Unimodular matrix
In mathematics, a matrix is called unimodular , depending on its definition , if:
- Its determinant is 1, so it is an element of the special linear group .
- Its entries are integers and their determinant is 1 or −1, see integer unimodular matrix .
- Its determinant is 1 or −1, see unimodular transformation .
- The determinant is a unit (for matrices over a general commutative ring with one), i.e. the matrix is regular .
