Find Transition Matrices for Pd to c Using Given Matrices - Step by Step Guide"

Click For Summary

Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around finding transition matrices between two given matrices, denoted as Pd to c, using row reduction techniques. The matrices provided are d and c, with d being a 3x3 matrix and c representing the identity matrix.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • The original poster attempts to find the transition matrix by setting up an augmented matrix and performing row reduction. Some participants question the correctness of the approach and whether the resulting matrix satisfies the condition Pd to c d = c.

Discussion Status

The discussion is ongoing, with participants checking the validity of the original poster's method and exploring the implications of their findings. There is an indication of uncertainty regarding the correctness of the transition matrix derived.

Contextual Notes

Participants note the importance of confirming that the transition matrix correctly transforms d into c, which is a key assumption in the problem setup.

Homework Statement


Given the 2 Matrices, find the transition matrices, Pd to c

d =
[ 1 1 0 ]
[ 0 1 -1 ]
[ 1 1 1 ]

c=
[ 1 0 0 ]
[ 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 0 1 ]

Homework Equations


Pd to c = [d] | [c]

The Attempt at a Solution


Pd to c = [d] | [c]

[ 1 1 0 | 1 0 0 ]
[ 0 1 -1 | 0 1 0 ]
[ 1 1 1 | 0 0 1 ]

The process of getting the transition matrix involves row reducing until we have the identity matrix on the left hand side. The right hand side will then be = the transition matrix.

Transition matrix =

[ 2 -1 -1 ]
[ -1 1 1 ]
[ -1 0 1 ]

Do you have a question?
 
Just checking if I'm doing it correctly. Sorry, I should have stated this in my original post.
 
Have you checked that Pd to c d = c?
