Multiple orthogonal projection

The most convenient way to plot a projection of an w-dimensional system in an m-dimensional linear projective subspace is to use multiple orthogonal projection, in which the directions of projection rays are parallel to the normal vectors (qi, q>,. .., qn-m) defining the projective subspace. Under this projection, a point is first projected in the direction of qi, then of q/, and so on. A convenient set of canonical coordinates describing the projective subspace is given by... 

A special case of orthogonal projection in homogeneous space is the frequently used Janecke projection, where one reference component is neglected and the composition of the remaining species are renormalized. As a special case of multiple orthogonal projection, we define multiple Janecke projection, where the dimensionality is reduced directly to m. If components (m + 1) to (C - 1) are taken to be the reference components, the elements of the projection ray vectors (gi, qi, qc-m-1 are... 

Equation (9) describes a linear stoichiometric variety of dimension R. A reactive projection is defined as a multiple orthogonal projection from a C-dimensional space to a (C - R - 1)-dimensional subspace, where the directions of the R projection rays follow the directions of (qi, q>,. .., q ) defined in Eq. (10). Such projection causes the stoichiometric variety to disappear, leaving a reaction-invariant projection. The set of canonical coordinates defining the projective subspace can be found by substituting Eq. (10) into Eqs. (2)—(4) [7]. 

Proof. Suppose every linear transformation 7 V —> V that commutes with p is a scalar multiple of the identity. Suppose also that W is an invariant subspace for (G, V, p. must show that IV = V. By Proposition 3.5, because V is finite dimensional there is an orthogonal projection fliy V V whose image is W. Since p is unitary, we can apply Proposition 5.4 to show that the linear transformation flyy is a homomorphism of representations. So, by... 

Multiplication of an operator on the right by a projection operator means that any linear combination of functions which are orthogonal to the space onto which P projects can be added to a function on which an operator acts without effect. Let us see how this bears on our equation for x- Obviously we choose to work with the non-local form of Vps ... 

It is now desirable to deal with the nonclassical behavior of the kernel in the linear laws in a precise, formal way. Of course, one could simply try to improve the crude method just discussed such an approach is perfectly valid. However, we feel that an alternate procedure, which has almost always been used in the literature, is preferable. Mori s method allows the writing of equations with well-behaved kernels if the proper set of variables is chosen. The kernel in the linear laws is badly behaved due to the influence of the nonlinear variable. If we include the linear and nonlinear variables in the set of variables to which Mori s method is applied, the random forces and the dissipative fluxes (/ will be defined precisely in this section) will be projected orthogonal to all of these variables. The kernels in the resulting equations, the nonlinear Langevin equations, should behave classically. Thus, convolutions involving K will be converted into scalar multiplication by the classical relation. 

In the case where Xt is zero because we have two states of different spin multiplicity, we simply project onto the ii - I-dimensional orthogonal complement space.
