, as in m2: m1, does not
copy m1. An assignment m2 [i,j]: x or setelmx(x, i, j, m2)
also modifies m1 [i,j]. Creating a copy with copymatrix and then
using assignment creates a separate, modified copy.

Returns the echelon form of the matrix M, as produced by Gaussian elimination. The echelon form is computed from M by elementary row operations such that the first non-zero element in each row in the resulting matrix is one and the column elements under the first one in each row are all zero.
triangularize also carries out Gaussian elimination, but it does not
normalize the leading non-zero element in each row.
lu_factor and cholesky are other functions which yield
triangularized matrices.

Returns a list of two lists containing the eigenvalues of the matrix M. The first sublist of the return value is the list of eigenvalues of the matrix, and the second sublist is the list of the multiplicities of the eigenvalues in the corresponding order.
eivals is a synonym for eigenvalues.
eigenvalues calls the function solve to find the roots of the
characteristic polynomial of the matrix. Sometimes solve may not be able
to find the roots of the polynomial; in that case some other functions in this
package (except innerproduct, unitvector,
columnvector and gramschmidt) will not work.
In some cases the eigenvalues found by solve may be complicated
expressions. (This may happen when solve returns a not-so-obviously real
expression for an eigenvalue which is known to be real.) It may be possible to
simplify the eigenvalues using some other functions.

The flags that affect this function are:
nondiagonalizable is set to true or false depending on
whether the matrix is nondiagonalizable or diagonalizable after
eigenvectors returns.
hermitianmatrix when true, causes the degenerate
eigenvectors of the Hermitian matrix to be orthogonalized using the
Gram-Schmidt algorithm.
knowneigvals when true causes the eigen package to assume
the eigenvalues of the matrix are known to the user and stored under the global
name listeigvals. listeigvals should be set to a list similar
to the output eigenvalues.
The function algsys is used here to solve for the eigenvectors.
Sometimes if the eigenvalues are messy, algsys may not be able to find a
solution. In some cases, it may be possible to simplify the eigenvalues by
first finding them using eigenvalues command and then using other
functions to reduce them to something simpler. Following simplification,
eigenvectors can be called again with the knowneigvals flag set
to true.

a[i_2, j_2] as the lower-right element of the matrix.
Here a is a declared array (created by array but not by

expression of two arguments. (An array function is created like other functions
with := or define, but arguments are enclosed in square
brackets instead of parentheses.)

Carries out the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization algorithm on x, which is
either a matrix or a list of lists. x is not modified by
gramschmidt. The inner product employed by gramschmidt is
F, if present, otherwise the inner product is the function
innerproduct.
If x is a matrix, the algorithm is applied to the rows of x. If x is a list of lists, the algorithm is applied to the sublists, which must have equal numbers of elements. In either case, the return value is a list of lists, the sublists of which are orthogonal and span the same space as x. If the dimension of the span of x is less than the number of rows or sublists, some sublists of the return value are zero.
factor is called at each stage of the algorithm to simplify intermediate
results. As a consequence, the return value may contain factored integers.

Returns the inverse of the matrix M. The inverse is computed via the LU decomposition.
When ratmx is true,
elements of M are converted to canonical rational expressions (CRE),
and the elements of the return value are also CRE.
When ratmx is false,
elements of M are not converted to a common representation.
In particular, float and bigfloat elements are not converted to rationals.
When detout is true, the determinant is factored out of the inverse.
The global flags doallmxops and doscmxops must be false
to prevent the determinant from being absorbed into the inverse.
xthru can multiply the determinant into the inverse.
invert does not apply any simplifications to the elements of the inverse
apart from the default arithmetic simplifications.
ratsimp and expand can apply additional simplifications.
In particular, when M has polynomial elements,
expand(invert(M)) might be preferable.
invert(M) is equivalent to M^^-1.

Returns a rectangular matrix which has the rows row_1, …, row_n. Each row is a list of expressions. All rows must be the same length.
The operations + (addition), - (subtraction), *
(multiplication), and / (division), are carried out element by element
when the operands are two matrices, a scalar and a matrix, or a matrix and a
scalar. The operation ^ (exponentiation, equivalently **)
is carried out element by element if the operands are a scalar and a matrix or
a matrix and a scalar, but not if the operands are two matrices.
All operations are normally carried out in full,
including . (noncommutative multiplication).
Matrix multiplication is represented by the noncommutative multiplication
operator .. The corresponding noncommutative exponentiation operator
is ^^. For a matrix A, A.A = A^^2
and A^^-1 is the inverse of A, if it exists.
A^^-1 is equivalent to invert(A).
There are switches for controlling simplification of expressions involving dot
and matrix-list operations. These are
doallmxops, domxexpt, domxmxops,
doscmxops, and doscmxplus.
There are additional options which are related to matrices. These are:
lmxchar, rmxchar, ratmx,
listarith, detout, scalarmatrix and
sparse.
There are a number of functions which take matrices as arguments or yield
matrices as return values.

Default value: false
matrix_element_transpose is the operation
applied to each element of a matrix when it is transposed.
matrix_element_mult can be assigned any unary operator.
The assigned value may be the name of an operator enclosed in quote marks,
the name of a function, or a lambda expression.
When matrix_element_transpose equals transpose,
the transpose function is applied to every element.
When matrix_element_transpose equals nonscalars,
the transpose function is applied to every nonscalar element.
If some element is an atom, the nonscalars option applies
transpose only if the atom is declared nonscalar,
while the transpose option always applies transpose.
The default value, false, means no operation is applied.
See also matrix_element_add and matrix_element_mult.

