　　报告题目：From Dimension-Free Matrix Theory to Cross-Dimensional Dynamic Systems

　　报告嘉宾：Daizhan Cheng

　　报告概要：Motivated by the semi-tensor product of matrices, which is now called the M-product, a systematic dimension-free matrix theory is proposed. It consists of M-product, V-product of matrices; M-addition, V-addition of matrices/vectors; and M-equivalence, V-equivalence of matrices/vectors. All these operators with newly developed properties form the dimension-free matrix theory. Under this new framework, all the matrices with arbitrary dimensions form a vector space M, and all the vectors with arbitrary dimensions also form a vector space V. Certain further geometric structures are explored. For instance, the fiber bundle structure of M and V over equivalence classes is obtained.

　　Because both M and V are dimension-free, the action of M on V becomes a cross-dimensional linear system. The trajectory of the system is calculated and certain properties are revealed. The system is naturally developed to (discrete/continuous) cross-dimensional control systems. Finally, the cross-dimensional nonlinear (control) systems are also investigated.

　　Cross-dimensional system theory may be used to investigate dimension-varying systems such as internets, genetic networks; uncertain-dimensional systems such as superstring in theoretical physics;  or engineering systems such as power generators.
