Abstract

In this paper, we study nonsingular binary matrix space, GLn(Z2). The space is important in that it is used for the change of basis in binary encoding, which is the representation typically used in genetic algorithms. We analyze the properties of GLn(Z2) and discuss possible representation and recombination operators when used in volutionary algorithms. Not only typical approaches but also ones using elementary matrices of linear algebra are presented.
