Singular Value Decomposition

1 min read Updated Wed May 06 2026 19:36:36 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)

Factorization that works for all matrices.

A=VΣUHA = V \Sigma U^H

Here:

  • UU, VV are unitary
  • Σ\Sigma has singular values on diagonal.

Singular values are square roots of eigenvalues of AHAA^HA (or AAHAA^H).
