	cofactor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		In mathematics a cofactor is the minor of an element of a square matrix.
		Cofactors generally are either bound tightly to active sites, or may bind loosely with the substrate.
		Some cofactors are inorganic, such as the metal atoms zinc, iron, and copper in certain forms.

	Scientists take 'snapshots' of enzyme action
		In the second stage (Figure 2), the cofactor NADPH (shown as a ball and stick model in cyan) approaches the enzyme and interacts with the coenzyme.
		First, the cofactor (known as NADPH) binds to a molecule known as FAD, which is a coenzyme attached to the FMO, and transfers a hydride ion to it.
		At this moment an oxygen atom from molecular oxygen is attached to the substrate, and the hydride ion obtained from the cofactor combines with the other oxygen atom to form a water molecule, which is released.

	Invertible matrix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In mathematics and especially linear algebra, an n-by-n (square) matrix A is called invertible, non-singular, or regular if there exists another n-by-n matrix B such that
		For other purposes, a variant of Newton's method may be convenient (particularly when dealing with families of related matrices, so inverses of earlier matrices can be used to seed generating inverses of later matrices).
		Writing another special matrix of cofactors, known as an adjugate matrix, can also be an efficient way to calculate the inverse of small matrices (since this method is essentially recursive, it becomes inefficient for large matrices).

		Where Cij is the cofactor of aij, and Mij is the minor of A formed by removing row i and column j.
		Each cofactor is the determinant of a (k-1) by (k-1) matrix.
		Note that the step (-1)^(i+j) in the cofactor has been neglected because it is a computationally simple operation of sign flipping.

		Cofactor expansion along any row or column will involve the evaluation of four 3×3 determinants, each of which will require the evaluation of three 2×2 determinants.
		The presence of the zeroes in row 3 suggests a cofactor expansion.
		We could continue with the row reduction, but the cofactor expansion is now easier than it would have been earlier.

		Arithmetic or arithmetics (from the Greek word αριθμός = number) in common usage is a branch of (or the forerunner of) mathematics which records elementary properties of certain operations on numerals, though in usage by professional mathematicians, it often is treated as synonym for number theory.
		In mathematics, an arithmetic group (arithmetic subgroup) in a linear algebraic group G defined over a number field K is a subgroup Γ of G (K) that is commensurable with G (O), where O is the ring of integers of K.
		Here two subgroups A and B of a group are commensurable when their intersection has finite index in each of them.

		In the mathematical field of graph theory Kirchhoff's theorem or Kirchhoff's matrix tree theorem named after Gustav Kirchhoff is a theorem about the number of spanning trees in a graph.
		It is a generalization of Cayley's formula which provides the number of spanning trees in a complete graph.
		In other words the number of spanning trees is equal to any cofactor of the admittance matrix of G.

		After this continuation, the result is a matrix B that has the required form.
		It is easy to prove that for the matrix B, its determinant does not depend on the row or column chosen for cofactor expansion.
		By induction, therefore, it is true that the determinant of any matrix does not depend on the particular row or column chosen.

		Many questions are unsuitable for randomised multiple choice, as the form of the correct answer may be too obvious, the errors students make are due to careless arithmetic rather than typical misunderstandings, or it may be that a student who does not understand the material cannot make any progress on the question at all.
		Numeric answers for fill-in-the-answer style questions present few problems, but if the answer is a mathematical expression then the complexity of the syntax required to enter it should not place excessive demands on the student.
		Four questions have been designed, the first asks students to find the determinant of a 2x2 matrix, the second a 3x3 using cofactor expansion, the third is again a 3x3 matrix, but uses row and column operations, and the fourth does this for a 4x4 matrix.

		This method uses the matrix LU decomposition to guarantee correct results even for non-commutative operables (the famous formula: a00·a11-a10·a01 for 2x2 matrices is incorrect when operables are non-commutative).
		It is the value obtained by evaluating the determinant formed by the elements not in that particular row or column.
		It is obtained by replacing each element in this matrix with its cofactor and applying a + or - sign according (-1)**(i+j), and then finding the transpose of the resulting matrix.
