In Exercises 25 and 26, mark each statement True or False. Justify each answer.

26.

  1. There are symmetric matrices that are not orthogonally diagonizable.
  2. b. If \(B = PD{P^T}\), where \({P^T} = {P^{ - {\bf{1}}}}\) and D is a diagonal matrix, then B is a symmetric matrix.
  3. c. An orthogonal matrix is orthogonally diagonizable.
  4. d. The dimension of an eigenspace of a symmetric matrix is sometimes less than the multiplicity of the corresponding eigenvalue.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The statement is False.

(b) The statement is True.

(c) The statement is False.

(d) The statement isFalse.

Step by step solution

01

Find an answer for part (a)

According to theorem 2, a matrix of order \(n \times n\) is orthogonally diagonalizable when the matrix is symmetric.

So, the statement is False.

02

Find an answer for part (b)

As \({P^T} = {P^{ - 1}}\), then P is an orthogonal matrix, so by the equation,\(B = PD{P^T}\) it shows thatB is orthogonally diagonalizable, and thus,B is a symmetric matrix.

So, the statement is True.

03

Find an answer for part (c)

An orthogonal matrix can be symmetric, but not every orthogonal matrix, but not all orthogonal matrix is symmetric.

Thus, the statement is False.

04

Find an answer for part (d)

According to theorem 3(b), the dimension of eigenspace is less than or equal to the multiplicity corresponding to the eigenvalue. But it can be less than the value of multiplicity of the corresponding eigenvalue for a symmetric matrix.

Thus, the statement is False.

Let \(A = \left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}{\,\,\,2}&{ - 1}&{ - 1}\\{ - 1}&{\,\,\,2}&{ - 1}\\{ - 1}&{ - 1} &{\,\,\,2}\end{aligned}} \right)\),\({{\rm{v}}_1} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}{ - 1}\\{\,\,\,0}\\{\,\,1}\end{aligned}} \right)\) and and\({{\rm{v}}_2} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}{\,\,\,1}\\{\, - 1}\\{\,\,\,\,1}\end{aligned}} \right)\). Verify that\({{\rm{v}}_1}\), \({{\rm{v}}_2}\) an eigenvector of \(A\). Then orthogonally diagonalize \(A\).

Question: If A is \(m \times n\), then the matrix \(G = {A^T}A\) is called the Gram matrix of A. In this case, the entries of G are the inner products of the columns of A. (See Exercises 9 and 10).

9. Show that the Gram matrix of any matrix A is positive semidefinite, with the same rank as A. (See the Exercises in Section 6.5.)

Question: Let \({\bf{X}}\) denote a vector that varies over the columns of a \(p \times N\) matrix of observations, and let \(P\) be a \(p \times p\) orthogonal matrix. Show that the change of variable \({\bf{X}} = P{\bf{Y}}\) does not change the total variance of the data. (Hint: By Exercise 11, it suffices to show that \(tr\left( {{P^T}SP} \right) = tr\left( S \right)\). Use a property of the trace mentioned in Exercise 25 in Section 5.4.)

Orthogonally diagonalize the matrices in Exercises 13–22, giving an orthogonal matrix \(P\) and a diagonal matrix \(D\). To save you time, the eigenvalues in Exercises 17–22 are: (17) \( - {\bf{4}}\), 4, 7; (18) \( - {\bf{3}}\), \( - {\bf{6}}\), 9; (19) \( - {\bf{2}}\), 7; (20) \( - {\bf{3}}\), 15; (21) 1, 5, 9; (22) 3, 5.

20. \(\left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}5&8&{ - 4}\\8&5&{ - 4}\\{ - 4}&{ - 4}&{ - 1}\end{aligned}} \right)\)

Let A be the matrix of the quadratic form

\({\bf{9}}x_{\bf{1}}^{\bf{2}} + {\bf{7}}x_{\bf{2}}^{\bf{2}} + {\bf{11}}x_{\bf{3}}^{\bf{2}} - {\bf{8}}{x_{\bf{1}}}{x_{\bf{2}}} + {\bf{8}}{x_{\bf{1}}}{x_{\bf{3}}}\)

It can be shown that the eigenvalues of A are 3,9, and 15. Find an orthogonal matrix P such that the change of variable \({\bf{x}} = P{\bf{y}}\) transforms \({{\bf{x}}^T}A{\bf{x}}\) into a quadratic form which no cross-product term. Give P and the new quadratic form.
