Q

Projections onto a plane

A

X = X - X.n/ |n|^2 x n

  1. Find n = , normal to the plane
  2. Project x onto n
    X.n =
    |n|^2 =
    X.n/|n|^2 x n =
  3. Subtract this from X to get the projection onto the plane

Q

What is the grand-Schmidt algorithm?

A

Start with vectors a, b, c …. all linearly independent
1. Define A =a
2. B = b - b.A/|A|^2 xA
3. C = c - c.A/|A|^2 xA - c.B/|B|^2 x B
C.B=0 C.A=0
4. Normalise
e1 =A/ sqrt(|A|^2), e2= B/sqrt(|B|^2), e3….

Q

Properties of determinants

A
  • Det =0 ‘singular’, A^-1 does not exist
  • Det A is not equal to zero there is a unique solution for Ax=b
  • Det In = 1
  • If A has two rows the same Det A =0
  • Det lamda A = lamda^2 Det A
  • Det(A transpose) = Det A
  • Det(AB) = Det(A) x Det(B)
  • If A has a row of zeros DetA =0

Q

Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors

A

Av = lamda V
v is the eigenvector and lamda is the eigenvalue
1. Calculate Det(A-lamda I)=0 to get values for lamda
2. Eigenvectors from (A- lamda I) v=0

product of lamda = Det (a)
sum of lamda = TR(a) - trace of a = sum of the diagonal elements of A

Q

Properties of eigenvectors and Eigenvalues

A
  1. Av = lama v. v is not equal to 0, if lambda = 0 v is an element of N(A) and if lama is not =0 v is an element of C(A).
  2. Av1=lamda1v1, Av2=lamda v2. lamda 1 not = lamda 2 then v1 and v2 are linearly independent
  3. lama 1 not= lamda 2 implies v1 and v2 are linearly independent
    lamda 1 = lamda 2, there may of may not exists 2 linearly independent vectors v1 and v2

Q

Diagonalise Matrix A

A
  1. Find lama j and Vj - eigenvalues and eigenvectors
  2. construct x = ( v1 v2 ….)
  3. calculate x^-1 A x = diagonal matrix, diagonal matrix of Eigen value
    If A is diagonalisable, x^-1 AX = diagonal matrix
17
Q

Powers of the diagonal matrix

A

The diagonal matrix to the power of n, has the diagonal elements of the matrix to the power n.
A = X(diagonal matrix) X^-1
A^m = X(diagonal matrix)^m X^-1

18
Q

Matrix exponentials

A

e^A exists for all matrices (nxn)

If diagonalisable
e^A = Xe^(diagonal matrix) X^-1
e^(diagonal matrix) is e^of the eigenvalues on the diagonal

19
Q

Symmetric and Hermitian Matrices

A

For real matrices S is symmetric iff S transpose =S
For complex matrices, S if Hermitian if S transpose =S
where S transpose = (S) transpose = (S transpose)^
cross symbol means complex conjugate and transpose

Real, symmetric implies hermitian

Two key properties of hermitian matrices

  1. eigenvalues are real
  2. always diagonalisable, even for repeated eigenvalues
