  1. diagonalisation

    Diagonalisation in linear algebra is the process of finding a corresponding diagonal matrix for a given square matrix. It involves re-expressing the square matrix as the product of three matrices: an invertible matrix, a diagonal matrix, and the inverse of the invertible matrix. The elements of the diagonal matrix are the eigenvalues of the original matrix, and the columns of the invertible matrix are the corresponding eigenvectors. This process allows the simplification of many calculations and is extensively used in several areas of mathematics and engineering.
