  • A video illustrating the underlying elegant visual interpretation of Spectral Decomposition.
    Chapters:
    0:00 Chapter 1 Summary
    1:23 Symmetric Matrix ?
    1:44 Property of Transpose
    3:27 Matrix Decomposition
    4:58 Eigen Vectors and Eigen Values
    8:07 Strong Property of Symmetric Matrix
    9:36 Spectral Decomposition
    12:03 Visualization
    14:13 appreciation
    Video Sins:
    1. regarding the eigenvectors of symmetric, it is correct to say the eigen vectors are orthogonal if the matrix is full rank. However, the formal definition is there always exist a orthornormal basis which contains the eigen vectors of the symmetric matrix, for details refer to • 25. Symmetric Matrices... , where professor Strang explains the case with eigen vectors with eigen value of 0.
    2. 00:50: a diagonal matrix is also a symmetric matrix, and its visual interpretation is very straightforward. So it’s definitely not correct to say every symmetric matrix produces a visually complicated transformation. But normally when we address a matrix as a symmetric, we often mean “symmetric and non-diagonal”, if the matrix is diagonal, we would just call it diagonal matrix.
    3. 2:46, the transpose of orthogonal matrix is also a orthogonal matrix. I didn’t mention this fact.
    4. 7:42, when the eigen value is 0, it means the vector is in the null-space, pretty important fact, which I didn’t mention.
    5. 14:20: the visual interpretation of matrix decomposition doesn’t apply to every type of matrix decomposition. Most matrix decomposition are often used for speeding up computational purposes, for example the LU decomposition.
    6. Order of eigen vector could be swap, so there are many alternative decomposition of symmetric matrices.
    This video wouldn’t be possible without the inspiration of the legendary 3b1b :

    I literally have zero ideas, why does this series have so less views. This is literally the best extension to 3b1b's Linear Algebra series. This is exceptionally exquisite! Subbed!

      EoP (Essence of Linear Algebra) is exactly what inspired this series. I never want to compare anything I make to the legendary 3b1b, but your comment were spot on, I hope this series can somewhat be an informal extension of of EoP. Just like in most college course linear algebra course, the first half focus on things like (vector, range, null space, determinants, linear dependence); the second half of course is almost exclusively focusing on matrix decomposition, and personally I thought the visual interpretation of them were equally valuable hence this series. Appreciate your very encouraging words, did you check out SVD by the way ?

      @@visualkernel yes. It was exactly what I needed to know. I always wanted to know why all of a sudden doing the eigen decomposition of AA^T was thought of to calculate the SVD. Now I understand.

    Thx for the video! Couple of questions:
    1. Does the SD(spectral decomposition) method, work only for full rank symmetric matrices? What are in general the conditions for the SD to work?
    2. Would this work also for complex-valued symmetric matrices?

    • @Lonewolf-xv1bl
      @Lonewolf-xv1bl 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      2. Yes. Complex valued symmetric matrix is called Hermitian matrix. You can perform similarity transformation with the help unitary matrix. Which are complex analogue of orthogonal matrix.
      Symmetric matrix S => Hermitian matrix H
      Orthogonal matrix O => Unitary matrix U
      You have O'SO similar for complex case
      You get (U*)'HU
      Here * represents complex conjugation and ' represents trasponse. There is single notation to represent it called dagger. It is not available in my keyboard so I broke it down.
      You have to take complex conjugation and then transport it.
