25 3.2. Inverses; Algebraic Properties of Matrices Zero Matrices A matrix whose entries are all zero is called a zero matrix.

26 3.2. Inverses; Algebraic Properties of Matrices Zero Matrices The cancellation law for real numbers: If ab=ac, and if a 0, then b=c. The cancellation law does not hold, in general, for matrix multiplication. Example 2

Thus, if A is invertible and B is an inverse of A, then it is also true that B is invertible and A is an inverse of B. Accordingly, when the condition AB=BA=I holds, it is correct to say that A and B are inverse of one another.

61 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Subspaces of R n In general, if W is a nonempty set of vectors in R n, then we say that W is closed under scalar multiplication if any scalar multiple of a vector in W is also in W, And we say that W is closed under addition if the sum of any two vectors in W is also in W. Let W be the plane through the origin of R n whose equation is

62 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Subspaces of R n The zero subspace and R n are called the trivial subspaces of R n. Example 1

63 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Subspaces of R n The subspace W of R n whose vectors satisfy (3) is called the span of v 1, v 2,, v s and is denoted by We also say that the vector v 1, v 2,, v s span W. The scalars in (3) are called parameters, and we can think of span{v 1, v 2,, v s } as the geometric object in R n that results when the parameters in (3) are allowed to vary independently from - to.

64 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Subspaces of R n Example 2 Thus, span{e 1, e 2,, e n }=R n ; that is, R n is spanned by the standard unit vectors.

65 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Subspaces of R n LOOKING AHEAD We will eventually show that every subspace of R n is the span of some finite set of vectors, and, in fact, is the span of at most n vectors. Example 4 All subspaces of R 2 fall into one of three categories: 1. The zero subspace 2. Lines through the origin 3. All of R 2 All subspaces of R 3 fall into one of four categories: 1. The zero subspace 2. Lines through the origin 3. Planes through the origin 4. All of R 3

66 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Solution Space of A Linear System Since x=0 is a solution of the system, we are assured that the solution set is nonempty. If x 0 is any solution of the system, A(kx 0 )=k(ax 0 )=k0=0 If x 1 and x 2 are solutions of the system, A(x 1 +x 2 )=Ax 1 +Ax 2 =0+0=0 The solution set of a homogeneous linear system is a subspace, we will refer to it as the solution space of the system. The solution space, being a subspace of R n, must be expressible in the form which we call a general solution of the system.

67 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Solution Space of A Linear System Example 5 The solution space can also be denoted by span{v 1, v 2, v 3 }, where v 1 =(-3,1,0,0,0,0), v 2 =(-4,0,-2,1,0,0), v 3 =(-2,0,0,0,1,0)

68 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Solution Space of A Linear System Example 7 The solution space of a homogeneous linear system in three unknowns is a subspace of R 3.

70 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Linear Independence

71 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Linear Independence Example 10 Two vectors v 1 and v 2 in R n are linearly dependent if and only if there are scalars c 1 and c 2, not both zero, such that c 1 0 and c 2 0 Two vectors in R n are linearly dependent if they are collinear and linearly independent if they are not.

72 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Linear Independence Example 11 Three vectors in R n are linearly dependent if they lie in a plane through the origin and are linearly independent if they do not.

73 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Linear Independence and Homogeneous Linear Systems Consider the n s matrix We can rewrite Ax=0 as

74 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Linear Independence and Homogeneous Linear Systems Example 12 In Example 6 of Section 3.3, where we showed that it has only the trivial solution. Thus, the vectors are linearly independent. In Example 4 of Section 3.3, where we showed that the coefficient matrix for this system is not invertible. This implies that the system has nontrivial solutions (Theorem 3.3.7), and hence that the vectors are linearly dependent.

75 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Linear Independence and Homogeneous Linear Systems Example 12 This system has more unknowns than equations, so it must have nontrivial solutions by Theorem This implies that the vectors are linearly dependent.

76 3.4. Subspaces and Linear Independence Translated Subspaces If x 0, v 1, v 2,, v s are vectors in R n, then the set of vectors of the form can be viewed as a translation by x 0 of the subspace We call it the translation of W by x0 and denote it by Translations of subspaces have various names in the literature, the most common being linear manifolds, flats, and affine spaces. We will call them linear manifolds.