(%i1) declare (a, nonscalar)$
(%i2) transpose ([a, b]);

Returns the trace (that is, the sum of the elements on the main diagonal) of the square matrix M.
mattrace is called by ncharpoly, an alternative to Maxima's
charpoly.
load ("nchrpl") loads this function.
Categories: Matrices · Package nchrpl
Returns the i, j minor of the matrix M. That is, M with row i and column j removed.
Categories: Matrices
Returns the characteristic polynomial of the matrix M
with respect to x. This is an alternative to Maxima's charpoly.
ncharpoly works by computing traces of powers of the given matrix,
which are known to be equal to sums of powers of the roots of the
characteristic polynomial. From these quantities the symmetric
functions of the roots can be calculated, which are nothing more than
the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial. charpoly works by
forming the determinant of x * ident [n] - a. Thus
ncharpoly wins, for example, in the case of large dense matrices filled
with integers, since it avoids polynomial arithmetic altogether.

Default value: false
When ratmx is false, determinant and matrix
addition, subtraction, and multiplication are performed in the
representation of the matrix elements and cause the result of
matrix inversion to be left in general representation.
When ratmx is true,
the 4 operations mentioned above are performed in CRE form and the
result of matrix inverse is in CRE form. Note that this may
cause the elements to be expanded (depending on the setting of ratfac)
which might not always be desired.

Default value: true
When scalarmatrixp is true, then whenever a 1 x 1 matrix
is produced as a result of computing the dot product of matrices it
is simplified to a scalar, namely the sole element of the matrix.
When scalarmatrixp is all,
then all 1 x 1 matrices are simplified to scalars.
When scalarmatrixp is false, 1 x 1 matrices are not simplified
to scalars.

Here the argument coordinatetransform evaluates to the form
[[expression1, expression2, ...], indeterminate1, indeterminat2, ...],
where the variables indeterminate1, indeterminate2, etc. are the
curvilinear coordinate variables and where a set of rectangular Cartesian
components is given in terms of the curvilinear coordinates by
[expression1, expression2, ...]. coordinates is set to the vector
[indeterminate1, indeterminate2,...], and dimension is set to the
length of this vector. SF[1], SF[2], …, SF[DIMENSION] are set to the
coordinate scale factors, and sfprod is set to the product of these scale
factors. Initially, coordinates is [X, Y, Z], dimension
is 3, and SF[1]=SF[2]=SF[3]=SFPROD=1, corresponding to 3-dimensional rectangular
Cartesian coordinates. To expand an expression into physical components in the
current coordinate system, there is a function with usage of the form

Assigns x to the (i, j)'th element of the matrix M, and returns the altered matrix.
M [i, j]: x has the same effect,
but returns x instead of M.
Categories: Matrices
similaritytransform computes a similarity transform of the matrix
M. It returns a list which is the output of the uniteigenvectors
command. In addition if the flag nondiagonalizable is false two
global matrices leftmatrix and rightmatrix are computed. These
matrices have the property that leftmatrix . M . rightmatrix is a
diagonal matrix with the eigenvalues of M on the diagonal. If
nondiagonalizable is true the left and right matrices are not
computed.
If the flag hermitianmatrix is true then leftmatrix is the
complex conjugate of the transpose of rightmatrix. Otherwise
leftmatrix is the inverse of rightmatrix.
rightmatrix is the matrix the columns of which are the unit
eigenvectors of M. The other flags (see eigenvalues and
eigenvectors) have the same effects since
similaritytransform calls the other functions in the package in order
to be able to form rightmatrix.
load ("eigen") loads this function.
simtran is a synonym for similaritytransform.

When sparse is true, and if ratmx is true, then
determinant will use special routines for computing sparse determinants.

Categories: Matrices
Returns the transpose of M.
If M is a matrix, the return value is another matrix N
such that N[i,j] = M[j,i].
If M is a list, the return value is a matrix N
of length (m) rows and 1 column, such that N[i,1] = M[i].
Otherwise M is a symbol,
and the return value is a noun expression 'transpose (M).

Returns the upper triangular form of the matrix M,
as produced by Gaussian elimination.
The return value is the same as echelon,
except that the leading nonzero coefficient in each row is not normalized to 1.

Computes unit eigenvectors of the matrix M.
The return value is a list of lists, the first sublist of which is the
output of the eigenvalues command, and the other sublists of which are
the unit eigenvectors of the matrix corresponding to those eigenvalues
respectively.
The flags mentioned in the description of the
eigenvectors command have the same effects in this one as well.
When knowneigvects is true, the eigen package assumes
that the eigenvectors of the matrix are known to the user and are
stored under the global name listeigvects. listeigvects should
be set to a list similar to the output of the eigenvectors command.
If knowneigvects is set to true and the list of eigenvectors is
given the setting of the flag nondiagonalizable may not be correct. If
that is the case please set it to the correct value. The author assumes that
the user knows what he is doing and will not try to diagonalize a matrix the
eigenvectors of which do not span the vector space of the appropriate dimension.
