Generalized Trigonometric Functions and Matrix Parameterization

Abstract

The generalized trigonometric functions (GTF) have been introduced using an appropriate redefinition of Euler type identities involving non-standard forms of imaginary numbers, realized by different types of matrices. In this paper we use the GTF to get parameterization of practical interest for non-singular matrices. The possibility of using this procedure to deal with applications in electron transport is also touched on.
