Let \(S = \left\{ {{{\bf{v}}_1},\,{{\bf{v}}_2},\,{{\bf{v}}_3},\,{{\bf{v}}_4}} \right\}\) be an affinely independent set. Consider the points \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{1}}},.....,{{\bf{p}}_{\bf{5}}}\) whose barycentric coordinates with respect to S are given by \(\left( {{\bf{2}},{\bf{0}},{\bf{0}}, - {\bf{1}}} \right)\), \(\left( {{\bf{0}},\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{2}}},\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{4}}},\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{4}}}} \right)\), \(\left( {\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{2}}},{\bf{0}},\frac{{\bf{3}}}{{\bf{2}}}, - {\bf{1}}} \right)\), \(\left( {\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{3}}},\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{4}}},\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{4}}},\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{6}}}} \right)\), and \(\left( {\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{\bf{3}}},{\bf{0}},\frac{{\bf{2}}}{{\bf{3}}},{\bf{0}}} \right)\), respectively. Determine whether each of \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{1}}},.....,{{\bf{p}}_{\bf{5}}}\) is inside,outside, or on the surface of conv S, a tetrahedron. Are any of these points on an edge of conv S?

Short Answer

Expert verified

\({{\bf{p}}_1}\) and \({{\bf{p}}_3}\) are outside the tetrahedron \({\rm{conv}}\,\,S\). \({{\bf{p}}_2}\) is on the face with vertices \({{\bf{v}}_2}\), \({{\bf{v}}_3}\), and \({{\bf{v}}_4}\). \({{\bf{p}}_4}\) is inside \({\rm{conv}}\,S\). \({{\bf{p}}_5}\) is on the edge between \({{\bf{v}}_1}\) and \({{\bf{v}}_3}\).

Step by step solution

01

Check for the first coordinate

The barycentric coordinatesof \({{\bf{p}}_1}\) and \({{\bf{p}}_3}\)has negative numbers, so \({{\bf{p}}_1}\) and \({{\bf{p}}_3}\) are outside the tetrahedron convex S.

02

Check for the second coordinate

For point \({{\bf{p}}_2}\), the first number is zero. Hence, \({{\bf{p}}_2}\) is on the face containing \({{\bf{v}}_2}\), \({{\bf{v}}_3}\), and \({{\bf{v}}_4}\).

03

Check for the third coordinate

The barycentric coordinates of the point \({{\bf{p}}_4}\) are positive, hence \({{\bf{p}}_4}\) is inside convex S.

04

Check for the fourth coordinate

Two barycentric coordinates in \({{\bf{p}}_5}\) are positive, and two of them are zero. Hence, \({{\bf{p}}_5}\) is on the edge of \({{\bf{v}}_1}\) and \({{\bf{v}}_3}\).

Question: Suppose that the solutions of an equation \(A{\bf{x}} = {\bf{b}}\) are all of the form \({\bf{x}} = {x_{\bf{3}}}{\bf{u}} + {\bf{p}}\), where \({\bf{u}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{5}}\\{\bf{1}}\\{ - {\bf{2}}}\end{array}} \right)\) and \({\bf{p}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{1}}\\{ - {\bf{3}}}\\{\bf{4}}\end{array}} \right)\).

Question: 24. Repeat Exercise 23 for \({v_1} = \left( \begin{array}{l}1\\2\end{array} \right)\), \({v_2} = \left( \begin{array}{l}5\\1\end{array} \right)\), \({v_3} = \left( \begin{array}{l}4\\4\end{array} \right)\) and \(p = \left( \begin{array}{l}2\\3\end{array} \right)\).

Question: Let \({{\bf{v}}_{\bf{1}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{1}}\\{\bf{0}}\\{\bf{3}}\\{\bf{0}}\end{array}} \right)\), \({{\bf{v}}_{\bf{2}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{2}}\\{ - {\bf{1}}}\\{\bf{0}}\\{\bf{4}}\end{array}} \right)\), and \({{\bf{v}}_{\bf{2}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{ - {\bf{1}}}\\{\bf{2}}\\{\bf{1}}\\{\bf{1}}\end{array}} \right)\)

\({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{1}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{5}}\\{ - {\bf{3}}}\\{\bf{5}}\\{\bf{3}}\end{array}} \right)\) b. \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{2}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{ - {\bf{9}}}\\{{\bf{10}}}\\{\bf{9}}\\{ - {\bf{13}}}\end{array}} \right)\) c. \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{3}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{4}}\\{\bf{2}}\\{\bf{8}}\\{\bf{5}}\end{array}} \right)\)

and \(S = \left\{ {{{\bf{v}}_1},\,\,{{\bf{v}}_2},\,{{\bf{v}}_3}} \right\}\). It can be shown that S is linearly independent.

a. Is \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{1}}}\) is span S? Is \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{1}}}\) is \({\bf{aff}}\,S\)?

b. Is \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{2}}}\) is span S? Is \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{2}}}\) is \({\bf{aff}}\,S\)?

c. Is \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{3}}}\) is span S? Is \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{3}}}\) is \({\bf{aff}}\,S\)?
