Vector Transformation 8/30/2013 Vector transformation A more rigorous definition of vector starts with the concept that the space is (a) isotopic, so no So far we have used two different ways to describe 8/29/2013 preferred direction, (b) homogeneous, so no 8/29/2013 vector; (a) geometry approach---vector as an arrow, preferred location. A physical quantity such as (b) algebra approach--- vector as components of Rotational matrix displacement or force, should be independent of Rotational matrix Cartesian coordinates. However both approaches the coordinate system we choose. are not very satisfactory and are rather naïve. Let Here we follow the approach of a mathematician and define a vector as a set of three components that transforms in the same manner as a displacement when we change the coordinates. As always, the displacement vector is the model for the behavior of all vectors. 1 2 Rotation about z-axis, using right-hand rule (Counter clockwise). The relationship between , and , can be expressed below: (2) 8/29/2013 8/29/2013 This is rotation about x-axis, again we use right-hand rule, so the y- axis is rotated toward x-axis. The above equations can be combined into one matrix notation; Rotational matrix Rotational matrix For the rotation about y-axis, using right-hand rule, we have: (1) This is a rotation about the z-axis. In the text book, it Now we see that the matrix is a lot different from the previous is a rotation about the x-axis. For rotation about x ones. In order to make the rotation matrix the same as in x and z- axis is given on the next page: axis, we define the rotation about y-axis as clockwise, so the 3 rotational matrix for the y-axis will have similar form as other two 4 axes. For rotation about y-axis, clockwise, the rotation matrix is given Example 1 We want to rotate the z-axis through an angle of 8/29/2013 8/29/2013 φ such that the axis is coincided with line (3) Rotational matrix Rotational matrix Step #1 Now for the most general case, we can rotates the coordinate by Rotates about the z-axis by an angle of an arbitrary angle through an arbitrary direction, and the rotation matrix is given below, however the determination of the matrix elements will be a challenging task, since we only know (4) how to do it through the above three equations (1), (2) and (3) Step #2 Rotates about y’ axis, counterclockwise by an angle of θ (5) 5 6 1 8/30/2013 Re-arrange eq.

  • MATH 2030: MATRICES Introduction to Linear Transformations We Have
    MATH 2030: MATRICES Introduction to Linear Transformations We have seen that we may describe matrices as symbol with simple algebraic properties like matrix multiplication, addition and scalar addition. In the particular case of matrix-vector multiplication, i.e., Ax = b where A is an m × n matrix and x; b are n×1 matrices (column vectors) we may represent this as a transformation on the space of column vectors, that is a function F (x) = b , where x is the independent variable and b the dependent variable. In this section we will give a more rigorous description of this idea and provide examples of such matrix transformations, which will lead to the idea of a linear transformation. To begin we look at a matrix-vector multiplication to give an idea of what sort of functions we are working with 21 0 3 1 A = 2 −1 ; v = : 4 5 −1 3 4 then matrix-vector multiplication yields 2 1 3 Av = 4 3 5 −1 We have taken a 2 × 1 matrix and produced a 3 × 1 matrix. More generally for any x we may describe this transformation as a matrix equation y 21 0 3 2 x 3 x 2 −1 = 2x − y : 4 5 y 4 5 3 4 3x + 4y From this product we have found a formula describing how A transforms an arbi- 2 3 trary vector in R into a new vector in R . Expressing this as a transformation TA we have 2 x 3 x T = 2x − y : A y 4 5 3x + 4y From this example we can define some helpful terminology.

  • Vectors, Matrices and Coordinate Transformations
    S. Widnall 16.07 Dynamics Fall 2009 Lecture notes based on J. Peraire Version 2.0 Lecture L3 - Vectors, Matrices and Coordinate Transformations By using vectors and defining appropriate operations between them, physical laws can often be written in a simple form. Since we will making extensive use of vectors in Dynamics, we will summarize some of their important properties. Vectors For our purposes we will think of a vector as a mathematical representation of a physical entity which has both magnitude and direction in a 3D space. Examples of physical vectors are forces, moments, and velocities. Geometrically, a vector can be represented as arrows. The length of the arrow represents its magnitude. Unless indicated otherwise, we shall assume that parallel translation does not change a vector, and we shall call the vectors satisfying this property, free vectors. Thus, two vectors are equal if and only if they are parallel, point in the same direction, and have equal length. Vectors are usually typed in boldface and scalar quantities appear in lightface italic type, e.g. the vector quantity A has magnitude, or modulus, A = |A|. In handwritten text, vectors are often expressed using the −→ arrow, or underbar notation, e.g. A , A. Vector Algebra Here, we introduce a few useful operations which are defined for free vectors. Multiplication by a scalar If we multiply a vector A by a scalar α, the result is a vector B = αA, which has magnitude B = |α|A. The vector B, is parallel to A and points in the same direction if α > 0.

