Chapter 9: Matrix Factorization Chapter 9: Matrix Factorization • Positive Definite Matrices Definition: An n × n symmetric real matrix M is positive definite if: x, Mx = xT Mx> 0 for all x ∈ Rn and x = 0. M is positive semidefinite if x, Mx = xT Mx ≥ 0 ∀ x ∈ Rn M is negative definite if x, Mx = xT Mx< 0 for all x ∈ Rn and x = 0. M is negative semidefinite if x, Mx = xT Mx ≤ 0 ∀ x ∈ Rn. 1 Definition: A nonzero column vector x is an eigenvector of a square matrix M if ∃ a scalar λ such that Mx = λx Then λ is an eigenvalue of M. Definition: A principal minor of M is the determinant of any submatrix obtained from M by deleting its last k rows and k columns (k =0, 1, ··· , n − 1). 2 Properties: Given an n × n symmetric real matrix M (i) M is positive definite if and only if all its eigenvalues are positive; (ii) M is positive definite if and only if all its principal minors are positive. Some Necessary Conditions for a symmetric positive definite matrix: (i) All diagonal elements of M must be positive. (ii) The element of M having the largest absolute value must be on the diagonal of M 2 (iii) miimjj > |mij| , ∀i = j. 3 Definition: The square root of a matrix M is a matrix M 1/2 such that M = M 1/2M 1/2. Properties: If M and M 1/2 are both required to be positive definite (or positive semidefinite), then M 1/2 is unique. 4 Theorem: Let A be an m × n matrix with full row rank (m ≤ n), then AAT is positive definite. Proof: (i) AAT is symmetric. (ii) x,AAT x = xT AAT x = AT x≥ 0, ∀x ∈ Rm. If x,AAT x = 0, then AT x = 0. Since A has full row rank, we have x = 0. Hence: x,AAT x > 0 ∀x ∈ Rm and x = 0. 5 Corollary: Let A be an m × n matrix with full row rank and D be a diagonal matrix with all diagonal elements being positive, then ADAT is positive definite. Proof: ADAT = AD1/2D1/2AT = (AD1/2)(AD1/2)T 6 • Cholesky Factorization Main Theorem: If M is an n × n symmetric positive definite matrix, then it has a unique triangular factorization LLT , where L is a lower triangular matrix with positive diagonal elements. 7 Proof: The proof is by induction on the order of the matrix M. The result is certainly true for one by one matrices since m11 is positive. Suppose the assertion is true for matrices of order n − 1. Let M be a symmetric positive definite matrix of order n. It can be partitioned into the form d vT M = : v H where d is a positive scalar and H is an n−1 by n−1 submatrix. The partitioned matrix can be written as the product p ! p T ! d 0 1 0 d pv d pv I d n−1 0 H 0 In−1 vvT where H = H − d . Clearly the matrix H is symmetric. It is also positive definite since for any nonzero vector x of length n − 1, vvT xT Hx = xT (H − )x d T ! xT v d vT −x v = (− ; xT ) d d v H x which implies xT Hx ≥ 0. By the induction assumption, H has a T triangular factorization LHLH with positive diagonals. Thus, M 8 can be expressed as p ! p T ! d 0 1 0 1 0 d pv d pv I T d n−1 0 LH 0 LH 0 In−1 p ! p T ! d 0 d pv = d pv L T d H 0 LH = LLT It is left to the reader to show that the factor L is unique. 9 • Computing Cholesky Factor 1. Outer Product Form: T d1 v1 M = A0 = H0 = v1 H1 p ! ! p T ! 