Key Math Terms and definitions covered in this textbook
-
Companion matrix.
Put CI, ... ,Cn in row n and put n - 1 ones just above the main diagonal. Then det(A - AI) = ±(CI + c2A + C3A 2 + .•. + cnA n-l - An).
-
Conjugate Gradient Method.
A sequence of steps (end of Chapter 9) to solve positive definite Ax = b by minimizing !x T Ax - x Tb over growing Krylov subspaces.
-
Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).
A factorization of the Fourier matrix Fn into e = log2 n matrices Si times a permutation. Each Si needs only nl2 multiplications, so Fnx and Fn-1c can be computed with ne/2 multiplications. Revolutionary.
-
Fourier matrix F.
Entries Fjk = e21Cijk/n give orthogonal columns FT F = nI. Then y = Fe is the (inverse) Discrete Fourier Transform Y j = L cke21Cijk/n.
-
Iterative method.
A sequence of steps intended to approach the desired solution.
-
Left inverse A+.
If A has full column rank n, then A+ = (AT A)-I AT has A+ A = In.
-
Linear transformation T.
Each vector V in the input space transforms to T (v) in the output space, and linearity requires T(cv + dw) = c T(v) + d T(w). Examples: Matrix multiplication A v, differentiation and integration in function space.
-
Multiplication Ax
= Xl (column 1) + ... + xn(column n) = combination of columns.
-
Network.
A directed graph that has constants Cl, ... , Cm associated with the edges.
-
Nilpotent matrix N.
Some power of N is the zero matrix, N k = o. The only eigenvalue is A = 0 (repeated n times). Examples: triangular matrices with zero diagonal.
-
Normal matrix.
If N NT = NT N, then N has orthonormal (complex) eigenvectors.
-
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).
-
Pivot columns of A.
Columns that contain pivots after row reduction. These are not combinations of earlier columns. The pivot columns are a basis for the column space.
-
Pivot.
The diagonal entry (first nonzero) at the time when a row is used in elimination.
-
Projection matrix P onto subspace S.
Projection p = P b is the closest point to b in S, error e = b - Pb is perpendicularto S. p 2 = P = pT, eigenvalues are 1 or 0, eigenvectors are in S or S...L. If columns of A = basis for S then P = A (AT A) -1 AT.
-
Projection p = a(aTblaTa) onto the line through a.
P = aaT laTa has rank l.
-
Rayleigh quotient q (x) = X T Ax I x T x for symmetric A: Amin < q (x) < Amax.
Those extremes are reached at the eigenvectors x for Amin(A) and Amax(A).
-
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.
-
Trace of A
= sum of diagonal entries = sum of eigenvalues of A. Tr AB = Tr BA.
-
Wavelets Wjk(t).
Stretch and shift the time axis to create Wjk(t) = woo(2j t - k).
