      @@Gojam12 The ranking thing was in reply to a comment that has apparently since been deleted. I really have no idea what you’re talking about and I don’t particularly care. You do not need 2 years of college calculus to take linear - 2 semesters maybe (that’s a single year). I took AP Calc in high school and went straight into Multivariate Calc and Linear my freshman year. Since this is MIT, I’m going to guess many students are in a similar boat. Linear Algebra is indeed basic math, sorry. It is where most students just begin to get their feet wet in digging into mathematical theory. If you want to argue further over something so trivial, feel free to keep arguing with yourself here - I won’t be replying again. This was a lighthearted comment and certainly not meant to be a treatise on mathematical genius - I find it amusing that you should need that pointed out to you. Goodbye.

    Also jab ham row exchanges nahi karte hai then L simply mil jata hai bas identity matrix mein E21 ,E31 and E32 ko zero karne k liye jo operations kiye hai unka sign reverse karke Identity matrix mein respective positions par likhna hai .
    And jab ham row exchanges karte hai in order to get the U matrix then also its very simple bas as compared to previous case jab row exchanges nahi kar rahe the yaha par permutation matrices will also be present as the elementary matrices and their inverse is also very simple to calculate.
    Permutation matrix is itself it's inverse.

    • @scottliu1866
      @scottliu1866 4 роки тому +2

      Ajitesh Bhan That is because we only wanna know the highest order of the possible answer, as a estimate parameter of what so called “cost” or “complexity”.Try 1 to 10 you will find n cube is significantly greater then n sq when n grows bigger and bigger, so we just do a estimate to know the highest order is n cube which is good enough to know the cost, because n sq and other factor is so small compared with n cube.

    • @scottliu1866
      @scottliu1866 4 роки тому +1

      Ajitesh Bhan the first step is n(n-1) if we do a accurate count, but n sq is fine for the same reason that we just wanna know the approximately cost order, it is Order 2 obviously so n sq is okay instead of a more acc n(n-1).

    n^2 + (n-1)^2 + (n-2)^2 + ... + 2^2 + 1^2 = n * (n+1) * (2n + 1) / 6. As n becomes "big", this sum approaches n^3 / 3. His approach in the lecture is also good. Plot a graph of y = x^2 and identify the points x = n, x = n-1, x = n-2, ..., x = 1, and you'll find that if n is big enough, the discrete plots start to look more and more like the curve y = x^2, which then allows you to approximate the area under the curve. Again, what you get for a reasonably large n is n^3 / 3. One final thing is, if these operations are performed in a loop, you'll need way more time, because his analysis assumes an operation on an entire row. To achieve this, you would need vectorized code that can operate on the entire row at once. Hope this helped someone :)

      Shouldn't it be : n(n+1)/2

      4x4 -------> 3+3=6 operations

      6x6--------->10+5 = 15 operations
      7x7---------> 15+6 = 21 operations
      Hence 1+2+3+4+5+6+.....n = n(n+1)/2

      Another visualization is building a pyramid starting with a block of base n^2 and height equal to one, then another smaller block with base (n-1)^2 and height one on top and so on eventually resulting in the overall height of n. When n grows and the point of observation moves away from the pyramid such that the height appears to be constant, the blocky pyramid becomes increasingly smooth and the volume approaches 1/3n^3.

    So clear the explanation is that for a simple matrix (3X3) I can directly flush out the inverse matrix given the multiplier at each elimination step, without going thru matrix inverse and multiplication.
    Here is the process:
    (1) Flip the sign of multiplier at each elimination step.
    (2) Directly add it in the L matrix in the same position (index) of L.
    In the example of 18:00, flip (-2) I get 2, then add 2 in position L[2,1]; flip (-5) I get 5, add 5 in position L[2,3]. So I got L.
    BTW, another way to understand that L is better than E is that:
    (1) When producing E, there are interfered operations happening and thus a new (implicit) relationship between row1 and row3 is formed. As a result, a new entry (10) is appearing to reflect the newly created (implicit) relationship among row1 and row3, as shown at the position E[3, 1].
    (2) When producing L, the operations are in the right order that there are no interfered operations thus no implicit relationships were generated. So we can just plug in the multiplier (the entry) directly to L, without worrying about missing any entries.
    (3) As a side note, the entry value tells about the multiplication, BUT more importantly, the index of each entry tells about he the relationship between rows. Eg. In matrix E32, the entry E[3, 2] = -5, it means the change coming from row2 to row3, with (-5) as the amount. Getting an explicit explanation on the role of entry indexes helps a lot to build some intuitive in a long run.
    Thank you Dr. Strang. You are the hero of Linear Algebra!

      @ElizaberthUndEugen 3 роки тому +3

      "When producing L, the operations are in the right order"
      I don't understand why that is. The order is determined by the order of the E_i, just in each case it is the inverse of the respective E... How can the order be "right" if it was determined by the order of the E_i. There are multiple possible sequences of E_i after all.

    Since all eliminations must be done by computers for large matrices, intuitive approaches fail quickly. So, precise rigorous algorithms are the only practical way to do elimination. Gilbert Strang style defies the rigorous approach, and does it on purpose to breath life into the dull process of elimination.

