西尔维斯特及其矩阵理论

J.J.Sylvester and His Matrix Theory

矩阵是伴随着其他理论的研究而产生的,众多数学家为其早期发展做了大量的工作。在此基础上,西尔维斯特创用了矩阵一词,引进了与矩阵有关的一些基本概念,给出了矩阵的一些重要结论与著名定理,为矩阵理论的发展做出了重要贡献。

The emergence of the matrix theory was accompanied by the study of other theories, and many mathematicians had done a large amount of work during the earlier period of its development. On this basis, J. J. Sylvester was the first to use the word ＂matrix＂, introduced some fundamental concepts related to Matrix, obtained some principal results and famous theorems, and made important contribution for the matrix theory.
