The general linear group

LieGroups.GeneralLinearGroup โ€” Type
GeneralLinearGroup{๐”ฝ,T}

The general linear group $\mathrm{GL}(n)$ is the set of all invertible matrices

\[\mathrm{GL}(n) = \bigl\{ M โˆˆ ๐”ฝ^{nร—n}\ \big|\ \mathrm{det}(M) โ‰  0\bigr \}, \qquad ๐”ฝ โˆˆ \{ โ„, โ„‚ \},\]

equipped with the MatrixMultiplicationGroupOperation as the group operation.

The set of invertible matrices is a Riemannian manifold, since it inherits its structure from the embedding as an open subset of the space of matrices $โ„^{nร—n}$.

Constructor

GeneralLinearGroup(n::Int; field=โ„, kwargs...)

Generate the general linear group on $๐”ฝ^{nร—n}$. All keyword arguments in kwargs... are passed on to InvertibleMatrices.
