Band Matrix - Examples and Special Cases

Examples and Special Cases

The following are special cases of band matrices:

  • Diagonal matrices.
  • Tridiagonal matrices.
  • Pentadiagonal matrices.
  • Upper and lower triangular matrices.
  • Upper and lower Hessenberg matrices.
  • Block-diagonal matrices.
  • Shift matrices and shear matrices.
  • Matrices in Jordan normal form.
  • A skyline matrix, also called "variable band matrix" is a generalization of band matrix

The inverses of Lehmer matrices are constant tridiagonal matrices, and are thus band matrices.

Famous quotes containing the words examples, special and/or cases:

    In the examples that I here bring in of what I have [read], heard, done or said, I have refrained from daring to alter even the smallest and most indifferent circumstances. My conscience falsifies not an iota; for my knowledge I cannot answer.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Jack: A politician, huh?
    Editor: Oh, county treasurer or something like that.
    Jack: What’s so special about him?
    Editor: They say he’s an honest man.
    Robert Rossen (1908–1966)

    Medication alone is not to be relied on. In one half the cases medicine is not needed, or is worse than useless. Obedience to spiritual and physical laws—hygeine [sic] of the body, and hygeine of the spirit—is the surest warrant for health and happiness.
    Harriot K. Hunt (1805–1875)
