Appendix: Concepts of Linear Algebra Appendix: Concepts of Linear Algebra In this appendix, some essential topics in linear algebra are reviewed. For each topic, we present some definitions, basic properties, and numerical examples. Notations An m ! n matrix A consists of m rows and n columns and mn elements (real or complex numbers) and is denoted by a11 a12 ! a1n a21 a22 ! a2n mn A " " $aij %i,j 1 " $aij %mn " $aij %. " "#" " am1 am2 ! amn The element aii is called the ith diagonal element of A and aij for i ! j is called the &i,j'th element of A. We say the size of A is m ! n or the order of A is m when m " n.Anm ! 1 matrix is said to be an m-vector or a column m-vector; and an 1 ! n matrix is said to be an n-vector or a row n "vector. To avoid any confusion, an n-vector means a column vector in this appendix and a row vector is represented by the transpose (it will be defined shortly) of a column vector. Commonly, Rn and Cn are notations for the sets of real and complex column n-vectors, respectively; and Rm!n and Cm!n are notations for the sets that contain all m ! n real and complex matrices, respectively. If we do not specify the type of a matrix A, then A can be either real or complex. The following are examples of a 2 ! 3 matrix, a column 2-vector and a row 3-vector: 102" i 1 A " , v " , w " abc . "2.5 3i "4 "2 A is said to be a square matrix if m " n, otherwise a rectangular matrix. Z is said to be a zero matrix, denoted by Z " $0%mn " 0, if all elements of Z are zero. Matrix D is said to be an n ! n diagonal matrix if all elements of D are zero except its diagonal elements and is commonly written as D "diag d1, #, dn .Ann ! n diagonal matrix with all diagonal elements equal to 1 is called the n ! n identity matrix, denoted by In or I. A matrix T is said to be an upper (lower) triangular matrix if all its elements below (above) its diagonal are zero. A matrix S is said to be a submatrix of A if the rows and columns of S are consecutive rows and columns of A. If the rows and and columns start from the first ones, S is also called a leading submatrix of A. For example, 3 "14 1 "2 S " 12 is a submatrix of A " and S " is a leading submatrix 512 "45 1 "23 of A " "45"6 . 7 "89 Basic Operations Transpose and Hermitian m!n T Given A " $aij % in R , the transpose of A, denoted by A ,isann ! m matrix whose rows are columns of A and columns are rows of A. When A is in Cm!n, the Hermitian of A, denoted by A!, n!m # is in C and its &i,j'th element is aji. For example, 14 123 1 $ i "2i 1 " i 3 A " , AT " 25 and B " , B! " . 456 34" i 2i 4 $ i 36 Trace of a Square Matrix The trace of an n ! n real square matrix A " $aij % is defined by the sum of the diagonal elements of A, that is, tr A n a . & ' " $k"1 kk 12 Example Let A " . Then, tr&A' " 1 $ 4 " 5. 34 It is not difficult to show that tr&AB' "tr&BA' provided that AB and BA both exist. Dot Product (or Inner Product) and Orthogonality u1 v1 Given two vectors u " " and v " " in Cn, the dot product or inner product of u un vn and v is a scalar ! and is defined as v1 n ! # # # ! " u v " u1 ! un " " $ uk vk. k"1 vn 1 "4 $ i "3 Example Let u " , v " and w " . Then 2 " 3i 5 " 6i 2 "4 $ i "3 u!v " 12$ 3i " "12 $ 26i, and wTw " "32 " 13. 5 " 6i 2 ! Vectors u and v are said to be orthogonal if u v " 0. A set of vectors (v1,...,vm ) is said to be ! ! orthogonal if vi vj " 0 for all i ! j; and is said to be orthonormal if in addition vi vi " 1 for all i " 1,...,m. Consider vectors 1 2 1 1 1 2 u1 " , u2 " , v1 " and v2 " . "1 2 2 "1 22 2 The set u1, u2 is orthogonal and the set v1, v2 is orthonormal. The dot product satisfies the Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality: &x!y'2 % &x!x'&y!y' for any vectors x and y in Cn. Matrix Addition and Scalar Multiplication Two matrices with the same size can be added or subtracted element-wise, and a matrix can be multiplied by a scalar (real or complex) element-wise. Let A " $aij %mn, B " $bij %mn and !," be scalars. Then A $ B " $aij $ bij %mn, !A " $!aij %mn and !A $ "B " $!aij $ "bij %mn. 123 789 Example Let A " , B " and ! " "2j.