81 3.5. The Geometry of Linear Systems The Relationship Between Ax=b and Ax=0 Example 1 Since the solution set of a consistent nonhomogeneous linear system is the translation of the solution space of the associated homogeneous system, the solution set of a consistent nonhomogeneous linear system in two or three unknowns must be one of the following:

83 3.5. The Geometry of Linear Systems Consistency of a Linear System from the Vector Point of View If the successive column vectors of A are a 1, a 2,, a n, Ax=b is rewritten as The linear system is consistent if and only if b can be expressed as a linear combination of the column vectors of A. If A is an m n matrix, then to say that b is a linear combination of the column vectors of A is the same as saying that b is in the subspace of R m spanned by the column vectors of A. This subspace is called the column space of A and is denoted by col(a).

84 3.5. The Geometry of Linear Systems Consistency of a Linear System from the Vector Point of View Example 2 Determine whether the vector w=(9,1,0) can be expressed as a linear combination of the vectors v 1 =(1,2,3), v 2 =(1,4,6), v 3 =(2,-3,-5) and, if so, find such a linear combination.

85 3.5. The Geometry of Linear Systems Hyperplanes The set of points (x 1, x 2,, x n ) in R n that satisfy a linear equation of the form is called a hyperplane in R n. The hyperplane passes through the origin.

86 3.5. The Geometry of Linear Systems Hyperplanes The hyperplane consists of all vectors x in R n that are orthogonal to the vector a. Hyperplane through the origin with normal a Orthogonal complement of a α (read, a perp )

93 3.6. Matrices with Special Forms Symmetric and Skew-symmetric Matrices A square matrix A is called symmetric if A T =A and skew-symmetric if A T = -A.

94 3.6. Matrices with Special Forms Symmetric and Skew-symmetric Matrices

95 3.6. Matrices with Special Forms Symmetric and Skew-symmetric Matrices Let A and B be symmetric matrices with the same size. If the product of A and B is symmetric, (AB) T =AB The product AB is symmetric if and only if AB=BA. Example 5

97 3.6. Matrices with Special Forms Matrices of the Form AA T and A T A The products AA T and A T A are always symmetric, since If A is invertible, A T is invertible, so the products AA T and A T A are invertible. (A -1 ) T =(A T ) -1

98 3.6. Matrices with Special Forms Fixed Points of a Matrix If A is a square matrix and Ax=x, the solutions of this equation, if any, are called the fixed points of A. Example 6

99 3.6. Matrices with Special Forms A Technique for Inverting I-A When A Is Nilpotent If A k =0, A square matrix A with the property that A k =0 for some positive integer k is said to be nilpotent, and the smallest positive power for which A k =0 is called the index of nilpotency.

103 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Solving Linear Systems by Factorization If a square matrix A is in the form A=LU (1) where L is lower triangular and U is upper triangular, Step 1. Rewrite the system Ax=b as LUx=b (2) Step 2. Define a new unknown y by letting Ux=y (3) and rewrite (2) as Ly=b. Step 3. Solve the system Ly=b for the unknown y. Step 4. Substitute the now-known vector y into (3) and solve for x. This procedure is called the method of LU-decomposition. Notice that Ly=b and Ux=y are easy to solve because their coefficient matrices are triangular.

104 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Solving Linear Systems by Factorization Example 1 Assume that Solve the following linear system

105 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Solving Linear Systems by Factorization In general, not every square matrix A has an LU-decomposition, nor is an LU-decomposition unique if it exists.

106 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Solving Linear Systems by Factorization Suppose that A is an n n matrix that has been reduced by elementary row operations without row interchanges to the row echelon form U. There is a sequence of elementary matrices E 1, E 2,, E k such that (8) Since elementary matrices are invertible, we can solve (8) for A as where (10)

107 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Solving Linear Systems by Factorization U is upper triangular because it is a row echelon form of the square matrix A. Notice that no row interchanges are used to obtain U from A and that in Gaussian elimination zeros are introduced by adding multiples of rows to lower rows. Each elementary matrix in (8) arises either by multiplying a row of the n n identity matrix by a scalar or by adding a multiple of a row to a lower row. In either case the resulting elementary matrix is lower triangular. Each of the matrices on the right side of (10) is lower triangular, so their product L is also lower triangular.

