Subspace angle

Both the subspace angle and the expected prediction difference can be used to evaluate the model discrimination capability of a design d over a model space T. In Section 4, the selection of orthogonal designs using criteria based on these measures is discussed. 

Alternatively, Matlab s built-in function norm can be used to determine normalisation coefficients and perform the same task. An example for column-wise normalisation of a matrix X with orthogonal columns is given below. It is worthwhile to compare X with equation (2.15) the subspace command can be used to determine the angle between the vectors (in rad) and reconfirm orthogonality. ... 

A first distinction is made between the vacuum of correlations and the true correlations. The former can be defined as the integral of the distribution function p over all angle variables. The set of all (normalizable) functions of J alone forms a subset of the whole functional space. Its complement is the subspace of correlations. The distribution function is thus written as... 

In other words, for any real number d the linear transformation p (e " ) rotates the second entry of the complex 2-vector counterclockwise through an angle of d radians while leaving the first entry unchanged. It is not hard to see that the (complex) one-dimensional subspace... 

Each of these matrices describes a rotation (by an angle u>ij,i < j j = 1 -t- n) in a two-dimensional subspace (plane) of the n-dimensional space. In a specific case of the 50(3) group - that of rotations of the physical R3 space - the matrices of rotations around coordinate axes x,y, and z are ... 

Consider now the same arrangement of A and A embedded in En+1, by regarding E" as a subspace of En+L A two-dimensional rotation in En+1 is defined by its (n-l)-dimensional axis and by the angle a of rotation in the remaining two dimensions. [Note that in a k-dimensional space, the axis of rotation is (k-2)-dimensional.] Choose the rotation axis in En+ as the (n-l)-dimensional subset defined as the reflection hyperplane E"- of condition x i = 0 in E". With respect to this axis, a rotation of angle a = 7C in the two-dimensional plane spanned by coordinates (xi, x +i) superimposes A on A in (n+l)-dimensions. Consequently, the object A is achiral in (n+l)-dimensions (i.e., when embedded in space E"+ ). Furthermore, the superimposition of mirror images performed in En+1 is a possible motion in any Euclidean space En+k (> of which En+ is a subspace, hence A is achiral in any higher dimensions. Consequently, chirality may occur only in the lowe.st dimension where A is embeddable. Q.E.D. 

The set of all square integrable functions of the polar angles (9, fi) forms a Hilbert space. This space is spanned by the spherical harmonics Yim(9, 4) and can be decomposed into subspaces such that the Ith subspace is spanned by the (21 + 1) spherical harmonics of index /. 

It can be seen from (26) that a is independent of 0,. If we set either 02 or 03 equal to zero, ead and jad are planes in the corresponding three-dimensional subspaces and intersect along a straight line in the e, 0j plane. In addition, a is restricted to the two values tt/4 and 3ir/4 for 02 = 0 and the different two values 0 and tt/2 for 0, = 0. If, on the other hand, we set Q, = 0, efd and ef become the lower and upper manifold of a circular double cone whose vertex is the origin and whose axis of symmetry is the e axis. In a coordinate system in which this axis is replaced by an e/b axis (in order to make its units the same as those of the Qk), the cone s half-angle is 45°. The intersection... 

Figure 1. Transformations defining D-dimensional hyperspherical polar coordinates in terms of Cartesian coordinates, illustrated for D = 2,3,4,... On going from the D to D + 1 case, a further Cartesian axis xd+i is added the radius vector r is then projected on this axis via the cosine of the new polar angle 0d+i and projected on the D-dimensional subspace via the sine of that angle.

For simplicity, we consider D-dimensional cylindrical coordinates. These comprise a linear coordinate z orthogonal to a (D — 1) subspace. The subspace is specified by spherical coordinates p, the radius of the (D — 1) hypersphere, and Q.d-2, a set of (D — 2) angles. Accordingly, we take z = xd and define p by Eq.(3) with D — D — 1. For D = 3, in addition to z and p there is a single azimuthal angle of rotation. As pictured in Fig. 10 of Chapter 1, the nuclei are located on the -axis at —R/2 and 4-72/2, respectively. In H2 the Coulombic interaction depends only on R and (p, z), the pair of coordinates that locate the electron. In H2, the interaction involves five electronic coordinates (pi j zi) and (p2, Z2) and the dihedral angle between the pair of planes that contain the electrons and the molecular axis.