Matrix Multiplication Given two matrices A " $aij % and B " $bkl % with sizes m ! r and r ! n, the product C " AB " $cij % is an m ! n matrix and its &i,j'thelement is defined as b1j r b2j cij " $ aktbkj " ai1 ai2 ! air k"1 " brj the dot product of the ith row of A " and the jth column of B. 12 1 "1 Example Let A " 34 , and B " .

Matrix multiplication has the following properties: 1. ABC " A&BC'"&AB'C; 2. &A $ B'C " AC $ BC; 3. A&B $ C' " AB $ AC; 4. &AB'T " BTAT if A and B are real, and &AB'! " B!A! if A and B are complex. In general, matrix multiplication is not commutative, i.e. AB ! BA even if both AB and BA are well-defined and have the same size. When A is a matrix and B is a vector, we can write AB in terms of the columns of A and elements of B, or the rows of A and vector B. Let A be an m ! n matrix and R1 A " C1 # Cn " " Rm b1 % % where Cis and Ris are columns and rows of A, respectively. Let B " " . Then bn R1B AB " b1C1 $ ! $ bnCm " " . RmB Partitioned Matrices In many applications it is convenient to partition a matrix into blocks (submatrices). For 123 A11 A12 example, the matrix A " 456 can be partitioned as A " where A21 A22 789 12 3 A11 " , A " , A21 " 78 , and A22 " $9%;or 45 12 6 4 56 A11 " 12 , A12 " $3%, A21 " , and A22 " . Operations on partitioned 7 89 matrices work as if the blocks were scalars. For example, A11 A12 A13 B11 B12 B13 A11$B11 A12$B12 A13$B13 $ " , A21 A22 A23 B21 B22 B23 A21$B21 A22$B22 A23$B23 A11 A12 A11B11$A12B21 A11B12$A12B22 B11 B12 A21 A22 " A21B11$A22B21 A21B12$A22B22 B21 B22 A31 A32 A31B11$A32B21 A31B12$A32B22 provided that all the block products are well-defined. Determinant of a Square Matrix Determinant The determinant of a square matrix A, denoted by det&A', is a scalar which provides some useful information about A. The determinants of 2 ! 2 and 3 ! 3 matrices are defined respectively as: a11 a12 det " a11a22 " a12a21, a21 a22 a11 a12 a13 a11a22a33 $ a21a13a32 $ a31a12a23 det a21 a22 a23 " . "a11a23a32 " a21a12a33 " a31a13a22 a31 a32 a33 For a general n ! n matrix A " $aij %, the determinant is defined as: n n i$k k$j det&A' " $&"1' aik det&Aik ' " $&"1' akj det&Akj ' k"1 k"1 for any 1 % i,j % n where Apq is the &n " 1' ! &n " 1' matrix resulting from the deletion of the row p and the column q of A.

    LECTURENOTES · purdue university MA 26500 Kyle Kloster Linear Algebra October 22, 2014 Linear Independence, Span, and Basis of a Set of Vectors What is linear independence? A set of vectors S = fv1; ··· ; vkg is linearly independent if none of the vectors vi can be written as a linear combination of the other vectors, i.e. vj = α1v1 + ··· + αkvk. Suppose the vector vj can be written as a linear combination of the other vectors, i.e. there exist scalars αi such that vj = α1v1 + ··· + αkvk holds. (This is equivalent to saying that the vectors v1; ··· ; vk are linearly dependent). We can subtract vj to move it over to the other side to get an expression 0 = α1v1 + ··· αkvk (where the term vj now appears on the right hand side. In other words, the condition that \the set of vectors S = fv1; ··· ; vkg is linearly dependent" is equivalent to the condition that there exists αi not all of which are zero such that 2 3 α1 6α27 0 = v v ··· v 6 7 : 1 2 k 6 . 7 4 . 5 αk More concisely, form the matrix V whose columns are the vectors vi. Then the set S of vectors vi is a linearly dependent set if there is a nonzero solution x such that V x = 0. This means that the condition that \the set of vectors S = fv1; ··· ; vkg is linearly independent" is equivalent to the condition that \the only solution x to the equation V x = 0 is the zero vector, i.e. x = 0.

