19 polynomial and Definition A polynomial of degree n is a function with this form n p(a) = c k A k, c K, A M n n (K) k=0 Solving General,

20 Interesting properties of the polynomial and The coefficients behave like the coefficients for regular p(x) + q(x) has the same coefficients as p(a) + q(a) p(x)q(x) has the same coefficients as p(a)q(a) p(s 1 AS) = S 1 p(a)s A p(a 11 ) A p p(a 22 ) A kk p(a kk ) where all A ii are quadratic blocks. Solving General,

21 The Cayley-Hamilton theorem and Theorem (Cayley-Hamilton theorem) Let p A (λ) = det(λi A) then p A (A) = 0 Solving General,

22 The adjugate formula and Theorem (The adjugate formula) For any square A the following equality holds A adj(a) = adj(a)a = det(a)i (5) where adj(a) is a square such that adj(a) ki = A ki where A ki is the ki-cofactor of A Proof. See compendium page Solving General,

23 Sketch of proof for Cayley-Hamilton Proof. and p A (λ)i = (λi A)B n 1 B = λ k B k k=0 n 1 (λi A)B = (λi A) λ k B k = = λ n B n 1 + λ n 1 (B n 2 AB n 1 ) λ(b 0 AB 1 ) + ( AB 0 ) = k=0 = λ n I + λ n 1 a n 1 I a 1 λ + a 0 = p A (λ)i Solving General,

24 Sketch of proof for Cayley-Hamilton Proof. If this expression holds for all λ then the following three conditions must be fulfilled a k I = B k 1 AB k for 1 k n 1 (6) I = B n 1 (7) a 0 I = AB 0 (8) Next consider the polynomial p A (A) p A (A) = A n + A n 1 a n Aa 1 + Ia 0 Combining this with condition (6)-(8) results in and Solving General, p A (A) = A n + A n 1 (B n 2 AB n 1 ) A(B 0 AB 1 ) + ( AB 0 ) = = A n (I B n 1 ) +A n 1 (B } {{ } n 2 B n 2 ) A (B } {{ } 0 B 0 ) = 0 } {{ } =0 =0 =0

25 Companion and Definition Let p(x) = x n + a n 1 x n a 1 x + a 0 then C(p) = a 0 a 1 a 2... a n 2 a n 1 Solving General,

26 State variable representation Consider the linear equation (with constant scalar coefficients) with y = y(t) y (n) + a n 1 y (n 1) a 1 y + a 0 = f Create the state variable vector y y x =. y n 2 y n 1 and Solving General,

28 State variable representation and Note that det(λi C(p)) = p(λ) which means that for any λ Sp(C(p)) p(λ) = 0. Can be a convenient way of finding roots to a polynomial which can then be used to solve a equation. Solving General,

29 First order and du dt = AU, U(0) = I, U, A M n n How do you solve this equation? If A had not been a then the answer would be U = e At, what is the corresponding answer? Solving General,

30 and Instead of shoving matrices into the definition and hoping they fit we can construct that have some desirable property of a normal function of numbers. The exponential function e at has three nice properties d dt (eat ) = ae at = e at a (e at ) 1 = e at e a e b = e a+b = e b+a = e b e a Solving General,

31 and Theorem The following is true for the exponential d a) dt eta = Ae ta = e ta A b) (e ta ) 1 = e ta c) e A+B = e A e B = e B e A if AB = BA Solving General,

32 Consider what happens to a general polynomial of At when we take the first time derivative p(at) = n a k (At) k d dt (p(at)) = k=0 n a k ka k t k 1 = k=1 n 1 = A a l+1 (l + 1)A l t l l=0 The last equality is achieved by simply taking l = k 1. Compare this to Ap(At) = A n a l A l t l l=0 and Solving General,

33 and If the polynomial coefficients are chosen such that a l+1 (l + 1) = a l these expressions would be identical expect for the final term. Let us choose the correct coefficients a l+1 (l + 1) = a l a l = 1 l! and simply avoid the problem of the last term not matching up by making the polynomial have infinite degree. Solving General,

34 and Definition The polynomial function is defined as e At = k=0 t k k! Ak, A M n n Solving General,

35 Calculating the exponential Calculating the exponential e A is generally difficult. Some classes of matrices are simple, for example diagonal matrices e d e D 0 e d = e dnn This means the exponential of a diagonalizable can be calculated like this e A = S 1 e D S and Solving General, Prove this as an exercise. Hint: What is the Taylor series (power series) for e at?