(December 2004) Radhika Gupta, B.E., Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay; M.S., Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Vivek Sarin Elliptic partial differential equations that are used to model physical phenomena give rise to large sparse linear systems. Such systems can be symmetric positive definite and can be solved by the preconditioned conjugate gradients method. In this thesis, we develop support graph preconditioners for symmetric positive definite matrices that arise from the finite element discretization of elliptic partial differential equations. An object oriented code is developed for the construction, integration and application of these preconditioners. Experimental results show that the advantages of support graph preconditioners are retained in the proposed extension to the finite element matrices. iv To my parents v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express sincere thanks to my advisor, Dr.

  • Theory of Angular Momentum and Spin
    Chapter 5 Theory of Angular Momentum and Spin Rotational symmetry transformations, the group SO(3) of the associated rotation matrices and the 1 corresponding transformation matrices of spin{ 2 states forming the group SU(2) occupy a very important position in physics. The reason is that these transformations and groups are closely tied to the properties of elementary particles, the building blocks of matter, but also to the properties of composite systems. Examples of the latter with particularly simple transformation properties are closed shell atoms, e.g., helium, neon, argon, the magic number nuclei like carbon, or the proton and the neutron made up of three quarks, all composite systems which appear spherical as far as their charge distribution is concerned. In this section we want to investigate how elementary and composite systems are described. To develop a systematic description of rotational properties of composite quantum systems the consideration of rotational transformations is the best starting point. As an illustration we will consider first rotational transformations acting on vectors ~r in 3-dimensional space, i.e., ~r R3, 2 we will then consider transformations of wavefunctions (~r) of single particles in R3, and finally N transformations of products of wavefunctions like j(~rj) which represent a system of N (spin- Qj=1 zero) particles in R3. We will also review below the well-known fact that spin states under rotations behave essentially identical to angular momentum states, i.e., we will find that the algebraic properties of operators governing spatial and spin rotation are identical and that the results derived for products of angular momentum states can be applied to products of spin states or a combination of angular momentum and spin states.

  • 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.

  • Rotation Matrix - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia Page 1 of 22
    Rotation matrix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 22 Rotation matrix From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In linear algebra, a rotation matrix is a matrix that is used to perform a rotation in Euclidean space. For example the matrix rotates points in the xy -Cartesian plane counterclockwise through an angle θ about the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system. To perform the rotation, the position of each point must be represented by a column vector v, containing the coordinates of the point. A rotated vector is obtained by using the matrix multiplication Rv (see below for details). In two and three dimensions, rotation matrices are among the simplest algebraic descriptions of rotations, and are used extensively for computations in geometry, physics, and computer graphics. Though most applications involve rotations in two or three dimensions, rotation matrices can be defined for n-dimensional space. Rotation matrices are always square, with real entries. Algebraically, a rotation matrix in n-dimensions is a n × n special orthogonal matrix, i.e. an orthogonal matrix whose determinant is 1: . The set of all rotation matrices forms a group, known as the rotation group or the special orthogonal group. It is a subset of the orthogonal group, which includes reflections and consists of all orthogonal matrices with determinant 1 or -1, and of the special linear group, which includes all volume-preserving transformations and consists of matrices with determinant 1.