108 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Solving Linear Systems by Factorization A Procedure for finding an LU-decomposition of the matrix A: 1. Reduce A to a row echelon form U without using any row interchanges. 2. Keep track of the sequence of row operations performed, and let E 1, E 2,, E k be the sequence of elementary matrices that corresponds to those operations. 3. Let 4. A=LU is an LU-decomposition of A. Try to figure what entry to put into L, so that L will be reduced to I.

109 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Solving Linear Systems by Factorization Four step for finding an LU-decomposition of the matrix A: 1. Reduce A to row echelon form U without using row interchanges, keeping track of the multipliers used to introduce the leading 1 s and the multipliers used to introduce zeros below the leading 1 s. 2. In each position along the main diagonal of L, place the reciprocal of the multiplier that introduced the leading 1 in that position in U. 3. In each position below the main diagonal of L, place the negative of the multiplier used to introduce the zero in that position in U. 4. From the decomposition A=LU.

112 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Matrix Inversion by LU-Decomposition Many of the best algorithms for inverting matrices use LU-decomposition. Let Then, AA -1 =I can be expressed as This can be done by finding an LU-decomposition of A.

113 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition LDU-Decomposition U has 1 s on the main diagonal as it is a row echelon form of A, but L need not. We can shift the diagonal entries of L to a diagonal matrix D and write L as L=L D where L is a lower triangular matrix with 1 s on the main diagonal.

114 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition LDU-Decomposition If A is a square matrix that can be reduced to row echelon form without row interchanges, then A can be factored uniquely as A=LDU where L is a lower triangular matrix with 1 s on the main diagonal, D is a diagonal matrix, and U is an upper triangular matrix with 1 s on the main diagonal. This is called the LDU-decomposition (or LDU-factorization) of A.

115 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Using Permutation Matrices to Deal With Row Interchanges A matrix P is formed by multiplying in sequence those elementary matrices that corresponds to the row interchanges, and then execute all of these row interchanges on A by forming the product PA. Since all of the row interchanges are out of the way, the matrix PA can be reduced to row echelon form without row interchanges and hence an LU-decomposition PA=LU Since the matrix P is invertible (being a product of elementary matrices), the system Ax=b and PAx=Pb have the same solutions, and the latter system can be solved by LU-decomposition. P is called permutation matrix. This is called a PLU-decomposition of A.

116 3.7. Matrix Factorizations; LU-Decomposition Cost Estimates for Solving Large Linear Systems Neither method has a cost advantage over the other. However, LU-decomposition has other advantages that make it the method of choice:

117 3.8. Partitioned Matrices and Parallel Processing General Partitioning A matrix can be partitioned (subdivided) into submatrices (also called blocks) in various ways by inserting lines between selected rows and columns. where

118 3.8. Partitioned Matrices and Parallel Processing General Partitioning If the sizes of the blocks conform for the required operations, then the block version of the row-column rule of Theorem yields This procedure is called block multiplication.

123 3.8. Partitioned Matrices and Parallel Processing Block Diagonal Matrices A partitioned matrix A is said to be block diagonal if the matrices on the main diagonal are square and all matrices off the main diagonal are zero. where the matrices D 1, D 2,, D k are square. It can be shown that the matrix A is invertible if and only if each matrix on the diagonal is invertible, in which case

124 3.8. Partitioned Matrices and Parallel Processing Block Diagonal Matrices Example 3 Consider the block diagonal matrix

125 3.8. Partitioned Matrices and Parallel Processing Block Upper Triangular Matrices A partitioned matrix A is said to be block upper triangular if the matrices on the main diagonal are square and all matrices below the main diagonal are zero; that is, the matrix is partitioned as where the matrices A 11, A 22,, A kk are square. The definition of a block lower triangular matrix is similar.

126 3.8. Partitioned Matrices and Parallel Processing Block Upper Triangular Matrices This formula allows the work of inverting A to be accomplished by parallel processing, that is by using two individual processors working simultaneously to compute the inverse of the smaller matrices, A 11 and A 22.
