Aerospace | The line appearing on the face of a cathode-ray tube when the visible dot repeatedly sweeps across the face of the tube as a result of deflections of the electron beam. See sweep. The path of the dot from the end of one sweep to the start of the next sweep is called a retrace. If more than one trace is shown on the same scope, the traces may be called A-trace, B-trace , etc. (references) |

In linear algebra, the trace of an n-by-n square matrix A is defined to be the sum of the elements on the main diagonal (the diagonal from the upper left to the lower right) of A, i.e.
If one imagines that the matrix A describes a water flow, in the sense that for every x in Rn, the vector Ax represents the velocity of the water at the location x, then the trace of A can be interpreted as follows: given any region U in Rn, the net flow of water out of U is given by tr(A)· vol(U), where vol(U) is the volume of U. See divergence.
The trace is used to define characters of group representations.
The trace is a linear map in the sense that
If A and B are similar, i.e. if there exists an invertible matrix X such that A = X-1BX, then by the cyclic property,
There exist matrices which have the same trace but are not similar.
If A is a square n-by-n matrix with real or complex entries and if λ1,...,λn are the (complex) eigenvalues of A (listed according to their algebraic multiplicities), then
From the connection between the trace and the eigenvalues, one can derive a connection between the trace function, the exponential function, and the determinant:
Properties
A matrix and its transpose have the same trace:
If A is an n×m matrix
and B is an m×n matrix, then
Using this fact, we can deduce that the trace of a product of square matrices is equal to the trace of any cyclic permutation of the product, a fact known as the cyclic property of the trace. For example, with three square matrices A, B, and C,
More generally, the same is true if the matrices are not assumed square, but are so shaped that all of these products exist.
Because of this, one may define the trace of a linear map f : V -> V (where V is a finite-dimensional vector space) by choosing a basis for V, describing f as a matrix relative to this basis, and taking the trace of this square matrix. The result will not depend on the basis chosen, since different bases will give rise to similar matrices.
This follows from the fact that A is always similar to its Jordan form, an upper triangular matrix having λ1,...,λn on the main diagonal.
The trace also prominently appears in Jacobi's formula for the derivative of the determinant (see under determinant).
