1 Inner Product Spaces and Orthogonality week 3-4 Fall 2006 Dot product of R n The inner product or dot product of R n is a function, defined by u, v a b + a 2 b a n b n for u a, a 2,, a n T, v b, b 2,, b n T R n The inner product, satisfies the following properties: () Linearity: au + bv, w a u, w + b v, w (2) Symmetric Property: u, v v, u (3) Positive Definite Property: For any u V, u, u 0; and u, u 0 if and only if u 0 With the dot product we have geometric concepts such as the length of a vector, the angle between two vectors, orthogonality, etc We shall push these concepts to abstract vector spaces so that geometric concepts can be applied to describe abstract vectors 2 Inner product spaces Definition 2 An inner product of a real vector space V is an assignment that for any two vectors u, v V, there is a real number u, v, satisfying the following properties: () Linearity: au + bv, w a u, w + b v, w (2) Symmetric Property: u, v v, u (3) Positive Definite Property: For any u V, u, u 0; and u, u 0 if and only if u 0 The vector space V with an inner product is called a (real) inner product space Example 2 For x x x 2, y y y 2 R 2, define x, y 2x y x y 2 x 2 y + 5x 2 y 2 Then, is an inner product on R 2 It is easy to see the linearity and the symmetric property As for the positive definite property, note that Moreover, x, x 0 if and only if x, x 2x 2 2x x 2 + 5x 2 2 (x + x 2 ) 2 + (x 2x 2 ) 2 0 x + x 2 0, x 2x 2 0, which implies x x 2 0, ie, x 0 This inner product on R 2 is different from the dot product of R 2
2 For each vector u V, the norm (also called the length) of u is defined as the number u : u, u If u, we call u a unit vector and u is said to be normalized For any nonzero vector v V, we have the unit vector ˆv v v This process is called normalizing v Let B { u, u 2,, u n be a basis of an n-dimensional inner product space V For vectors u, v V, write u x u + x 2 u x n u n, The linearity implies We call the n n matrix v y u + y 2 u y n u n u, v n n x i u i, y j u j i n i j j n x i y j u i, u j u, u u, u 2 u, u n u 2, u u 2, u 2 u 2, u n A u n, u u n, u 2 u n, u n the matrix of the inner product, relative to the basis B Thus, using coordinate vectors u B x, x 2,, x n T, v B y, y 2,, y n T, we have u, v u T BAv B 3 Examples of inner product spaces Example 3 The vector space R n with the dot product u v a b + a 2 b a n b n, where u a, a 2,, a n T, v b, b 2,, b n T R n, is an inner product space The vector space R n with this special inner product (dot product) is called the Euclidean n-space, and the dot product is called the standard inner product on R n Example 32 The vector space Ca, b of all real-valued continuous functions on a closed interval a, b is an inner product space, whose inner product is defined by b f, g f(t)g(t)dt, a f, g Ca, b Example 33 The vector space M m,n of all m n real matrices can be made into an inner product space under the inner product A, B tr(b T A), where A, B M m,n 2
3 For instance, when m 3, n 2, and for we have Thus A a a 2 a 2 a 22 a 3 a 32, B b b 2 b 2 b 22 b 3 b 32 B T b a A + b 2 a 2 + b 3 a 3 b a 2 + b 2 a 22 + b 3 a 32 b 2 a + b 22 a 2 + b 32 a 3 b 2 a 2 + b 22 a 22 + b 32 a 32, A, B b a + b 2 a 2 + b 3 a 3 +b 2 a 2 + b 22 a 22 + b 32 a a ij b ij i j This means that the inner product space ( M 3,2,, ) is isomorphic to the Euclidean space ( R 3 2, ) 4 Representation of inner product Theorem 4 Let V be an n-dimensional vector space with an inner product,, and let A be the matrix of, relative to a basis B Then for any vectors u, v V, u, v x T Ay where x and y are the coordinate vectors of u and v, respectively, ie, x u B and y v B Example 4 For the inner product of R 3 defined by x, y 2x y x y 2 x 2 y + 5x 2 y 2, where x x x 2, y y y 2 R 2, its matrix relative to the standard basis E { e, e 2 is e, e A e, e 2 2 e 2, e e 2, e 2 5 The inner product can be written as x, y x T Ay x, x y y 2 We may change variables so the the inner product takes a simple form For instance, let { x (2/3)x + (/3)x 2 x 2 (/3)x (/3)x, 2 We have { y (2/3)y + (/3)y 2 y 2 (/3)y (/3)y 2 ( 2 x, y 2 3 x + )( 2 3 x 2 3 y + ) 3 y 2 ( 2 3 x + )( 3 x 2 3 y ) 3 y 2 ( 3 x )( 3 x 2 3 y ) 3 y 2 ( +5 3 x )( 3 x 2 3 y ) 3 y 2 x y + x 2y 2 x T y 3
4 This is equivalent to choosing a new basis so that the matrix of the inner product relative to the new basis is the identity matrix In fact, the matrix of the inner product relative to the basis B { u 2/3 /3 is the identity matrix, ie, u, u u 2, u u, u 2 u 2, u 2, u 2 /3 /3 0 0 Let P be the transition matrix from the standard basis {e, e 2 to the basis {u, u 2, ie, 2/3 /3 u, u 2 e, e 2 P e, e 2 /3 /3 Let x be the coordinate vector of the vector x relative the basis B (The coordinate vector of x relative to the standard basis is itself x) Then It follows that x e, e 2 x u, u 2 x e, e 2 P x x P x Similarly, let y be the coordinate vector of y relative to B Then y P y Note that x T x T P T Thus, on the one hand by Theorem, On the other hand, x, y x T I n y x T y x, y x T Ay x T P T AP y Theorem 42 Let V be a finite-dimensional inner product