Diagonalization of nonlinear functions in finite-dimensional spaces and the case of ℝ2
Abstract
This paper introduces a new theoretical framework for the diagonalization of nonlinear functions defined in finite-dimensional real Euclidean spaces. Extending classical results from linear algebra, we provide a unified setting to determine when a nonlinear map can be represented in diagonal form via a change of basis. Due to the complexity of the equations involved, the final part of the paper focuses primarily on the two-dimensional case, for which clear characterizations can be obtained. We also illustrate how these theoretical findings can be applied to classical contexts, such as differential equations, dynamical systems, and the explicit computation of higher-order compositions and inverses of functions.
