A linear mapping from a vector space to a field of scalars. In other words, a linear function which acts upon a vector resulting in a real number (scalar) \begin{equation} \alpha\,:\,\mathbf{V} \longrightarrow \mathbb{R} \end{equation} Simplistically, covectors can be thought of as "row vectors", or: \begin{equation} \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 \end{bmatrix} \end{equation} This might look like a standard vector, which would be true in an orthonormal basis, but it is not true generally. |

The trace of an $latex n\times n$ matrix is the sum of its diagonal elements: $latex \mathrm{trace}(A) = \sum_{i=1}^n a_{ii}$. The trace is linear, that is, $latex \mathrm{trace}(A+B) = \mathrm{trace}(A) + \mathrm{trace}(B)$, and $latex \mathrm{trace}(A) = \mathrm{trace}(A^T)$. A key fact is that the trace is also the sum of the eigenvalues. The proof is by... |
