Our next goal is to interpret the quotients of group actions as colimits. Assume, that X is some mathematical object (e.g., topological space, vector space, abstract simplicial complex, graph), and assume that a group G acts on X. Let us first informally contemplate what a quotient X/G should be. 

In quantum theory, physical systems move in vector spaces that are, unlike those in classical physics, essentially complex. This difference has had considerable impact on the status, interpretation, and mathematics of the theory. These aspects will be discussed in this chapter within the general context of simple molecular systems, while concentrating at the same time on instances in which the electronic states of the molecule are exactly or neatly degenerate. It is hoped... 

A final point to be made concerns the symmetry of the molecular system. The branching space vectors in Eqs. (75) and (76) can be obtained by evaluating the derivatives of matrix elements in the adiabatic basis... 

The matrix A in Eq. (7-21) is comprised of orthogonal vectors. Orthogonal vectors have a dot product of zero. The mutually perpendicular (and independent) Cartesian coordinates of 3-space are orthogonal. An orthogonal n x n such as matr ix A may be thought of as n columns of n-element vectors that are mutually perpendicular in an n-dimensional vector space. 

The ordered set of measurements made on each sample is called a data vector. The group of data vectors, identically ordered, for all of the samples is called the data matrix. If the data matrix is arranged such that successive rows of the matrix correspond to the different samples, then the columns correspond to the variables as in Figure 1. Each variable, or aspect of the sample that is measured, defines an axis in space the samples thus possess a data stmcture when plotted as points in that / -dimensional vector space, where n is the number of variables. 

Rules of matrix algebra can be appHed to the manipulation and interpretation of data in this type of matrix format. One of the most basic operations that can be performed is to plot the samples in variable-by-variable plots. When the number of variables is as small as two then it is a simple and familiar matter to constmct and analyze the plot. But if the number of variables exceeds two or three, it is obviously impractical to try to interpret the data using simple bivariate plots. Pattern recognition provides computer tools far superior to bivariate plots for understanding the data stmcture in the //-dimensional vector space. 

In terms of linear vector space, Buckingham s theorem (Theorem 2) simply states that the null space of the dimensional matrix has a fixed dimension, and Van Driest s rule (Theorem 3) then specifies the nullity of the dimensional matrix. The problem of finding a complete set of B-numbers is equivalent to that of computing a fundamental system of solutions of equation 13 called a complete set of B-vectors. For simplicity, the matrix formed by a complete set of B-vectors will be called a complete B-matrix. It can also be demonstrated that the choice of reference dimensions does not affect the B-numbers (22).

This tutorial looks at how MATLAB commands are used to convert transfer functions into state-space vector matrix representation, and back again. The discrete-time response of a multivariable system is undertaken. Also the controllability and observability of multivariable systems is considered, together with pole placement design techniques for both controllers and observers. The problems in Chapter 8 are used as design examples. 

In elementary algebra, a linear function of the coordinates xi of a variable vector f = (jci, JT2,..., Jc ) of the finite-dimensional vector space V = V P) is a polynomial function of the special form... 

We. .. therefore define a linear functional / on any vector space V over any field F as a function which satisfies the above identities. 

A vector space is a set with very special properties, which I don t have time to discuss. Wavefunctions are members of vector spaces. If we identify set A with the set of all possible electron densities for the problem of interest, and set B as the set of all real energies, then / defines a density functional. 

Formally, to each site H is assigned a A -dimensional complex color vector space spanned by the color eigenvectors >, >, so that a... 

Many in the field of analytical chemistry have found it difficult to apply chemometrics to their work. The mathematics can be intimidating, and many of the techniques use abstract vector spaces which can seem counterintuitive. This has created a "barrier to entry" which has hindered a more rapid and general adoption of chemometric techniques. 

Many analytical practitioners encounter a serious mental block when attempting to deal with factor spaces. The basis of the mental block is twofold. First, all this talk about abstract vector spaces, eigenvectors, regressions on projections of data onto abstract factors, etc., is like a completely alien language. Even worse, the techniques are usually presented as a series of mathematical equations from a statistician s or mathematician s point of view. All of this serves to separate the (un )willing student from a solid relationship with his data a relationship that, usually, is based on visualization. Second, it is often not clear why we would go through all of the trouble in the first place. How can all of these "abstract", nonintuitive manipulations of our data provide any worthwhile benefits ... 

The general vector in Fock space may have components in some or all of the Hilbert subspaces, which means that it is now possible to consider states in which there is a superposition of different populations. Thus, we may represent the Fock space vector at an arbitrary time t by a symbol and expand this state in terms of its components in each subspace ... 

A Lorentz invariant scalar product can be defined in the linear vector space formed by the positive energy solutions which makes this vector space into a Hilbert space. For two positive energy Klein-... 

The operator a (k) so defined has the property that it takes a vector T) with transversal components into a vector aJ(A) T) whose components are no longer trarisversal. Hence, in order to define the operators ctu(k) and a (k), we need a larger vector space than the one whose elements have only transversal components. Within the scalar product... 

In effect the scalar product in (9-688), which makes the vector space into a Hilbert space, omits the factor ( —1) from the bilinear form (9-687). We shall always work with the indefinite bilinear form (9-687). Thus, for example, one verifies that with this indefinite metric... 

Note that in the Lorentz gauge we have to adopt the Gupta-Bleuler quantization scheme, with its indefinite metric in a vector space that contains, in addition to the physically realizable states, unphysical... 

It is possible to perform a systematic decoupling of this moment expansion using the superoperator formalism (34,35). An infinite dimensional operator vector space defined by a basis of field operators Xj which supports the scalar product (or metric)... 

Linear operators. Let X and Y be normed vector spaces and T be a subspace of the space X. If to each vector x V there corresponds by an... 

It is worth noting here that in a finite-dimensional space any linear operator is bounded. All of the linear bounded operators from X into Y constitute what is called a normed vector space, since the norm j4 of an operator A satisfies all of the axioms of the norm ... 

Linear operators in finite-dimensional spaces. It is supposed that an n-dimensional vector space R is equipped with an inner product (, ) and associated norm a = / x x). By the definition of finite-dimensional space, any vector x G i n can uniquely be represented as a linear combina-... 

As we will see later, it is possible to present the principal aspects of the theory of difference schemes with further treatment of Hh as an abstract vector space of arbitrary dimension.
