Question 2: Given points \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}0\\{ - 1}\end{array}} \right),{\rm{ }}{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}2\\1\end{array}} \right),\) and \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1\\2\end{array}} \right)\) in \({\mathbb{R}^{\bf{2}}}\), let \(S = {\mathop{\rm conv}\nolimits} \left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1},{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2},{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}} \right\}\). For each linear functional \(f\), find the maximum value \(m\) of \(f\), find the maximum value \(m\) of \(f\) on the set \(S\), and find all points x in \(S\) at which \(f\left( {\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} \right) = m\).

a. \(f\left( {{x_1},{x_2}} \right) = {x_1} + {x_2}\)

b. \(f\left( {{x_1},{x_2}} \right) = {x_1} - {x_2}\)

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. On the set conv\(\left\{ {{{\bf{p}}_2},{{\bf{p}}_3}} \right\}\) is the point in \(S\) at \(m = 3\).
  2. On the set \({\rm{conv}}\left\{ {{{\bf{p}}_1},{{\bf{p}}_2}} \right\}\) is the point in \(S\) at \(m = 1\).
  3. \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}\) is the point in \(S\) at \(m = 0\).

Step by step solution

01

The maximum and minimum is attained at an extreme point

Theorem 16states that consider f as a linear functional defined on a nonempty compact convex set \(S\).

Then, there are extreme points \(\widehat {\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \) and \(\widehat {\mathop{\rm w}\nolimits} \) of \(S\) such that \(f\left( {\widehat {\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} } \right) = \mathop {\max }\limits_{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \in S} f\left( {\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \right)\) and \(f\left( {\widehat {\mathop{\rm w}\nolimits} } \right) = \mathop {\min }\limits_{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \in S} f\left( {\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \right)\).

02

Determine the maximum value \(m\) of \(f\)

According to theorem 16, the maximum value is attained at one of the extreme points of \(S\).

Evaluate \(f\) at the extreme point and select the largest value to find \(m\) as shown below:

  1. \({f_1}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}} \right) = - 1\), \({f_1}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}} \right) = 3\), \({f_1}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}} \right) = 3\), therefore, \({m_1} = 3\). Graph the line \({f_1}\left( {{x_1},{x_2}} \right) = {m_1}\) which means that \({x_1} + {x_2} = 3\), and \({\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} = {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}\) is the only point in \(S\) at which \({f_1}\left( {\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} \right) = 3\).


b. \({f_2}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}} \right) = 1\), \({f_2}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}} \right) = 1\), \({f_2}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}} \right) = - 1\), therefore, \({m_2} = 1\). Graph the line \({f_2}\left( {{x_1},{x_2}} \right) = {m_2}\) which means that \({x_1} - {x_2} = 1\), and \({\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} = {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}\) is the only point in \(S\) at which \({f_2}\left( {\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} \right) = 1\).


c. \({f_3}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}} \right) = - 1\), \({f_3}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}} \right) = - 3\), \({f_3}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}} \right) = 0\), therefore, \({m_3} = 0\). Graph the line \({f_3}\left( {{x_1},{x_2}} \right) = {m_3}\) which means that \( - 2{x_1} + {x_2} = 0\), and \({\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} = {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}\) is the only point in \(S\) at which \({f_3}\left( {\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} \right) = 0\).

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 \({c_1}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1} + ... + {c_k}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _k} = 0\).
