Only diagonal entries in a matrix is basically just n simple functions with no crossover, right?

[-] Zkuld@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Key advantage of a diagonal matrix is that all off-diagonal entries are zero, so yes, no crossover of functions (or basis elements).

But the functions may be as ugly as they please and there may be an infinite number of them.
