Outer product: Applications & Products

In linear algebra, the outer product of two coordinate vectors is the matrix whose entries are all products of an element in the first vector with an element in the second vector. If the two coordinate vectors have dimensions m and n, then their outer product is an m × n matrix. More generally, given two tensors (multidimensional arrays of numbers)…
