Jordan normal formIn linear algebra, a Jordan normal form, also known as a Jordan canonical form (JCF), is an upper triangular matrix of a particular form called a Jordan matrix representing a linear operator on a finite-dimensional vector space with respect to some basis. Such a matrix has each non-zero off-diagonal entry equal to 1, immediately above the main diagonal (on the superdiagonal), and with identical diagonal entries to the left and below them. Let V be a vector space over a field K.
Integer programmingAn integer programming problem is a mathematical optimization or feasibility program in which some or all of the variables are restricted to be integers. In many settings the term refers to integer linear programming (ILP), in which the objective function and the constraints (other than the integer constraints) are linear. Integer programming is NP-complete. In particular, the special case of 0-1 integer linear programming, in which unknowns are binary, and only the restrictions must be satisfied, is one of Karp's 21 NP-complete problems.
Strongly chordal graphIn the mathematical area of graph theory, an undirected graph G is strongly chordal if it is a chordal graph and every cycle of even length (≥ 6) in G has an odd chord, i.e., an edge that connects two vertices that are an odd distance (>1) apart from each other in the cycle. Strongly chordal graphs have a forbidden subgraph characterization as the graphs that do not contain an induced cycle of length greater than three or an n-sun (n ≥ 3) as an induced subgraph. An n-sun is a chordal graph with 2n vertices, partitioned into two subsets U = {u1, u2,.
Tutte embeddingIn graph drawing and geometric graph theory, a Tutte embedding or barycentric embedding of a simple, 3-vertex-connected, planar graph is a crossing-free straight-line embedding with the properties that the outer face is a convex polygon and that each interior vertex is at the average (or barycenter) of its neighbors' positions. If the outer polygon is fixed, this condition on the interior vertices determines their position uniquely as the solution to a system of linear equations.
