Definite matrix: Characters, Applications & Products

In mathematics, a symmetric matrix M {\displaystyle M} with real entries is positive-definite if the real number x T M x {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} ^{\mathsf {T}}M\mathbf {x} } is positive for every nonzero real column vector x , {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} ,} where x T {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} ^{\mathsf {T}}} is the row vector transpose of x .…
