Special Matrices Of Mathematical Physics: Stochastic, Circulant And Bell MatricesThis book expounds three special kinds of matrices that are of physical interest, centering on physical examples. Stochastic matrices describe dynamical systems of many different types, involving (or not) phenomena like transience, dissipation, ergodicity, nonequilibrium, and hypersensitivity to initial conditions. The main characteristic is growth by agglomeration, as in glass formation. Circulants are the building blocks of elementary Fourier analysis and provide a natural gateway to quantum mechanics and noncommutative geometry. Bell polynomials offer closed expressions for many formulas concerning Lie algebra invariants, differential geometry and real gases, and their matrices are instrumental in the study of chaotic mappings. |

Degenerate matrices As a rule, physicists dislike degenerate matrices and/or operators. In Quantum Mechanics, for example, they proceed to increase the number of operators up to the point at which all degeneracy is removed.

The importance of normal operators in quantum physics is not strange to this fact. The decomposition into components, however, holds also when M is not normal (as a Bell matrix), though in that case, as said, the components may lose ...