1 0 v1 d1 0 d1 p = v T d1 p 1 v1v1 In−1 0 H1 − d1 d1 0 In−1 1 0 T = L1 L1 0 H1 T = L1A1L1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 T A1 = = @ 0 d2 v2 A 0 H1 0 v2 H2 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 p 0 = B 0 d2 C B 0 1 0 C @ v A @ T A p 2 v2v2 0 In−2 0 0 H2 − d2 d2 0 1 0 0 1 p T v2 B d2 p C @ d2 A 0 In−2 T = L2A2L2 . T An−1 = LnInLn : 10 Here, for 1 ≤ i ≤ n; di is a positive scalar, vi is a vector of length n − i, and, Hi is a n − i by n − i positive definite symmetric matrix. After N steps of the algorithm, we have T T T T M = L1L2 ··· LnLn ··· L2 L1 = LL : where it can be shown (see Exercise 2.1.6) that L = L1 + L2 + ··· + Ln − (n − 1)In: Thus, the i-th column of L is precisely the i-th column of Li. In this scheme, the column of L are computed one by one. At the same time, each step involves the modification of the submatrix T vivi Hi by the outer product to give Hi, which is simply the sub- di matrix remaining to be factored. The access to the components of M during the factorization is depicted as follows. 11 2. Bordering Method: An alternative formulation of the factorization process is the Bor- dering Method. Suppose the matrix M is partitioned as M u M = uT s where the symmetric factorization L LT of the n − 1 by n − 1 M M leading principle submatrix M has already been obtained. (why is M positive definite?) Then factorization of M is given by L 0 LT w M = M M wT t 0 t where w = L−1u M and t = (s − wT w)1=2: (Why is s − wT w positive?) Note that the factorization L LT of the submatrix M is also ob- M M tained by the bordering technique. So, the scheme can be described as follows. For i = 1; 2; : : : ; n, 0 1 0 1 0 1 l1;1 0 li;1 ai;1 . Solve @ . .. A @ . A = @ . A li−1;1 : : : li−1;i−1 li;i−1 ai;i−1 Compute i−1 X 2 1=2 li;i = (ai;i − li;k) : k=1 12 In this scheme, the rows of L are computed one at a time, the part of the matrix remaining to be factored is not accessed until the corresponding part of L is to be computed. The sequence of computations can be depicted as follows. 13 3. Inner Product Form: The final scheme for computing the components of L is the Inner Product Form of the algorithm. It can be described as follows. For j = 1; 2; : : : ; n, Compute j−1 X 2 1=2 lj;j = (aj;j − lj;k) . k=1 For i = j + 1; j + 2; : : : ; n, Compute j−1 ! X li;j = ai;j − li;klj;k =lj;j: k=1 These formulae can be derived directly by equating the elements of A to the corresponding elements of the product LLT . Like the outer product version of the algorithm, the columns of L are computed one by one, but the part of the matrix remaining to be factored is not accessed during the scheme. The sequence of computations and the relevant access to the components of M (or L) is depicted as follows. 14 The latter two formulations can be organized so that only inner products are involved. This can be used to improve the accuracy of the numerical factorization by accumulating the inner products in double precision. On some computers, this can be done at little extra cost. 15 # • Block Cholesky T TT MMM11 12 13 L11 LL11 21L 31 MMM = LL T T 21 22 23 21 22 L22 L32 MMM31 32 33 L31 L32L 33 T L33 M = L LT T M11 = L11L11 ← L11 T M21 = L21L11 ← L21 T M31 = L31L11 ← L31 T T M22 = L21L21 + L22L22 △ T T S22 = M22 − L21L21 = L22L22 ← L22 T T M32 = L31L21 + L32L22 △ T T S32 = M32 − L31L21 = L32L22 ← L32 T T T M33 = L31L31 + L32L32 + L33L33 △ T T T S33 = M33 − L31L31 − L32L32 = L33L33 ← L33 " Slide#16 !

