The first two steps of the Gram–Schmidt process. In mathematics, particularly linear algebra and numerical analysis, the Gram–Schmidt process or Gram-Schmidt algorithm is a way of finding a set of two or more vectors that are perpendicular to each other.
More generally, we can factor a complex m×n matrix A, with m ≥ n, as the product of an m×m unitary matrix Q and an m×n upper triangular matrix R.As the bottom (m−n) rows of an m×n upper triangular matrix consist entirely of zeroes, it is often useful to partition R, or both R and Q:
An alternative way to arrive at the same expressions is to take the first three derivatives of the curve r′(t), r′′(t), r′′′(t), and to apply the Gram-Schmidt process. The resulting ordered orthonormal basis is precisely the TNB frame. This procedure also generalizes to produce Frenet frames in higher dimensions.
Applying Gram–Schmidt one obtains an orthonormal basis (e i) for H. Let (H i) be the corresponding nested sequence of "coordinate" subspaces of H. The matrix a i,j expressing T with respect to (e i) is almost upper triangular, in the sense that the coefficients a i+1,i are the only nonzero sub-diagonal coefficients.
An early successful application of the LLL algorithm was its use by Andrew Odlyzko and Herman te Riele in disproving Mertens conjecture. [5]The LLL algorithm has found numerous other applications in MIMO detection algorithms [6] and cryptanalysis of public-key encryption schemes: knapsack cryptosystems, RSA with particular settings, NTRUEncrypt, and so forth.
In other words, the sequence is obtained from the sequence of monomials 1, x, x 2, … by the Gram–Schmidt process with respect to this inner product. Usually the sequence is required to be orthonormal , namely, P n , P n = 1 , {\displaystyle \langle P_{n},P_{n}\rangle =1,} however, other normalisations are sometimes used.
Using Zorn's lemma and the Gram–Schmidt process (or more simply well-ordering and transfinite recursion), one can show that every Hilbert space admits an orthonormal basis; [7] furthermore, any two orthonormal bases of the same space have the same cardinality (this can be proven in a manner akin to that of the proof of the usual dimension ...
Jørgen Pedersen Gram (27 June 1850 – 29 April 1916) was a Danish actuary and mathematician who was born in Nustrup, Duchy of Schleswig, Denmark and died in Copenhagen, Denmark. Important papers of his include On series expansions determined by the methods of least squares , and Investigations of the number of primes less than a given number .
