Key Math Terms and definitions covered in this textbook
-
Column picture of Ax = b.
The vector b becomes a combination of the columns of A. The system is solvable only when b is in the column space C (A).
-
Column space C (A) =
space of all combinations of the columns of A.
-
Covariance matrix:E.
When random variables Xi have mean = average value = 0, their covariances "'£ ij are the averages of XiX j. With means Xi, the matrix :E = mean of (x - x) (x - x) T is positive (semi)definite; :E is diagonal if the Xi are independent.
-
Cramer's Rule for Ax = b.
B j has b replacing column j of A; x j = det B j I det A
-
Diagonalization
A = S-1 AS. A = eigenvalue matrix and S = eigenvector matrix of A. A must have n independent eigenvectors to make S invertible. All Ak = SA k S-I.
-
Dot product = Inner product x T y = XI Y 1 + ... + Xn Yn.
Complex dot product is x T Y . Perpendicular vectors have x T y = O. (AB)ij = (row i of A)T(column j of B).
-
Hankel matrix H.
Constant along each antidiagonal; hij depends on i + j.
-
Hypercube matrix pl.
Row n + 1 counts corners, edges, faces, ... of a cube in Rn.
-
Least squares solution X.
The vector x that minimizes the error lie 112 solves AT Ax = ATb. Then e = b - Ax is orthogonal to all columns of A.
-
Linearly dependent VI, ... , Vn.
A combination other than all Ci = 0 gives L Ci Vi = O.
-
Matrix multiplication AB.
The i, j entry of AB is (row i of A)·(column j of B) = L aikbkj. By columns: Column j of AB = A times column j of B. By rows: row i of A multiplies B. Columns times rows: AB = sum of (column k)(row k). All these equivalent definitions come from the rule that A B times x equals A times B x .
-
Pascal matrix
Ps = pascal(n) = the symmetric matrix with binomial entries (i1~;2). Ps = PL Pu all contain Pascal's triangle with det = 1 (see Pascal in the index).
-
Random matrix rand(n) or randn(n).
MATLAB creates a matrix with random entries, uniformly distributed on [0 1] for rand and standard normal distribution for randn.
-
Simplex method for linear programming.
The minimum cost vector x * is found by moving from comer to lower cost comer along the edges of the feasible set (where the constraints Ax = b and x > 0 are satisfied). Minimum cost at a comer!
-
Spectrum of A = the set of eigenvalues {A I, ... , An}.
Spectral radius = max of IAi I.
-
Stiffness matrix
If x gives the movements of the nodes, K x gives the internal forces. K = ATe A where C has spring constants from Hooke's Law and Ax = stretching.
-
Sum V + W of subs paces.
Space of all (v in V) + (w in W). Direct sum: V n W = to}.
-
Toeplitz matrix.
Constant down each diagonal = time-invariant (shift-invariant) filter.
-
Vector v in Rn.
Sequence of n real numbers v = (VI, ... , Vn) = point in Rn.
-
Volume of box.
The rows (or the columns) of A generate a box with volume I det(A) I.
