 Shift matrix

A shift matrix, often used in linear algebra and related fields, is a specific type of matrix that represents a shift operation on a vector space. There are typically two types of shift matrices: the left shift matrix and the right shift matrix. 1. **Left Shift Matrix**: This matrix shifts the elements of a vector to the left. For example, if you have a vector \( \mathbf{x} = [x_1, x_2, x_3, ...
