Chapter 7: Q33E (page 395)
Construct a spectral decomposition of A from Example 2.
Short Answer
The spectral decomposition of A is \(\left[ {\begin{aligned}{{}{}}6&{ - 2}&{ - 1}\\{ - 2}&6&{ - 1}\\{ - 1}&{ - 1}&5\end{aligned}} \right]\).

Question: 11. Given multivariate data \({X_1},................,{X_N}\) (in \({\mathbb{R}^p}\)) in mean deviation form, let \(P\) be a \(p \times p\) matrix, and define \({Y_k} = {P^T}{X_k}{\rm{ for }}k = 1,......,N\).
(M) Orhtogonally diagonalize the matrices in Exercises 37-40. To practice the methods of this section, do not use an eigenvector routine from your matrix program. Instead, use the program to find the eigenvalues, and for each eigenvalue \(\lambda \), find an orthogonal basis for \({\bf{Nul}}\left( {A - \lambda I} \right)\), as in Examples 2 and 3.
39. \(\left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}{.{\bf{31}}}&{.{\bf{58}}}&{.{\bf{08}}}&{.{\bf{44}}}\\{.{\bf{58}}}&{ - .{\bf{56}}}&{.{\bf{44}}}&{ - .{\bf{58}}}\\{.{\bf{08}}}&{.{\bf{44}}}&{.{\bf{19}}}&{ - .{\bf{08}}}\\{ - .{\bf{44}}}&{ - .{\bf{58}}}&{ - .{\bf{08}}}&{.{\bf{31}}}\end{aligned}} \right)\)
Determine which of the matrices in Exercises 1–6 are symmetric.
\(\left( {\begin{array}{{}{}}1&2&2&1\\2&2&2&1\\2&2&1&2\end{array}} \right)\)
Compute the quadratic form \({x^T}Ax\), when \(A = \left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}3&2&0\\2&2&1\\0&1&0\end{aligned}} \right)\) and
a. \(x = \left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}{{x_1}}\\{{x_2}}\\{{x_3}}\end{aligned}} \right)\)
b. \(x = \left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}{ - 2}\\{ - 1}\\5\end{aligned}} \right)\)
c. \(x = \left( {\begin{aligned}{{}}{\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}}\\{\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}}\\{\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}}\end{aligned}} \right)\)
Classify the quadratic forms in Exercises 9–18. Then make a change of variable, \({\bf{x}} = P{\bf{y}}\), that transforms the quadratic form into one with no cross-product term. Write the new quadratic form. Construct \(P\) using the methods of Section 7.1.
