Chapter 8: Q13E (page 437)

Let S be a convex subset of \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) and suppose that \(f:{\mathbb{R}^n} \to {\mathbb{R}^m}\) is a linear transformation. Prove that the set \(f\left( S \right) = \left\{ {f\left( {\bf{x}} \right):{\bf{x}} \in S} \right\}\) is a convex subset of \({\mathbb{R}^m}\).

Short Answer

Expert verified

\(f\left( S \right)\) is a convex subset of \({\mathbb{R}^m}\).

Step by step solution

01

Find the value of the function for two different constants

Let, \({\bf{q}} \in f\left( S \right)\), then for \({\bf{r}},{\bf{s}} \in S\)

\(f\left( {\bf{r}} \right) = {\bf{p}}\) and \(f\left( {\bf{s}} \right) = {\bf{q}}\)

02

 Step 2: Check that \(f\left( S \right)\) is convex

Check whether the line segment \(y = \left( {1 - t} \right){\bf{p}} + t{\bf{q}}\) is in \(f\left( S \right)\):

\(\begin{aligned}{}y &= \left( {1 - t} \right){\bf{p}} + t{\bf{q}}\\ &= \left( {1 - t} \right)f\left( {\bf{r}} \right) + tf\left( {\bf{s}} \right)\\ &= f\left( {1 - t} \right){\bf{r}} + tf\left( {\bf{s}} \right)\\ &= f\left\{ {\left( {1 - t} \right){\bf{r}} + t{\bf{s}}} \right\}\end{aligned}\)

As S is a convex set, \(\left( {1 - t} \right){\bf{r}} + t{\bf{s}}\)is also in S, therefore

\(f\left\{ {\left( {1 - t} \right){\bf{r}} + t{\bf{s}}} \right\} \in f\left( S \right)\)

So, \(f\left( S \right)\) is aconvex subset of \({\mathbb{R}^m}\).

A quartic B茅zier curve is determined by five control points,

\({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{o}}}{\bf{,}}\,{\rm{ }}{{\bf{p}}_{\bf{1}}}\,{\bf{,}}{\rm{ }}{{\bf{p}}_{\bf{2}}}\,{\bf{,}}{\rm{ }}{{\bf{p}}_{\bf{3}}}\)and \({{\bf{p}}_4}\):

\({\bf{x}}\left( t \right) = {\left( {1 - t} \right)^4}{{\bf{p}}_0} + 4t{\left( {1 - t} \right)^3}{{\bf{p}}_1} + 6{t^2}{\left( {1 - t} \right)^2}{{\bf{p}}_2} + 4{t^3}\left( {1 - t} \right){{\bf{p}}_3} + {t^4}{{\bf{p}}_4}\)for \(0 \le t \le 1\)

Question: 25. Let \(p = \left( \begin{array}{l}1\\1\end{array} \right)\). Find a hyperplane \(\left( {f:d} \right)\) that strictly separates \(B\left( {0,3} \right)\) and \(B\left( {p,1} \right)\). (Hint: After finding \(f\), show that the point \(v = \left( {1 - .75} \right)0 + .75p\) is neither in \(B\left( {0,3} \right)\) nor in \(B\left( {p,1} \right)\)).

Question: In Exercises 15-20, write a formula for a linear functional f and specify a number d, so that \(\left( {f:d} \right)\) the hyperplane H described in the exercise.

Let H be the column space of the matrix \(B = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{1}}&{\bf{0}}\\{ - {\bf{4}}}&{\bf{2}}\\{\bf{7}}&{ - {\bf{6}}}\end{array}} \right)\). That is, \(H = {\bf{Col}}\,B\).(Hint: How is \({\bf{Col}}\,B\) related to Nul \({B^T}\)? See section 6.1)

a. If \({{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},...,{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _p}\) are in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) and if the set \(\left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1} - {{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2},{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _3} - {{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2},...,{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _p} - {{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2}} \right\}\) is linearly dependent, then \(\left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},...,{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _p}} \right\}\) is affinely dependent. (Read this carefully.)

b. If \({{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},...,{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _p}\) are in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) and if the set of homogeneous forms \(\left\{ {{{\overline {\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} }_1},...,{{\overline {\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} }_p}} \right\}\) in \({\mathbb{R}^{n + 1}}\) is linearly independent, then \(\left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},...,{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _p}} \right\}\) is affinely dependent.

c. A finite set of points \(\left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},...,{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _k}} \right\}\) is affinely dependent if there exist real numbers \({c_1},...,{c_k}\) , not all zero, such that \({c_1} + ... + {c_k} = 1\) and \({c_1}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1} + ... + {c_k}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _k} = 0\).

d. If \(S = \left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},...,{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _p}} \right\}\) is an affinely independent set in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) and if p in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) has a negative barycentric coordinate determined by S, then p is not in \({\mathop{\rm aff}\nolimits} S\).

e.

If \({{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2},{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _3},a,\) and \(b\) are in \({\mathbb{R}^3}\) and if ray \({\mathop{\rm a}\nolimits} + t{\mathop{\rm b}\nolimits} \) for \(t \ge 0\) intersects the triangle with vertices \({{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2},\) and \({{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _3}\) then the barycentric coordinates of the intersection points are all nonnegative.