space Let A, B be matrices of the inner product relative to bases B, B of V, respectively If P is the transition matrix from B to B Then 5 Cauchy-Schwarz inequality B P T AP Theorem 5 (Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality) For any vectors u, v in an inner product space V, u, v 2 u, u v, v Equivalently, u, v u v Proof Consider the function y y(t) : u + tv, u + tv, t R Then y(t) 0 by the third property of inner product Note that y(t) is a quadratic function of t In fact, Thus the quadratic equation y(t) u, u + tv + tv, u + tv u, u + 2 u, v t + v, v t 2 u, u + 2 u, v t + v, v t 2 0 has at most one solution as y(t) 0 This implies that its discriminant must be less or equal to zero, ie, ( 2 u, v ) 2 4 u, u v, v 0 The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality follows 4
5 Theorem 52 The norm in an inner product space V satisfies the following properties: (N) v 0; and v 0 if and only if v 0 (N2) cv c v (N3) u + v u + v For nonzero vectors u, v V, the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality implies The angle θ between u and v is defined by The angle exists and is unique 6 Orthogonality cos θ u, v u v u, v u v Let V be an inner product space Two vectors u, v V are said to be orthogonal if u, v 0 Example 6 For inner product space C π, π, the functions sin t and cos t are orthogonal as sin t, cos t π π sin t cos t dt 2 sin2 t π π Example 62 Let u a, a 2,, a n T R n The set of all vector of the Euclidean n-space R n that are orthogonal to u is a subspace of R n In fact, it is the solution space of the single linear equation u, x a x + a 2 x a n x n 0 Example 63 Let u, 2, 3, 4, 5 T, v 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 T, and w, 2, 3, 3, 2 T R 5 The set of all vectors of R 5 that are orthogonal to u, v, w is a subspace of R 5 In fact, it is the solution space of the linear system x + 2x 2 + 3x 3 + 4x 4 + 5x 5 0 2x + 3x 2 + 4x 3 + 5x 4 + 6x 5 0 x + 2x 2 + 3x 3 + 3x 4 + 2x 5 0 Let S be a nonempty subset of an inner product space V We denote by S the set of all vectors of V that are orthogonal to every vector of S, called the orthogonal complement of S in V In notation, { S : v V v, u 0 for all u S If S contains only one vector u, we write u {v V v, u 0 Proposition 6 Let S be a nonempty subset of an inner product space V Then the orthogonal complement S is a subspace of V 5
6 Proof To show that S is a subspace We need to show that S is closed under addition and scalar multiplication Let u, v S and c R Since u, w 0 and v, w 0 for all w S, then u + v, w u, w + v, w 0, cu, w c u, w 0 for all w S So u + v, cu S Hence S is a subspace of R n Proposition 62 Let S be a subset of an inner product space V Then every vector of S is orthogonal to every vector of Span (S), ie, u, v 0, for all u Span (S), v S Proof For any u Span (S), the vector u must be a linear combination of some vectors in S, say, u a u + a 2 u a k u k Then for any v S, u, v a u, v + a 2 u 2, v + + a n u n, v 0 Example 64 Let A be an m n real matrix Then Nul A and Row A are orthogonal complements of each other in R n, ie, Nul A ( Row A ), ( Nul A ) Row A 7 Orthogonal sets and bases Let V be an inner product space A subset S { u, u 2,, u k of nonzero vectors of V is called an orthogonal set if every pair of vectors are orthogonal, ie, u i, u j 0, i < j k An orthogonal set S { u, u 2,, u k is called an orthonormal set if we further have u i, i k An orthonormal basis of V is a basis which is also an orthonormal set Theorem 7 (Pythagoras) Let v, v 2,, v k be mutually orthogonal vectors Then v + v v k 2 v 2 + v v k 2 Proof For simplicity, we assume k 2 If u and v are orthogonal, ie, u, v 0, then u + v 2 u + v, u + v u, u + v, v u 2 + v 2 Example 7 The three vectors v, 2, T, v 2 2,, 4 T, v 3 3, 2, T are mutually orthogonal Express the the vector v 7,, 9 T as a linear combination of v, v 2, v 3 Set x v + x 2 v 2 + x 3 v 3 v 6
7 There are two ways to find x, x 2, x 3 Method : Solving the linear system by performing row operations to its augmented matrix v, v 2, v 3 v, we obtain x 3, x 2, x 3 2 So v 3v v 2 + 2v 3 Method 2: Since v i v j for i j, we have where i, 2, 3 Then We then have v, v i x v + x 2 v 2 + x 3 v 3, v i x i v i, v i, x i v, v i, i, 2, 3 v i, v i x , x , x Theorem 72 Let v, v 2,, v k be an orthogonal basis of a subspace W Then for any w W, Proof Trivial 8 Orthogonal projection w v, w v, v v + v 2, w v 2, v 2 v v k, w v k, v k v k Let V be an inner product space Let v be a nonzero vector of V We want to decompose an arbitrary vector y into the form y αv + z, where z v Since z v, we have This implies that We define the vector v, y αv, v α v, v α Proj v (y) v, y v, v v, y v, v v, called the orthogonal projection of y along v The linear transformation Proj u : V V is called the orthogonal projection of V onto the direction v Proposition 8 Let v be a nonzero vector of the Euclidean n-space R n Then the orthogonal projection Proj u : R n R n is given by Proj v (y) v v vvt y; and the orthogonal projection Proj v : R n R n is given by ( Proj v (y) I ) v v vvt y 7
