# Matrix condition number mathematical notation

Matrix condition number is a recurring research-paper notation family. Quantifies sensitivity of a linear solve to perturbations by comparing the largest…

## Public overview

Matrix condition number is a recurring research-paper notation family. Quantifies sensitivity of a linear solve to perturbations by comparing the largest and smallest singular scales.

Matrix condition number: Quantifies sensitivity of a linear solve to perturbations by comparing the largest and smallest singular scales. Example: Large kappa warns that small input errors can strongly change the solution.