  • Unipotent Flows and Applications
    Clay Mathematics Proceedings Volume 10, 2010 Unipotent Flows and Applications Alex Eskin 1. General introduction 1.1. Values of indefinite quadratic forms at integral points. The Op- penheim Conjecture. Let X Q(x1; : : : ; xn) = aijxixj 1≤i≤j≤n be a quadratic form in n variables. We always assume that Q is indefinite so that (so that there exists p with 1 ≤ p < n so that after a linear change of variables, Q can be expresses as: Xp Xn ∗ 2 − 2 Qp(y1; : : : ; yn) = yi yi i=1 i=p+1 We should think of the coefficients aij of Q as real numbers (not necessarily rational or integer). One can still ask what will happen if one substitutes integers for the xi. It is easy to see that if Q is a multiple of a form with rational coefficients, then the set of values Q(Zn) is a discrete subset of R. Much deeper is the following conjecture: Conjecture 1.1 (Oppenheim, 1929). Suppose Q is not proportional to a ra- tional form and n ≥ 5. Then Q(Zn) is dense in the real line. This conjecture was extended by Davenport to n ≥ 3. Theorem 1.2 (Margulis, 1986). The Oppenheim Conjecture is true as long as n ≥ 3. Thus, if n ≥ 3 and Q is not proportional to a rational form, then Q(Zn) is dense in R. This theorem is a triumph of ergodic theory. Before Margulis, the Oppenheim Conjecture was attacked by analytic number theory methods. (In particular it was known for n ≥ 21, and for diagonal forms with n ≥ 5).

  • Linear Operators Hsiu-Hau Lin [email protected] (Mar 25, 2010)
    Linear Operators Hsiu-Hau Lin [email protected] (Mar 25, 2010) The notes cover linear operators and discuss linear independence of func- tions (Boas 3.7-3.8). • Linear operators An operator maps one thing into another. For instance, the ordinary func- tions are operators mapping numbers to numbers. A linear operator satisfies the properties, O(A + B) = O(A) + O(B);O(kA) = kO(A); (1) where k is a number. As we learned before, a matrix maps one vector into another. One also notices that M(r1 + r2) = Mr1 + Mr2;M(kr) = kMr: Thus, matrices are linear operators. • Orthogonal matrix The length of a vector remains invariant under rotations, ! ! x0 x x0 y0 = x y M T M : y0 y The constraint can be elegantly written down as a matrix equation, M T M = MM T = 1: (2) In other words, M T = M −1. For matrices satisfy the above constraint, they are called orthogonal matrices. Note that, for orthogonal matrices, computing inverse is as simple as taking transpose { an extremely helpful property for calculations. From the product theorem for the determinant, we immediately come to the conclusion det M = ±1. In two dimensions, any 2 × 2 orthogonal matrix with determinant 1 corresponds to a rotation, while any 2 × 2 orthogonal HedgeHog's notes (March 24, 2010) 2 matrix with determinant −1 corresponds to a reflection about a line. Let's come back to our good old friend { the rotation matrix, cos θ − sin θ ! cos θ sin θ ! R(θ) = ;RT = : (3) sin θ cos θ − sin θ cos θ It is straightforward to check that RT R = RRT = 1.

  • DRS: Diagonal Dominant Reduction for Lattice-Based Signature Version 2
    DRS: Diagonal dominant Reduction for lattice-based Signature Version 2 Thomas PLANTARD, Arnaud SIPASSEUTH, Cédric DUMONDELLE, Willy SUSILO Institute of Cybersecurity and Cryptology School of Computing and Information Technology University of Wollongong Australia 1 Background Denition 1. We call lattice a discrete subgroup of Rn. We say a lattice is an integer lattice when it is a subgroup of Zn. A basis of the lattice is a basis as a Z − module. In our work we only consider full-rank integer lattices (unless specied otherwise), i.e such that their basis can be represented by a n × n non-singular integer matrix. It is important to note that just like in classical linear algebra, a lattice has an innity of basis. In fact, if B is a basis of L, then so is UB for any unimodular matrix U (U can be seen as the set of linear operations over Zn on the rows of B that do not aect the determinant). Denition 2 (Minima). We note λi(L) the i−th minimum of a lattice L. It is the radius of the smallest zero-centered ball containing at least i linearly independant elements of L. λi+1(L) Denition 3 (Lattice gap). We note δi(L) the ratio and call that a lattice gap. When mentioned λi(L) without index and called "the" gap, the index is implied to be i = 1. Denition 4. We say a lattice is a diagonally dominant type lattice (of dimension n) if it admits a basis B of the form a diagonal dominant matrix as in [1], i.e Pn 8i 2 [1; n];Bi;i ≥ j=1;i6=j jBi;jj We can also see a diagonally dominant matrix B as a sum B = D + R where D is diagonal and Di;i > kRik1.
