congruence transformation

congruence transformation

[kən′grü·əns ‚tranz·fər‚mā·shən]
(mathematics)
Also known as transformation.
A mapping which associates with each real quadratic form on a set of coordinates the quadratic form that results when the coordinates are subjected to a linear transformation.
A mapping which associates with each square matrix A the matrix B = SAT, where S and T are nonsingular matrices, and T is the transpose of S ; if A represents the coefficients of a quadratic form, then this definition is equivalent to definition 1.