    Tubal Matrices Liqun Qi∗ and ZiyanLuo† June 15, 2021 Abstract It was shown recently that the f-diagonal tensor in the T-SVD factorization must satisfy some special properties. Such f-diagonal tensors are called s-diagonal tensors. In this paper, we show that such a discussion can be extended to any real invertible linear transformation. We show that two Eckart-Young like theo- rems hold for a third order real tensor, under any doubly real-preserving unitary transformation. The normalized Discrete Fourier Transformation (DFT) matrix, an arbitrary orthogonal matrix, the product of the normalized DFT matrix and an arbitrary orthogonal matrix are examples of doubly real-preserving unitary transformations. We use tubal matrices as a tool for our study. We feel that the tubal matrix language makes this approach more natural. Key words.

  • Linear Independence, the Wronskian, and Variation of Parameters
    LINEAR INDEPENDENCE, THE WRONSKIAN, AND VARIATION OF PARAMETERS JAMES KEESLING In this post we determine when a set of solutions of a linear differential equation are linearly independent. We first discuss the linear space of solutions for a homogeneous differential equation. 1. Homogeneous Linear Differential Equations We start with homogeneous linear nth-order ordinary differential equations with general coefficients. The form for the nth-order type of equation is the following. dnx dn−1x (1) a (t) + a (t) + ··· + a (t)x = 0 n dtn n−1 dtn−1 0 It is straightforward to solve such an equation if the functions ai(t) are all constants. However, for general functions as above, it may not be so easy. However, we do have a principle that is useful. Because the equation is linear and homogeneous, if we have a set of solutions fx1(t); : : : ; xn(t)g, then any linear combination of the solutions is also a solution. That is (2) x(t) = C1x1(t) + C2x2(t) + ··· + Cnxn(t) is also a solution for any choice of constants fC1;C2;:::;Cng. Now if the solutions fx1(t); : : : ; xn(t)g are linearly independent, then (2) is the general solution of the differential equation. We will explain why later. What does it mean for the functions, fx1(t); : : : ; xn(t)g, to be linearly independent? The simple straightforward answer is that (3) C1x1(t) + C2x2(t) + ··· + Cnxn(t) = 0 implies that C1 = 0, C2 = 0, ::: , and Cn = 0 where the Ci's are arbitrary constants. This is the definition, but it is not so easy to determine from it just when the condition holds to show that a given set of functions, fx1(t); x2(t); : : : ; xng, is linearly independent.

  • Fourier Transform, Convolution Theorem, and Linear Dynamical Systems April 28, 2016
    Mathematical Tools for Neuroscience (NEU 314) Princeton University, Spring 2016 Jonathan Pillow Lecture 23: Fourier Transform, Convolution Theorem, and Linear Dynamical Systems April 28, 2016. Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) We will focus on the discrete Fourier transform, which applies to discretely sampled signals (i.e., vectors). Linear algebra provides a simple way to think about the Fourier transform: it is simply a change of basis, specifically a mapping from the time domain to a representation in terms of a weighted combination of sinusoids of different frequencies. The discrete Fourier transform is therefore equiv- alent to multiplying by an orthogonal (or \unitary", which is the same concept when the entries are complex-valued) matrix1. For a vector of length N, the matrix that performs the DFT (i.e., that maps it to a basis of sinusoids) is an N × N matrix. The k'th row of this matrix is given by exp(−2πikt), for k 2 [0; :::; N − 1] (where we assume indexing starts at 0 instead of 1), and t is a row vector t=0:N-1;. Recall that exp(iθ) = cos(θ) + i sin(θ), so this gives us a compact way to represent the signal with a linear superposition of sines and cosines. The first row of the DFT matrix is all ones (since exp(0) = 1), and so the first element of the DFT corresponds to the sum of the elements of the signal. It is often known as the \DC component". The next row is a complex sinusoid that completes one cycle over the length of the signal, and each subsequent row has a frequency that is an integer multiple of this \fundamental" frequency.

  • Span, Linear Independence and Basis Rank and Nullity
    Remarks for Exam 2 in Linear Algebra Span, linear independence and basis The span of a set of vectors is the set of all linear combinations of the vectors. A set of vectors is linearly independent if the only solution to c1v1 + ::: + ckvk = 0 is ci = 0 for all i. Given a set of vectors, you can determine if they are linearly independent by writing the vectors as the columns of the matrix A, and solving Ax = 0. If there are any non-zero solutions, then the vectors are linearly dependent. If the only solution is x = 0, then they are linearly independent. A basis for a subspace S of Rn is a set of vectors that spans S and is linearly independent. There are many bases, but every basis must have exactly k = dim(S) vectors. A spanning set in S must contain at least k vectors, and a linearly independent set in S can contain at most k vectors. A spanning set in S with exactly k vectors is a basis. A linearly independent set in S with exactly k vectors is a basis. Rank and nullity The span of the rows of matrix A is the row space of A. The span of the columns of A is the column space C(A). The row and column spaces always have the same dimension, called the rank of A. Let r = rank(A). Then r is the maximal number of linearly independent row vectors, and the maximal number of linearly independent column vectors. So if r < n then the columns are linearly dependent; if r < m then the rows are linearly dependent.

