A positive definite function f on a group G is a function for which the matrix {f(x_ix_j^(-1))} is always positive semidefinite Hermitian.

A fixed point for which the stability matrix has eigenvalues of the form lambda_+/-=-alpha+/-ibeta (with alpha,beta>0).

A fixed point for which the stability matrix has one zero eigenvector with negative eigenvalue lambda<0.

A fixed point for which the stability matrix has one zero eigenvector with positive eigenvalue lambda>0.

The complex conjugate of a complex number z=a+bi is defined to be z^_=a-bi. (1) The conjugate matrix of a matrix A=(a_(ij)) is the matrix obtained by replacing each element ...

Given a square n×n nonsingular integer matrix A, there exists an n×n unimodular matrix U and an n×n matrix H (known as the Hermite normal form of A) such that AU=H. ...