36 1st order equation and Theorem The exponential e xa is the solution to the initial value problem du dx = AU U(0) = I Proof. From the construction of e xa we already know that if fulfills the equation. Checking that the initial condition is fulfilled can be done simply by setting x = 0 in the definition. Solving General,

37 and Can we systematically create a function for every function of numbers? Solving General,

38 General and Definition ( function via Hermite interpolation) If a function f (λ) is defined on all λ that are eigenvalues of a square A then the function f (A) is defined as f (A) = h s i 1 i=1 k=0 f (k) (λ i ) φ ik (A) k! where φ ik are the Hermite interpolation (defined below), λ i are the different eigenvalues and s i is the multiplicity of each eigenvalue. Solving General,

39 General and Definition (Hermite interpolation ) Let lambda i, 1 i n be complex numbers and s i, 1 i n, be positive integers. Let s be the sum of all s i. The Hermitian interpolation are a set of with degree lower than s that fulfills the conditions φ (l) ik (λ j) = l! { 0 if i j or k l 1 if i = j and k = l Solving General,

40 General and Definition ( function via Cauchy Integral) Let C be a curve that encloses all eigenvalues of the square A. If the function f is analytical (can be written as a power series) on C and inside C then f (A) = 1 2πi C f (z)(zi A) 1 dz The R A (z) = (zi A) 1 is called the resolvent of A. Equivalent to the Hermite interpolation definition (for analytical ). Solving General,

41 power series and Using Taylor expansion f (x) = n=0 f (n) (a) (x a) n n many (to be precise, all analytical ) can be rewritten as a (convergent) polynomial of infinite degree. This can be proved from the Cauchy integral of the resolvent. Solving General,

42 and Linear equation system as matrices and column vectors: Ax = y, A and y known Simple equation: AX = Y or XB = Y, A and y known or B and y known Sylvester s equation: AX + XB = C, A, B, C known Liapunov s equation: AX + XA H = C, A, C known Solving General,

43 Solution to Sylvester s equation and Theorem Sylvester s equation AX + XB = C has a unique solution if and only if A and B have no common eigenvalues. Proof. To show this it is very useful to know about tensor products. Solving General,

44 and Generally: the tensor product on a set is the most general bilinear function on the set, it is often denoted by and sometimes referred to as the direct product and sometimes (for certain Hilbert spaces for example) outer product. for matrices always have two properties: a) Bilinearity: (µa + ηb) C = µa C + ηb C A (µb + ηc) = µa B + ηa C b) Associaticity: (A B) C = A (B C) For matrices is usually the Kroenecker product Solving General,

45 Kroenecker product Definition The Kroenecker product between two matrices, A M m n and B M p q, is defined as or a 11 B a 12 B... a 1n B a 21 B a 22 B... a 2n B A B = a m1 B a m2 B... a mn B Ab 11 Ab Ab 1n Ab 21 Ab Ab 2n A B = Ab m1 Ab m2... Ab mn these two definitions are equivalent but not equal, one is a permutation of the other. and Solving General,

46 Some properties of the Kroenecker product and Theorem For the Kroenecker product the following is true a) (µa + ηb) C = µa C + ηb C b) A (µb + ηc) = µa B + ηa C c) (A B) C = A (B C) d) (A B) = A B e) A B = A B (complex conjugate) f) (A B) H = A H B H g) (A B) 1 = A 1 B 1, for all invertible A and B h) det(a B) = det(a) k det(b) n, with A M n n, B M k k Solving General,

47 Some more properties of the Kroenecker product Theorem For the Kroenecker product the following is true i) (A B)(C D) = (AC BD), A M m n, B M n k, C M p q, D M q r j) A B = (A I k k )(I n n B), A M n n, B M k k k) AX = C (I A) X XB = C (B I ) X where X.1 X.2 X = [ ] X.1 X.2... X.n, X =. X.n and Solving General,

48 Eigenvalues and Kroenecker products and Theorem Let {λ} be the eigenvalues of A and {µ} be the eigenvalues of B. Then the following is true: a) {λµ} are the eigenvalues of A B b) {λ + µ} are the eigenvalues of A B Solving General,

49 Eigenvalues and Kroenecker products Proof. Proof (sketch) a) Use Shurs lemma A = S 1 R A S, B = T 1 R B T where R A and R B are triangular matrices with eigenvalues along the diagonal. Then A B = (S 1 R A S) (T 1 R B T ) = = (S 1 R A T 1 R B )(S T ) = = (S T ) 1 (R A R B )(S T ) R A R B will be triangular and will have the elements a ii b jj = λ i µ j on the diagonal, thus λ i µ j is an eigenvalue of A B since similar matrices have the same eigenvalues. b) Same argument as above gives A I (B I ) have the same eigenvalues as A (B) adding the two terms together gives λ + µ is an eigenvalue. and Solving General,

50 Solution to Sylvester s equation, and Theorem Sylvester s equation AX + XB = C has a unique solution if and only if A and B have no common eigenvalues. Proof. To show this it is very useful to know about tensor products. Solving General,

51 Solution to Sylvester s equation, and Proof. Rewrite the equation using the Kroenecker product AX + XB = C (I A + B I ) X = } {{ } C K This is a normal equation which is solvable if λ = 0 is not an eigenvalue of K. The eigenvalues of K are λ + µ where λ is an eigenvalue of A and µ is an eigenvalue of B. Thus if A and B have no common eigenvalues the eigenvalues of K will 0. Solving General,

52 and We have seen version of common function: A n, A,, e A Seen how analytical can be turned into using the Taylor expansion. Introduced the Kroenecker product. Taken a look at some, Sylvester s equation and first order. Solving General,