  • The Discrete Fourier Transform
    Tutorial 2 - Learning about the Discrete Fourier Transform This tutorial will be about the Discrete Fourier Transform basis, or the DFT basis in short. What is a basis? If we google define `basis', we get: \the underlying support or foundation for an idea, argument, or process". In mathematics, a basis is similar. It is an underlying structure of how we look at something. It is similar to a coordinate system, where we can choose to describe a sphere in either the Cartesian system, the cylindrical system, or the spherical system. They will all describe the same thing, but in different ways. And the reason why we have different systems is because doing things in specific basis is easier than in others. For exam- ple, calculating the volume of a sphere is very hard in the Cartesian system, but easy in the spherical system. When working with discrete signals, we can treat each consecutive element of the vector of values as a consecutive measurement. This is the most obvious basis to look at a signal. Where if we have the vector [1, 2, 3, 4], then at time 0 the value was 1, at the next sampling time the value was 2, and so on, giving us a ramp signal. This is called a time series vector. However, there are also other basis for representing discrete signals, and one of the most useful of these is to use the DFT of the original vector, and to express our data not by the individual values of the data, but by the summation of different frequencies of sinusoids, which make up the data.

  • Quantum Fourier Transform Revisited
    Quantum Fourier Transform Revisited Daan Camps1,∗, Roel Van Beeumen1, Chao Yang1, 1Computational Research Division, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, CA, United States Abstract The fast Fourier transform (FFT) is one of the most successful numerical algorithms of the 20th century and has found numerous applications in many branches of computational science and engineering. The FFT algorithm can be derived from a particular matrix decomposition of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) matrix. In this paper, we show that the quantum Fourier transform (QFT) can be derived by further decomposing the diagonal factors of the FFT matrix decomposition into products of matrices with Kronecker product structure. We analyze the implication of this Kronecker product structure on the discrete Fourier transform of rank-1 tensors on a classical computer. We also explain why such a structure can take advantage of an important quantum computer feature that enables the QFT algorithm to attain an exponential speedup on a quantum computer over the FFT algorithm on a classical computer. Further, the connection between the matrix decomposition of the DFT matrix and a quantum circuit is made. We also discuss a natural extension of a radix-2 QFT decomposition to a radix-d QFT decomposition. No prior knowledge of quantum computing is required to understand what is presented in this paper. Yet, we believe this paper may help readers to gain some rudimentary understanding of the nature of quantum computing from a matrix computation point of view. 1 Introduction The fast Fourier transform (FFT) [3] is a widely celebrated algorithmic innovation of the 20th century [19]. The algorithm allows us to perform a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of a vector of size N in (N log N) O operations.

Abstract—In this article, we analyze the limiting eigen- multivariate statistics of high-dimensional data. In this case, value distribution (LED) of random geometric graphs the coordinates of the nodes can represent the attributes of (RGGs). The RGG is constructed by uniformly distribut- the data. Then, the metric imposed by the RGG depicts the ing n nodes on the d-dimensional torus Td ≡ [0; 1]d and similarity between the data. connecting two nodes if their `p-distance, p 2 [1; 1] is at In this work, the RGG is constructed by considering a most rn. In particular, we study the LED of the adjacency finite set Xn of n nodes, x1; :::; xn; distributed uniformly and matrix of RGGs in the connectivity regime, in which independently on the d-dimensional torus Td ≡ [0; 1]d. We the average vertex degree scales as log (n) or faster, i.e., choose a torus instead of a cube in order to avoid boundary Ω (log(n)). In the connectivity regime and under some effects. Given a geographical distance, rn > 0, we form conditions on the radius rn, we show that the LED of a graph by connecting two nodes xi; xj 2 Xn if their `p- the adjacency matrix of RGGs converges to the LED of distance, p 2 [1; 1] is at most rn, i.e., kxi − xjkp ≤ rn, the adjacency matrix of a deterministic geometric graph where k:kp is the `p-metric defined as (DGG) with nodes in a grid as n goes to infinity.
