[1X6 Linear machines and elements[0X [13XLinear[0m machines are a special class of FR machines, in which the stateset Q and the alphabet X are vector spaces over a field Bbbk, and the transition map phi: Qotimes X-> Xotimes Q is a linear map; furthermore, there is a functional pi:Q->Bbbk called the [13Xoutput[0m. As before, a choice of initial state qin Q induces a linear map q:T(X)-> T(X), where T(X)=bigoplus X^otimes n is the tensor algebra generated by X. This map is defined as follows: given x=x_1otimesdotsotimes x_nin T(X), rewrite qotimes x as a sum of expressions of the form yotimes r with yin T(X) and rin Q; then q, by definition, maps x to the sum of the pi(r)y. There are two sorts of linear machines: [13Xvector machines[0m, for which the state space is a finite-dimensional vector space over a field; and [13Xalgebra machines[0m, for which the state space is a free algebra in a finite set of variables. In a vector machine, the transition and output maps are stored as a matrix and a vector respectively. Minimization algorithms are implemented, as for Mealy machines. In an algebra machine, the transition and output maps are stored as words in the algebra. These machines are natural extensions of group/monoid/semigroup machines. Linear elements are given by a linear machine and an initial state. They can be added and multiplied, and act on the tensor algebra of the alphabet, admitting natural representations as matrices.

[3Xoutput[0m and [3Xinit[0m are vectors in the stateset. In the "NC" version, no tests are performed to check that the arguments contain values within bounds, or even of the right type (beyond the simple checking performed by [5XGAP[0m's method selection algorithms). The first argument should be the family of the resulting object. These "NC" methods are mainly used internally by the package.
