Advanced Form
For a vector space V and subspace W, a shear fixing W translates all vectors parallel to W.
To be more precise, if V is the direct sum of W and W′, and we write vectors as
- v = w + w′
correspondingly, the typical shear fixing W is L where
- L(v) = (w + Mw′) + w ′
where M is a linear mapping from W′ into W. Therefore in block matrix terms L can be represented as
with blocks on the diagonal I (identity matrix), with M above the diagonal, and 0 below.

Famous quotes containing the words advanced and/or form:
“I saw my lady weep,
And Sorrow proud to be advanced so
In those fair eyes where all perfections keep.
Her face was full of woe;
But such a woe, believe me, as wins more hearts
Than Mirth can do with her enticing parts.”
—Unknown. I Saw My Lady Weep (l. 1–6)
“That is what the highest criticism really is, the record of one’s own soul. It is more fascinating than history, as it is concerned simply with oneself. It is more delightful than philosophy, as its subject is concrete and not abstract, real and not vague. It is the only civilised form of autobiography.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