Precisely, we study the inverse of a matrix along a lower triangular matrix, under some conditions. Keywords: Generalized inverse, inverse along an element, Dedekind-finite ring, Green's relations, rings AMS classification: 15A09, 16E50 1 Introduction In this paper, R is a ring with identity. We say a is (von Neumann) regular in R if a 2 aRa.A particular solution to axa = a is denoted by a−, and the set of all such solutions is denoted by af1g. Given a−; a= 2 af1g then x = a=aa− satisfies axa = a; xax = a simultaneously. Such a solution is called a reflexive inverse, and is denoted by a+. The set of all reflexive inverses of a is denoted by af1; 2g. Finally, a is group invertible if there is a# 2 af1; 2g that commutes with a, and a is Drazin invertible if ak is group invertible, for some non-negative integer k. This is equivalent to the existence of aD 2 R such that ak+1aD = ak; aDaaD = aD; aaD = aDa.

  • Handout 9 More Matrix Properties; the Transpose
    Handout 9 More matrix properties; the transpose Square matrix properties These properties only apply to a square matrix, i.e. n £ n. ² The leading diagonal is the diagonal line consisting of the entries a11, a22, a33, . ann. ² A diagonal matrix has zeros everywhere except the leading diagonal. ² The identity matrix I has zeros o® the leading diagonal, and 1 for each entry on the diagonal. It is a special case of a diagonal matrix, and A I = I A = A for any n £ n matrix A. ² An upper triangular matrix has all its non-zero entries on or above the leading diagonal. ² A lower triangular matrix has all its non-zero entries on or below the leading diagonal. ² A symmetric matrix has the same entries below and above the diagonal: aij = aji for any values of i and j between 1 and n. ² An antisymmetric or skew-symmetric matrix has the opposite entries below and above the diagonal: aij = ¡aji for any values of i and j between 1 and n. This automatically means the digaonal entries must all be zero. Transpose To transpose a matrix, we reect it across the line given by the leading diagonal a11, a22 etc. In general the result is a di®erent shape to the original matrix: a11 a21 a11 a12 a13 > > A = A = 0 a12 a22 1 [A ]ij = A : µ a21 a22 a23 ¶ ji a13 a23 @ A > ² If A is m £ n then A is n £ m. > ² The transpose of a symmetric matrix is itself: A = A (recalling that only square matrices can be symmetric).

  • Triangular Factorization
    Chapter 1 Triangular Factorization This chapter deals with the factorization of arbitrary matrices into products of triangular matrices. Since the solution of a linear n n system can be easily obtained once the matrix is factored into the product× of triangular matrices, we will concentrate on the factorization of square matrices. Specifically, we will show that an arbitrary n n matrix A has the factorization P A = LU where P is an n n permutation matrix,× L is an n n unit lower triangular matrix, and U is an n ×n upper triangular matrix. In connection× with this factorization we will discuss pivoting,× i.e., row interchange, strategies. We will also explore circumstances for which A may be factored in the forms A = LU or A = LLT . Our results for a square system will be given for a matrix with real elements but can easily be generalized for complex matrices. The corresponding results for a general m n matrix will be accumulated in Section 1.4. In the general case an arbitrary m× n matrix A has the factorization P A = LU where P is an m m permutation× matrix, L is an m m unit lower triangular matrix, and U is an×m n matrix having row echelon structure.× × 1.1 Permutation matrices and Gauss transformations We begin by defining permutation matrices and examining the effect of premulti- plying or postmultiplying a given matrix by such matrices. We then define Gauss transformations and show how they can be used to introduce zeros into a vector. Definition 1.1 An m m permutation matrix is a matrix whose columns con- sist of a rearrangement of× the m unit vectors e(j), j = 1,...,m, in RI m, i.e., a rearrangement of the columns (or rows) of the m m identity matrix.

These matrices, which arise whenever optimization (maximum and minimum) problems are encountered, have countless applications throughout science and engineering. They also arise in statistics (for example, in factor analysis used in the social sciences) and in geometry (see Section 8.9). We will encounter them again in Chapter 10 when describing all inner products in Rn. Definition 8.5 Positive Definite Matrices A square matrix is called positive definite if it is symmetric and all its eigenvalues λ are positive, that is λ > 0. Because these matrices are symmetric, the principal axes theorem plays a central role in the theory. Theorem 8.3.1 If A is positive definite, then it is invertible and det A > 0. Proof.

