Study Notes
Definition and Notation
- A complex number is a number of the form
a + bi, where:-
ais the real part -
bis the imaginary part -
iis the imaginary unit, which satisfiesi^2 = -1
-
Properties
- Complex numbers can be added and subtracted component-wise:
-
(a + bi) + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + d)i -
(a + bi) - (c + di) = (a - c) + (b - d)i
-
- Complex numbers can be multiplied using the distributive property:
-
(a + bi) * (c + di) = (ac - bd) + (ad + bc)i
-
- Complex numbers can be divided using the conjugate:
-
(a + bi) / (c + di) = ((a + bi) * (c - di)) / (c^2 + d^2)
-
Conjugate and Modulus
- The conjugate of
a + biisa - bi - The modulus (or absolute value) of
a + biis√(a^2 + b^2)
Polar Form
- Complex numbers can be represented in polar form:
-
a + bi = r(cos(θ) + i*sin(θ)), where:-
ris the modulus (radius) -
θis the argument (angle)
-
-
De Moivre's Theorem
-
r(cos(θ) + i*sin(θ))^n = r^n(cos(nθ) + i*sin(nθ)) - Used to raise complex numbers to integer powers
Euler's Formula
-
e^(iθ) = cos(θ) + i*sin(θ) - Relates exponential and trigonometric functions
Complex Numbers
- A complex number is a number of the form
a + bi, whereais the real part,bis the imaginary part, andiis the imaginary unit, which satisfiesi^2 = -1.
Properties of Complex Numbers
- Complex numbers can be added and subtracted component-wise.
- When adding or subtracting complex numbers, the real parts are added/subtracted, and the imaginary parts are added/subtracted.
- Complex numbers can be multiplied using the distributive property.
- When multiplying complex numbers, the real and imaginary parts are multiplied separately.
- Complex numbers can be divided using the conjugate.
- When dividing complex numbers, the conjugate of the denominator is used to simplify the expression.
Conjugate and Modulus
- The conjugate of
a + biisa - bi. - The modulus (or absolute value) of
a + biis√(a^2 + b^2). - The modulus represents the distance from the origin to the complex number on the complex plane.
Polar Form
- Complex numbers can be represented in polar form:
a + bi = r(cos(θ) + i*sin(θ)). -
ris the modulus (radius) andθis the argument (angle). - Polar form is used to visualize complex numbers on the complex plane.
De Moivre's Theorem
- De Moivre's Theorem states:
r(cos(θ) + i*sin(θ))^n = r^n(cos(nθ) + i*sin(nθ)). - The theorem is used to raise complex numbers to integer powers.
- It provides a formula for calculating the result of raising a complex number to a power.
Euler's Formula
- Euler's Formula states:
e^(iθ) = cos(θ) + i*sin(θ). - The formula relates exponential and trigonometric functions.
- It provides a connection between the exponential function and the sine and cosine functions.
Matrix Determinants
- The determinant of a matrix is a scalar value that describes the properties of the matrix.
- Notated as |A| or det(A).
- Has the following properties:
- Multiplicativity: det(AB) = det(A) × det(B).
- Scalar multiplication: det(cA) = c^n × det(A) for an n × n matrix A.
Linear Transformations
- A linear transformation is a function between vector spaces that preserves vector operations.
- Can be represented by a matrix, where the matrix product of the matrix and a vector represents the transformation of the vector.
- Has the following properties:
- Linearity: T(av + bw) = aT(v) + bT(w).
- Composition: The composition of two linear transformations is also a linear transformation.
- Types of linear transformations:
- Isomorphism: A bijective linear transformation.
- Endomorphism: A linear transformation from a vector space to itself.
Matrix Equations
- A matrix equation is an equation involving matrices, often used to solve systems of linear equations.
- Types of matrix equations:
- Linear systems: AX = B, where A is the coefficient matrix, X is the variable matrix, and B is the constant matrix.
- Homogeneous systems: AX = 0, where A is the coefficient matrix and X is the variable matrix.
- Solution methods:
- Gaussian elimination.
- LU decomposition.
- Inverse matrix method.
Eigenvalues
- An eigenvalue is a scalar that represents how a linear transformation changes a vector.
- Eigenvalue equation: AX = λX, where A is the matrix, λ is the eigenvalue, and X is the eigenvector.
- Properties:
- Scalar multiplication: If λ is an eigenvalue, then kλ is also an eigenvalue for any scalar k.
- Linear independence: Eigenvectors corresponding to distinct eigenvalues are linearly independent.
- Applications:
- Markov chains.
- Image compression.
- Data analysis.
Matrix Operations
- Matrix addition: A + B = [aij + bij].
