													Abstract | 
												 
												
													| 
													 | 
												 
												
													| The inverse of the Vandermonde and confluent Vandermonde matrices are presented.
In the case of the Vandermonde matrix, we present a decomposition in three factors,
one of them a diagonal matrix. The evaluation of such inverse matrices is a key point
to find functions of a matrix, namely exponential functions (evolution operators) and
logarithmic functions (entropies) in quantum mechanical topics. |