  • Wronskian Solutions to the Kdv Equation Via B\" Acklund
    Wronskian solutions to the KdV equation via B¨acklund transformation Qi-fei Xuan∗, Mei-ying Ou, Da-jun Zhang† Department of Mathematics, Shanghai University, Shanghai 200444, P.R. China October 27, 2018 Abstract In the paper we discuss the B¨acklund transformation of the KdV equation between solitons and solitons, between negatons and negatons, between positons and positons, between rational solution and rational solution, and between complexitons and complexitons. We investigate the conditions that Wronskian entries satisfy for the bilinear B¨acklund transformation of the KdV equation. By choosing suitable Wronskian entries and the parameter in the bilinear B¨acklund transformation, we obtain transformations between many kinds of solutions. Keywords: the KdV equation, Wronskian solution, bilinear form, B¨acklund transformation 1 Introduction The Wronskian can be considered as a bridge connecting with many classical methods in soliton theory. This is not only because soliton solutions in Wronskian form can be obtained from the Darboux transformation[1], Sato theory[2, 3] and Wronskian technique[4]-[10], but also because the exponential polynomial for N-solitons derived from Hirota method[11, 12] and the matrix form given by the Inverse Scattering Transform[13, 14] can be transformed into a Wronskian by extracting some exponential factors. The special structure of a Wronskian contributes simple arXiv:0706.3487v1 [nlin.SI] 24 Jun 2007 forms of its derivatives, and this admits solution verification by direct substituting Wronskians into a bilinear soliton equation or a bilinear B¨acklund transformation(BT). This approach is re- ferred to as Wronskian technique[4]. In the approach a bilinear soliton equation is some algebraic identity provided that Wronskian entry vector satisfies some differential equation set which we call Wronskian condition.

  • Using Row Reduction to Calculate the Inverse and the Determinant of a Square Matrix
    Using row reduction to calculate the inverse and the determinant of a square matrix Notes for MATH 0290 Honors by Prof. Anna Vainchtein 1 Inverse of a square matrix An n × n square matrix A is called invertible if there exists a matrix X such that AX = XA = I, where I is the n × n identity matrix. If such matrix X exists, one can show that it is unique. We call it the inverse of A and denote it by A−1 = X, so that AA−1 = A−1A = I holds if A−1 exists, i.e. if A is invertible. Not all matrices are invertible. If A−1 does not exist, the matrix A is called singular or noninvertible. Note that if A is invertible, then the linear algebraic system Ax = b has a unique solution x = A−1b. Indeed, multiplying both sides of Ax = b on the left by A−1, we obtain A−1Ax = A−1b. But A−1A = I and Ix = x, so x = A−1b The converse is also true, so for a square matrix A, Ax = b has a unique solution if and only if A is invertible. 2 Calculating the inverse To compute A−1 if it exists, we need to find a matrix X such that AX = I (1) Linear algebra tells us that if such X exists, then XA = I holds as well, and so X = A−1. 1 Now observe that solving (1) is equivalent to solving the following linear systems: Ax1 = e1 Ax2 = e2 ... Axn = en, where xj, j = 1, .

  • 2.5 Elementary Row Operations and the Determinant
    2.5 Elementary Row Operations and the Determinant a b Recall: Let A be a 2 × 2 matrtix : A = 0 1. The determinant of A, denoted by det(A) @ c d A or jAj, is the number ad − bc. So for example if 2 4 A = 0 1 ; det(A) = 2(5) − 4(1) = 6: @ 1 5 A The matrix A is invertible if and only if det(A) 6= 0, and in this case the inverse of A is given by − 1 d −b A 1 = 0 1 : det(A) @ −c a A d −b The matrix 0 1 is called the adjoint or adjugate of A, denoted adj(A). @ −c a A Determinants are defined for all square matrices. They have various interpretations and applications in algebra, analysis and geometry. For every square matrix A, we have that A is invertible if and only if det(A) 6= 0. a b If A is a 2 × 2 matrix, A = 0 1, then j det(A)j is the volume of the parallelogram @ c d A having the vectors ~v1 = (a; b) and ~v2 = (c; d) as edges. Similarly if 0 a b c 1 A = B d e f C B C B C @ g h i A is a 3 × 3 matrix we have j det(A)j = Volume of P , where P is the parallelepiped in R3 having ~v1 = (a; b; c); ~v2 = (d; e; f) and ~v3 = (g; h; i) as edges. The determinant of an n × n matrix can be defined recursively in terms of determinants of (n − 1) × (n − 1) matrices (which in turn are defined in terms of (n − 2) × (n − 2) determinants, etc.).