    Great video! I love this series. In this lecture, Dr. Strang briefly mentions that the cost of operations for the det(A) will be (n!) He also shows us how the cost of getting A into upper triangular form U will be (1/3)n^3. But from Lecture 2 we know that one way of finding det(A) is to get A into U and then simply find the product of all n pivots. So it seems like the cost for finding det(A) would just be a bit more than (1/3)n^3, perhaps (1/3)n^3 + n. I must be missing something here; any thoughts?

      If I understand you correctly, I think the new term n is ignored because it's not significant compared to n^3 as n goes to infinity. I'm no expert and I'm not even sure if you are right. But if you are, and you are wondering why the n is ignored compared to n^3, i think this is the reason.

      Weston Loucks you're right. When you calculate the upper triangular form and than multiply the pivots, the work scales with n^3.

      Yaa, I was thinking about it and, it came to me that, let's say we have 100 by 100 matrix. Now if we count a multiplication and subtraction as two operations then to reach a state where the first column of the matrix has only one non zero element and which is our pivot in 1st row, we do 100 subtractions for 99 rows as the first row remains unchanged, also, since we are multiplying all the elements of a row by some multiplier we also have 100 multiplications 99 times . So , the answer should be about 2*100*99 . Generalizing for n elements it comes to be 2*n*(n-1). And so the total operations will be 2*[(1/3)(n^3) - (1/2)(n^2)]
      PS: If we take into account the discreteness, total no of operations = 2*[n(n+1)(n-1)/3]

      If there is -4, just put 4 in the sample place. It is kind of related to the ways of understanding matrix multiplication. Start with EA = U, this means you are doing one step of elimination to A, say step E21. The step is, you get row 2 minus 4 times row 1 (for A). This is what the second row of E, i.e., (-4, 1) means. Now you want to cancel this step E to get A = LU. You need to add back the 4 times row 1 to row 2. So the new (4, 1) means, get a changed row 2, add 4 times row 1 back.

      it seems to be every operation of "every numbers" in "every row" has to be considerd as 1 operation.
      Like when you change (2,1) to zero,you also change (2,2)...(2,100) as well,cause you multiply the whole row1 by some constant,and let row2 substract it.
      So you have already consumed 100 times of operation when ending fixing the row2,and then doing row3 cost 100,doing row4 cost 100 ...until row100.
      That's why you already use 100 squared just after finishing fix first colume of A.
      It's just my guess,cause in the video he said "a multiply plus a substraction of raw" is defined as "1 operation" , so it confused me as well,hope there will be another smart guy that can answers us.

      Gilbert said " the cost comes from the number of multiplication and subtraction that you did when you multiply 2 rows by some number to make the (2,1) component zero, you have to subtract every element in 2nd row from the 1st row multiplied by some number so the number of calculation you did equals to 100 the rest of 98 rows take the same step. Therefore the number of calculation you did equals to 100+100+100... 100 (= 100*99) and the last 100 comes from the fact that you have went through 100 times multiplication of 1st rows to make the 1st column except for (1,1) component zero. So (100*99) + 100 = 100*100 ^^

      because once you eliminate a single element from a row then that whole row will be changed, as each row has 100 elements all those will be changed, i.e in a single row operation you will be changing 100 elements. so in first step when you're eliminating first element of all 99 rows (below first row) so a total of 100*99 elements are changed which is roughly taken as 100^2.

      He proves that you multiply in reverse order with inverses. He doesn't prove that with transpose.

So you have to reverse order to multiply row * matrix.

    at 32:35 => Should not the first cost be 99*2 instead of 100^2 because there are 99 rows below first one. For pivoting each row below, you need to multiply the first row by some constant then subtract from the row you are pivoting. So, essentially are we not ending up having 2 operations per row for those 99 rows, hence, 99*2 instead of 100^2 ???

    • @bridge5189

      I think I have figured it out. It would be like for each element in any row below first one, you would be getting (that element - multiplier*corresponding first row element) and this is 1 operation. So, you have 99 rows below first row each having 100 elements, so, it should be 100*99 operations, which Prof. Strang writes as *about 100*.

      Think about what happens to the entries in the matrix every time you do a row exchange. You can never get more than the single 1 in each row that is moved into that row from another one since rows are exchanged.
      In other words, every exchange is a new ordering of the rows of 1’s leaving no COLUMNS with more than one 1 as well since no extra 1’s are added to any rows - and the starting point was the identity matrix.
      This is what the permutations are all about. Whenever you have done a row exchange you can think of this way: there are four ways to put a 1 in any given row, but then there are only three ways to put a 1 in the next row you choose since you cannot get any 1’s above and below each other), and then there are two ways to choose the third 1 and for the last row you only have one position left in which to complete the order and thereby the row exchange.
      Altogether this makes for 4x3x2x1 ways to choose the order of the 1’s or n! ways to order a given n x n matrix and this type of rearranging is called “permuting” and every instance of ordering is a single permutation.

      That would give n^3 which is up for a factor of 3. Take into account that the elementary matrix are special matrices and there are plenty of 1s and 0s, so his way is more precisse.

    Why is space a subspace of itself? A container is not ann object inside of itself, a the components of an object are not the sum of its components.

    39:35,The cost of columns is about n^2 or 1/2n^2?I think it should be about 1/2n^2.

      Yes, I think so too. And to be precise it would be n*(n-1)/2

      kinda late, but I'm pretty sure that it is because we want the first pivot. So we subtract this row by everything else to allow it to be the pivot, the other numbers would need to change too (the ones other parts of the row). You must add/subtract every other number in the row. Anyways it is cool that you are learning during a time like this :)
