When , the positive equilibrium isOn the invariant plane , the Jacobian at this equilibrium has negative trace and positive determinant , so both eigenvalues have negative real part and the equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable.
The singular values of a matrix measure stretching of Euclidean norm. They are the nonnegative square roots of the eigenvalues of , counting the diagonal slots of the singular value decomposition; when , has additional zero eigenvalues. Nonnegativity follows from , so is a positive semidefinite matrix. For the preceding matrix,Both have eigenvalues , giving singular values . In particular,Here the operator norm uses Euclidean norm: no unit vector stretches more than fivefold. Zero singular values identify lost directions; the number of positive singular values equals the matrix rank. This summarizes both amplification and information loss with nonnegative numbers.[ref]

Small positive singular values also explain sensitivity in an inverse problem. For a square invertible matrix, the matrix inverse sends to : a weak forward response becomes strong inverse amplification. The condition number for Euclidean norm is , equal to in our example. To see a larger effect, keep the same right singular vectors but change the second singular value to :The output perturbation has Euclidean norm , but the recovered input changes by . Its hundredfold amplification follows from the direction of the perturbation, not just its size. The condition number is now ; it measures the disparity between the strongest and weakest responses.[ref]

A partial function is lambda-definable when one lambda term maps Church numerals in its domain to the numeral of the output and produces no numeral on inputs outside its domain.

This theorem establishes strong normalization in the normal form sense. Every well-typed simply typed lambda term admits no infinite beta-reduction sequence.
If a lambda term beta-reduces to both and , then and beta-reduce to a common term. Consequently two beta-equivalent beta-normal forms are alpha-equivalent.

Every holomorphic function on a simply connected domain has a single-valued antiderivative. Fixing and settinggives a path-independent function with , because the Cauchy integral theorem makes the integral around every closed path zero.
The geometric realization is a pseudomanifold without boundary in the convention used here.
A pure -dimensional simplicial complex is a pseudomanifold when every codimension-one simplex belongs to exactly two top-dimensional simplices and the top simplices are connected through shared codimension-one faces.
An -simplex is the convex hull of affinely independent points. Every point has a unique expression with and , its barycentric coordinates. A zero-simplex is a point, a one-simplex a line segment, a two-simplex a filled triangle, and a three-simplex a tetrahedron. Its faces are obtained by taking subsets of the vertices. This uniform description allows simplicial complexes to build spaces from elementary pieces in every dimension.

If real matrices satisfy for an invertible complex , then , so both real matrices intertwine and . Since is a nonzero real polynomial, some real makes invertible and supplies a real similarity.
A similarity transformation replaces a square matrix by a similar matrix. With the change-of-basis matrix convention , it sends to : reconstruct the input in old coordinates, apply , then extract the output's new coordinates. These three operations explain the order of the factors.
The equivalent formula uses as the conversion from old to new coordinates, reversing the role assigned to above. For the opening example's numerical , this opposite conversion gives . If the old basis is , the new basis vectors in that convention are the columns of , namely and . Both formulas are similarity transformations; the direction of the coordinate conversion decides which one describes a specified basis.
An especially useful form is the intertwining operator equationIt says that applying before reconstruction by gives the same physical output as reconstructing first and applying . Given an invertible matrix , multiplying this equation by proves matrix similarity. Without invertibility, the equation alone does not prove matrix similarity.
For a finite set of positive integers and a set of prime numbers , the sifting function counts elements divisible by no prime number in strictly below :The strict inequality is the endpoint convention used in the Buchstab identity here. With an empty product, and every element survives.
