Suppose that \(A^{-1}\) and the \(L U\) factorization of \(A\) have already been determined. How many scalar additions and multiplications are necessary to compute \(A^{-1} \mathbf{b} ?\) Compare this number with the number of operations required to solve \(L U \mathbf{x}=\mathbf{b}\) using \(\mathrm{Al}\) gorithm \(7.2 .2 .\) Suppose that we have a number of systems to solve with the same coefficient matrix \(A .\) Is it worthwhile to compute \(A^{-1} ?\) Explain.
Let \(A\) be a symmetric \(n \times n\) matrix with eigenvalues \(\lambda_{1}, \ldots, \lambda_{n}\) and orthonormal eigenvectors \(\mathbf{u}_{1}, \ldots, \mathbf{u}_{n} .\) Let \(\mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{R}^{n}\) and let \(c_{i}=\mathbf{u}_{i}^{T} \mathbf{x}\) for \(i=1,2, \ldots, n .\) Show that (a) \(\|A \mathbf{x}\|_{2}^{2}=\sum_{i=1}^{n}\left(\lambda_{i} c_{i}\right)^{2}\) (b) If \(\mathbf{x} \neq \mathbf{0},\) then \\[ \min _{1 \leq i \leq n}\left|\lambda_{i}\right| \leq \frac{\|A \mathbf{x}\|_{2}}{\|\mathbf{x}\|_{2}} \leq \max _{1 \leq i \leq n}\left|\lambda_{i}\right| \\] (c) \(\|A\|_{2}=\max _{1 \leq i \leq n}\left|\lambda_{i}\right|\)
Let \\[ A=\left(\begin{array}{rrrr} 1 & -1 & -1 & -1 \\ 0 & 1 & -1 & -1 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array}\right), \quad \mathbf{b}=\left(\begin{array}{c} 5.00 \\ 1.02 \\ 1.04 \\ 1.10 \end{array}\right) \\] An approximate solution of \(A \mathbf{x}=\mathbf{b}\) is calculated by rounding the entries of \(\mathbf{b}\) to the nearest integer and then solving the rounded system with integer arithmetic. The calculated solution is \(\mathbf{x}^{\prime}=\) \((12,4,2,1)^{T}\). Let \(\mathbf{r}\) denote the residual vector. (a) Determine the values of \(\|\mathbf{r}\|_{\infty}\) and \(\operatorname{cond}_{\infty}(A)\) (b) Use your answer to part (a) to find an upper bound for the relative error in the solution. (c) Compute the exact solution \(\mathbf{x}\) and determine the relative error \(\frac{\left\|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}^{\prime}\right\|_{\infty}}{\|\mathbf{x}\|_{\infty}}\)
Let \(A\) be an \(n \times n\) matrix with distinct real eigenvalues \(\lambda_{1}, \lambda_{2}, \ldots, \lambda_{n} .\) Let \(\lambda\) be a scalar that is not an eigenvalue of \(A\) and let \(B=(A-\lambda I)^{-1}\). Show that (a) the scalars \(\mu_{j}=1 /\left(\lambda_{j}-\lambda\right), j=1, \ldots, n\) are the eigenvalues of \(B\) (b) if \(\mathbf{x}_{j}\) is an eigenvector of \(B\) belonging to \(\mu_{j}\) then \(\mathbf{x}_{j}\) is an eigenvector of \(A\) belonging to \(\lambda_{j}\) (c) if the power method is applied to \(B\), then the sequence of vectors will converge to an eigenvector of \(A\) belonging to the eigenvalue that is closest to \(\lambda\). [The convergence will be rapid if \(\lambda\) is much closer to one \(\lambda_{i}\) than to any of the others. This method of computing eigenvectors by using powers of \((A-\lambda I)^{-1}\) is called the inverse power method.]
Let \(A=\mathbf{w y}^{T},\) where \(\mathbf{w} \in \mathbb{R}^{m}\) and \(\mathbf{y} \in \mathbb{R}^{n} .\) Show that (a) \(\frac{\|A \mathbf{x}\|_{2}}{\|\mathbf{x}\|_{2}} \leq\|\mathbf{y}\|_{2}\|\mathbf{w}\|_{2}\) for all \(\mathbf{x} \neq \mathbf{0}\) in \(\mathbb{R}^{n}\) (b) \(\|A\|_{2}=\|\mathbf{y}\|_{2}\|\mathbf{w}\|_{2}\)
