M-matrix

The incidence matrix is an n A m matrix where the nodes (atoms) define the columns (n) and the edges (bonds) correspond to the rows [m). An entry obtains the value of 1 if the corresponding edge ends in this particular node (Figure 2-16),... 

The left side of the normal equations can be seen to be a product including X, its transpose, and m. Matrix multiplication shows that... 

The m matrix is already diagonalized. Take the masses and the force constant to be 1 arbitrary unit for simplicity and concentrate on the force constant matrix. We can diagonalize the k matrix... 

There are three real solutions to this eubie equation (why all the solutions are real in this ease for whieh the M matrix is real and symmetrie will be made elear later) ... 

An extension of this result is that a whole family of matriees, eaeh member related to the original M matrix, ean be formed by eombining the eigenvalues and eigenveetors as follows ... 

Principal component analysis (PCA) takes the m-coordinate vectors q associated with the conformation sample and calculates the square m X m matrix, reflecting the relationships between the coordinates. This matrix, also known as the covariance matrix C, is defined as... 

The singular values of a complex n x m matrix A, denoted by cr,(A) are the nonnegative square-roots of the eigenvalues of A A ordered such that...

We note here an important concept introduced by Polya, that of the "corona" or "wreath product" of two permutation groups. If M is an w X M matrix, and G and H are permutation groups of degree m and n, consider all permutations of the mn elements of M obtained as follows ... 

Consider a system with N chemical components undergoing a set of M reactions. Obviously, N > M. Define the A x M matrix of stoichiometric coefficients as... 

The space of the column-vectors x such as Ax=Om< where 0m is a m x m matrix of zeroes, is called the nullspace of the matrix A. Any vector from the nullspace is therefore orthogonal to any vector from the row-space. The left nullspace of A is the set of vectors ym such as yTA = 0 . Any vector from the left nullspace is therefore orthogonal to any vector from the column-space. The left nullspace of A is identical to the nullspace of AT. 

For data with many variables and a small number of objects (n is much smaller than in), the above SVD decomposition is very time consuming. Therefore, a more efficient algorithm avoids the computation of the eigenvectors of the m x m matrix X1 X. It can be shown that To is the matrix of eigenvectors of X X1, and P is the matrix of eigenvectors of XT X, both normalized to length 1 (see also Appendix A.2.7).

Technique 2 Elgenanalysls. It Is well known that the structure of a data set can be uncovered by performing an elgenanalysls of Its covariance matrix.(14) This Is often called principal component analysis. That Is, we arrange the M measurement made on each of N objects as a column vector and combine them to form an M x N matrix, A. A matrix B, resembling the covariance matrix of this data set, Is an M x M matrix AA whose elements are given by... 

Suppose we want to calculate p derived quantities u , dependent on the m unknowns Xj, determined by a least-squares procedure. If D is the p x m matrix...
