A. (For Math 603 students only) Consider a symmetric and positive definite matrix A Rnxn and let λ'nin(A) and Xmax(A) be the minimal and maximal real eigenvalues of A respectively. Show that...
A real symmetric matrix B e Rnxn (i.e. BT = B) is said to be positive definite if all of its eigenvalues 11, 12, ..., In are positive. (Recall that is an eigenvalue of B if and only if there exits a nonzero vector t such that Bt = it). Show that B-1 is also positive definite. That is, you need to show that all the eigenvalues of B-1 are also positive. (Hint: consider equation Bt; = liti for all...
