Newton s ethod in ultiple diensions. he Background For functions of a single variable the equation f ( ) 0 can be solved approiately by an iteration known as the Newton Raphson ethod. he ethod can be derived fro the linear or tangent approiation to f ( ). Suppose we have an initial guess n to a solution or root of f ( ) 0. he linear approiation about n is f ( ) f ( ' n) + f ( n)( n) if we set f ( ) 0 this gives an f ( n ) f ( n ) equation for the change Δ n which gives the recursion f ' n+ n. If the f ' ( ) n Δ ethod works the relative error of the approiation becoes very sall as we iterate. Whether in n fact this happens usually depends on the initial guess 0. If the derivative vanishes at the desired root, the ethod can be very inefficient or actually divergent. Now consider the syste of equations in variables ( ) vector notation,,, linear approiation to equation j becoes f ( ) f ( ) + ( ) ( ) f,,, 0for j. Adopting the j with vector length,,,,,, j, the j j f j j n ( i i i n i ), where the partial n n F f j n by Fji, i n n n n and the colun Δ i i n. he linear approiation to equation j can now be written as the j th row of a i f j fj n + FjiΔi. Since we want fj ( ) 0, this yields the syste of linear i derivatives are evaluated at ( ),( ),,( ). Define the atri ( ) where again the partial derivatives are evaluated at ( ), ( ),, ( ) vector ( ) atri product ( ) ( ) equations FΔ b, where the colun vector b is given by bj fj( n). If the Jacobian atri F is nonsingular then there is a unique solution Δ F b. his leads to the recursion n+ ( n) +Δ, ( n) +Δ,,( n) +Δ As in diension we iterate until the relative error Δ given by the ratio becoes very sall and convergence of the ethod depends on the initial guess n,,,.

Using Newton s ethod, approiate the solution in the first 6 quadrant to a relative error saller than0. Depending on your initial guess you ay need ore or less than 6 iterations. Record your results in the following table. Prograing the ethod into Ecel or a graphing calculator will ake this calculation anageable.

In atri for this is epressed as A b where A is an n atri, is an n colun vector and b is an colun vector. We will assue that A has colun rank of n. his eans that in reduced row echelon for A has n nonzero rows followed by -n rows of zeros. In general for an arbitrary colun vector b the syste A b would be inconsistent, i.e., the reduced row echelon for of the augented atri [A b] would not have all zeros in the botto -n rows of the last colun. hus, for ost choices of b there is no that solves the syste. However, there is an that iniizes the distance between A and b. his is called the least squares solution of the syste. he squared distance fro b of A is a function of the n coordinates in and is given by the epression n n n n f ( ) b A ( bj ( A) ) ( ) j bj Ajii bj bj Ajii + Ajk k Ajii j j i j i i k n n n n n n b b bjajii + AkjA ji ik b b bjajii + ( A A) ik ki j i i k j j i i k For fied b the distance fro A to b has no upper bound, but it ust have a iniu since it is bounded below by zero. he partial derivatives of f with respect to each coordinate of ust vanish at the value of //0 Madison Area echnical College
