In this video we explore how to multiply very large matrices as computationally efficiently as possible. Then standard algorithm from linear algebra results in n^3 multiplications to multiply nxn matrices. But can we do better? The Strassen algorithm improved this to about n^2.8, first in the 2x2 case and then we can prove via induction it works in general. This improvement has seen a range of improvements over the last 50 years inching closer - but still far away - to the theoretically limit of n^2.
