Mathematical terminology

Adjoint

In mathematics, the term adjoint applies in several situations. Several of these share a similar formalism: if A is adjoint to B, then there is typically some formula of the type (Ax, y) = (x, By). Specifically, adjoint or adjunction may mean: * Adjoint of a linear map, also called its transpose * Hermitian adjoint (adjoint of a linear operator) in functional analysis * Adjoint endomorphism of a Lie algebra * Adjoint representation of a Lie group * Adjoint functors in category theory * Adjunction (field theory) * Adjunction formula (algebraic geometry) * Adjunction space in topology * Conjugate transpose of a matrix in linear algebra * Adjugate matrix, related to its inverse * Adjoint equation * The upper and lower adjoints of a Galois connection in order theory * The adjoint of a differential operator with general polynomial coefficients * Kleisli adjunction * Monoidal adjunction * Quillen adjunction * Axiom of adjunction in set theory * Adjunction (rule of inference)This article includes a list of related items that share the same name (or similar names).

10 Adjoint state method

We show the connection between the method of adjoints in optimal control to the implicit function theorem ansatz. We relate the costate or adjoint state variable to Lagrange multipliers.

Adjoint / Daggered Operators in Quantum Mechanics

In this video, we will explain adjoint operators in quantum mechanics. First of all, for any operator A, we can define its adjoint, A-dagger, via this equation. The idea behind this is, that while operators in quantum mechanics usually act towards the right, adjoint operators act to the le

ADVERBS OF DEGREE - ENGLISH GRAMMAR

Adverbs of degree are words that describe or modify adjectives or adverbs. They are a special type of adverb, so I don't really like to think of them as adverbs. They are best on their own category. These are also called intensifiers or qualifiers. If you want to support the channel, hit

Self-Adjoint Operators

Self-adjoint operators. All eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator are real. On a complex vector space, if the inner product of Tv and v is real for every vector v, then T is self-adjoint.

Adjugate Matrix

In this video, I define the notion of adjugate matrix and use it to calculate A-1 using determinants. This is again beautiful in theory, but inefficient in examples. Adjugate matrix example: https://youtu.be/OFykHi0idnQ Check out my Determinants Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist
