Inner Product Inner product • Inner product in R2. Angle between vectors. • Examples of inner product spaces. • Orthogonal vectors. • Orthogonal subspaces • Example of the four fundamental subspaces. • Orthogonal projections and orthonormal vectors 2 In R the inner product of x = (x1, x2), y = (y1, y2) is hx, yi = x1y1 + x2y2. Inner product is symmetric: hx, yi = hy, xi Question: Is inner product invariant under rotation? Proof: Consider rotation matrices Hence without loss of generality we can consider inner product of vectors x = (x1, x2), y = (y1, 0) Check:If x = y, then hx, yi = hx, xi = |x|2. Check Inner product of x, y is a product of length of y and projection of x on y Inner product of x, y is a product of length of x and projection of y on x. Why? 2 2 Projection on a vector a = (a1a2), a1 + a2 = 1 2 a1 a1a2 x1 Ax = ha, xia 2 = a1a2 a2 x2 Definition For a vector space V an inner product is an additional function h, i : V × V → R( or C) Remark: We concentrate now on real case, a completely analogous definition for complex case is put in brackets. h, i satisfies: 1. linearity hz, αx + βyi = αhz, xi + βhz, yi 2. Symmetry: hx, yi = hy, xi (conjugate symmetry for complex case hx, yi = hy, xi) 3. Positive definiteness: hx, xi ≥ 0, hx, xi = 0 if and only if x = 0 Question: Why property 3. makes sense in complex case? Example 1: Define an inner (scalar) product in Rn t X hx, yi = x y = xiyi. 1 Example 2: For a matrix A : Rn → Rn define a “inner product” of x y as hx, yiA = hx, Ayi Which matrices A can we pick so that hx, yiA is a true inner product? Example 3: For functions f(x) g(x) on [0, 1] define Z 1 hf, giL2 = f(x)g(x)dx. 0 Question: Which functions on [0, 1] belong to the above-determined (linear) inner product subspace? Note: Inner product is a new additional algebraic structure on a vector space. A vector space with an inner product is called an inner product space. Question: For a given inner product can define length of a vector? angle between two vectors? projection of one vector on another? Cauchy-Schwarz inequality: hx, yi ≤ |x||y|. Proof: The length of projection of x on y never exceeds |x|. Definition: Vectors x, y are orthogonal if hx, yi = 0 Reinterpret this definition using projections Question: Give an example of orthogonal functions on [0, 1] Definition: Two vector subspaces W ,U of a vector space V , i.e. W ⊂ V , U ⊂ V are othogonal if for any x ∈ U and y ∈ W hx, yi = 0. We denote it as U ⊥ W Question: Which vectors are contained both in W and U, if U ⊥ W ? Question: Give an example (if possible) of two orthogonal planes (two-dimensional subspaces) in R3 Fundamental theorem of Algebra Part II: In the real case R(At) ⊥ N (A), R(A) ⊥ N (At) Corollary: Every matrix transforms its row space into its column space. Question: How to determine a projection of a vector x on a vector subspace W ? Hint: start with case 1, suppose W =span{x}. Hint for general case is the following definition. Definition A set of vectors x1, x2, . , xk is said to be orthonormal if ( 1 if i = j, hxi, xji = δij = 0 if i 6= j. 2.

If the change of basis matrix SA!B = ~e4 ~e3 ~e2 ~e1 , then the elements of A are the same as the element of B, but in a different order. Solution note: True.

  • The Determinant Inner Product and the Heisenberg Product of Sym(2)
    INTERNATIONAL ELECTRONIC JOURNAL OF GEOMETRY VOLUME 14 NO. 1 PAGE 1–12 (2021) DOI: HTTPS://DOI.ORG/10.32323/IEJGEO.602178 The determinant inner product and the Heisenberg product of Sym(2) Mircea Crasmareanu (Dedicated to the memory of Prof. Dr. Aurel BEJANCU (1946 - 2020)Cihan Ozgur) ABSTRACT The aim of this work is to introduce and study the nondegenerate inner product < ·; · >det induced by the determinant map on the space Sym(2) of symmetric 2 × 2 real matrices. This symmetric bilinear form of index 2 defines a rational symmetric function on the pairs of rays in the plane and an associated function on the 2-torus can be expressed with the usual Hopf bundle projection 3 2 1 S ! S ( 2 ). Also, the product < ·; · >det is treated with complex numbers by using the Hopf invariant map of Sym(2) and this complex approach yields a Heisenberg product on Sym(2). Moreover, the quadratic equation of critical points for a rational Morse function of height type generates a cosymplectic structure on Sym(2) with the unitary matrix as associated Reeb vector and with the Reeb 1-form being half of the trace map.

  • Inner Product Spaces
    CHAPTER 6 Woman teaching geometry, from a fourteenth-century edition of Euclid’s geometry book. Inner Product Spaces In making the definition of a vector space, we generalized the linear structure (addition and scalar multiplication) of R2 and R3. We ignored other important features, such as the notions of length and angle. These ideas are embedded in the concept we now investigate, inner products. Our standing assumptions are as follows: 6.1 Notation F, V F denotes R or C. V denotes a vector space over F.

  • Inner Product Spaces Isaiah Lankham, Bruno Nachtergaele, Anne Schilling (March 2, 2007)
    MAT067 University of California, Davis Winter 2007 Inner Product Spaces Isaiah Lankham, Bruno Nachtergaele, Anne Schilling (March 2, 2007) The abstract definition of vector spaces only takes into account algebraic properties for the addition and scalar multiplication of vectors. For vectors in Rn, for example, we also have geometric intuition which involves the length of vectors or angles between vectors. In this section we discuss inner product spaces, which are vector spaces with an inner product defined on them, which allow us to introduce the notion of length (or norm) of vectors and concepts such as orthogonality. 1 Inner product In this section V is a finite-dimensional, nonzero vector space over F. Definition 1. An inner product on V is a map ·, · : V × V → F (u, v) →u, v with the following properties: 1. Linearity in first slot: u + v, w = u, w + v, w for all u, v, w ∈ V and au, v = au, v; 2. Positivity: v, v≥0 for all v ∈ V ; 3. Positive definiteness: v, v =0ifandonlyifv =0; 4. Conjugate symmetry: u, v = v, u for all u, v ∈ V . Remark 1. Recall that every real number x ∈ R equals its complex conjugate. Hence for real vector spaces the condition about conjugate symmetry becomes symmetry. Definition 2.

  • 5.2. Inner Product Spaces 1 5.2
    5.2. Inner Product Spaces 1 5.2. Inner Product Spaces Note. In this section, we introduce an inner product on a vector space. This will allow us to bring much of the geometry of Rn into the infinite dimensional setting. Definition 5.2.1. A vector space with complex scalars hV, Ci is an inner product space (also called a Euclidean Space or a Pre-Hilbert Space) if there is a function h·, ·i : V × V → C such that for all u, v, w ∈ V and a ∈ C we have: (a) hv, vi ∈ R and hv, vi ≥ 0 with hv, vi = 0 if and only if v = 0, (b) hu, v + wi = hu, vi + hu, wi, (c) hu, avi = ahu, vi, and (d) hu, vi = hv, ui where the overline represents the operation of complex conju- gation. The function h·, ·i is called an inner product. Note. Notice that properties (b), (c), and (d) of Definition 5.2.1 combine to imply that hu, av + bwi = ahu, vi + bhu, wi and hau + bv, wi = ahu, wi + bhu, wi for all relevant vectors and scalars. That is, h·, ·i is linear in the second positions and “conjugate-linear” in the first position. 5.2. Inner Product Spaces 2 Note. We can also define an inner product on a vector space with real scalars by requiring that h·, ·i : V × V → R and by replacing property (d) in Definition 5.2.1 with the requirement that the inner product is symmetric: hu, vi = hv, ui. Then Rn with the usual dot product is an example of a real inner product space.

  • Inner Product Spaces
    Part VI Inner Product Spaces 475 Section 27 The Dot Product in Rn Focus Questions By the end of this section, you should be able to give precise and thorough answers to the questions listed below. You may want to keep these questions in mind to focus your thoughts as you complete the section. What is the dot product of two vectors? Under what conditions is the dot • product defined? How do we find the angle between two nonzero vectors in Rn? • How does the dot product tell us if two vectors are orthogonal? • How do we define the length of a vector in any dimension and how can the • dot product be used to calculate the length? How do we define the distance between two vectors? • What is the orthogonal projection of a vector u in the direction of the vector • v and how do we find it? What is the orthogonal complement of a subspace W of Rn? • Application: Hidden Figures in Computer Graphics In video games, the speed at which a computer can render changing graphics views is vitally im- portant. To increase a computer’s ability to render a scene, programs often try to identify those parts of the images a viewer could see and those parts the viewer could not see. For example, in a scene involving buildings, the viewer could not see any images blocked by a solid building. In the mathematical world, this can be visualized by graphing surfaces. In Figure 27.1 we see a crude image of a house made up of small polygons (this is how programs generally represent surfaces).

  • 17. Inner Product Spaces Definition 17.1. Let V Be a Real Vector Space
    17. Inner product spaces Definition 17.1. Let V be a real vector space. An inner product on V is a function h ; i: V × V −! R; which is • symmetric, that is hu; vi = hv; ui: • bilinear, that is linear (in both factors): hλu, vi = λhu; vi; for all scalars λ and hu1 + u2; vi = hu1; vi + hu2; vi; for all vectors u1, u2 and v. • positive that is hv; vi ≥ 0: • non-degenerate that is if hu; vi = 0 for every v 2 V then u = 0. We say that V is a real inner product space. The associated quadratic form is the function Q: V −! R; defined by Q(v) = hv; vi: Example 17.2. Let A 2 Mn;n(R) be a real matrix. We can define a function n n h ; i: R × R −! R; by the rule hu; vi = utAv: The basic rules of matrix multiplication imply that this function is bi- linear. Note that the entries of A are given by t aij = eiAej = hei; eji: In particular, it is symmetric if and only if A is symmetric that is At = A. It is non-degenerate if and only if A is invertible, that is A has rank n. Positivity is a little harder to characterise. Perhaps the canonical example is to take A = In. In this case if t P u = (r1; r2; : : : ; rn) and v = (s1; s2; : : : ; sn) then u Inv = risi. Note 1 P 2 that if we take u = v then we get ri . The square root of this is the Euclidean distance.

Abstract In this paper we develop a generalization of Riesz representation theorem on generalized n-inner product spaces. We show that any al- ternating n-linear functional on a finitely generated standard general- ized n-inner product space can be represented by a finite number of n-tuples of vectors. The proof of the theorem utilizes an inner product on a quotient tensor product space induced by the generalized n-inner product.

Following this introduction, a number of results concerning the structure and properties of generalized n-inner product spaces can be found in literature (see [1], [2] and [6]). Gozali etal.

  • An Elementary Construction of the Geometric Algebra
    An elementary construction of the geometric algebra Alan Macdonald Department of Mathematics, Luther College Decorah IA, 52101 U.S.A. [email protected] March 30, 2016 Abstract We give a simple, elementary, direct, and motivated construction of the geometric algebra over Rn. Mathematics Subject Classification 2000. Primary 15A66. Keywords: Geometric Algebra, Clifford Algebra. 1. Introduction. We give here a new construction of the geometric al- gebra GA(n) over Rn with the standard inner product. (We then extend to an inner product of arbitrary signature.) A construction of GA(n) proves that a structure satisfying the axioms of GA(n) exists. Simply stating the axioms and proceeding, as is commonly done, is a practical approach. But then there is no guarantee that GA(n) exists, as the axioms might be inconsistent. A mathematically complete presentation must show that GA(n) exists. One can consider the construction given here as the latest step in the well known sequence of constructions of number systems based on the natural num- bers: the integers are equivalence classes of ordered pairs of natural numbers, the rational numbers are equivalence classes of ordered pairs of integers, the real numbers are Dedekind cuts or equivalence classes of Cauchy sequences of rational numbers, and the inner product space Rn consists of n-tuples of real numbers [3]. Each step in the sequence uses only the previously constructed system. (It is a stretch to call Rn a \number system", but it becomes one when the geometric algebra structure is imposed on it. Then we do not need to construct the standard complex numbers or quaternions, as they are embedded in GA(2) and GA(3), respectively.) My goal is to provide a construction of GA(n) suitable for someone with only an elementary knowledge of Rn.
