Updating the Inverse of a Matrix
Abstract
The Sherman–Morrison–Woodbury formulas relate the inverse of a matrix after a small-rank perturbation to the inverse of the original matrix. The history of these fomulas is presented and various applications to statistics, networks, structural analysis, asymptotic analysis, optimization, and partial differential equations are discussed. The Sherman-Morrison-Woodbury formulas express the inverse of a matrix after a small rank perturbation in terms of the inverse of the original matrix. This paper surveys the history of these formulas and we examine some applications where these formulas are helpful

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
