Shear matrix — In mathematics, a shear matrix is an elementary matrix that represents the addition of a multiple of one row or column to another. Such a matrix may be derived by taking the identity matrix and replacing one of the zero elements with a non zero… … Wikipedia
Transformation matrix — In linear algebra, linear transformations can be represented by matrices. If T is a linear transformation mapping Rn to Rm and x is a column vector with n entries, then for some m×n matrix A, called the transformation matrix of T. There is an… … Wikipedia
Transformation (function) — In mathematics, a transformation could be any function mapping a set X on to another set or on to itself. However, often the set X has some additional algebraic or geometric structure and the term transformation refers to a function from X to… … Wikipedia
Transformation (geometry) — In mathematics, a transformation could be any function from a set X to itself. However, often the set X has some additional algebraic or geometric structure and the term transformation refers to a function from X to itself which preserves this… … Wikipedia
