Frobenius Norm of a matrix

I have calculated that a matrix has a Frobenius norm of 1.45, however I cannot find any text on the web that states whether this is an ill-posed or well-posed indication. Is there a rule for Frobenius norms that directly relates to well- and ill-posed matrices?

Thanks

I assume by "ill posed" you mean poorly conditioned, i.e. potential numeric stability problems associated with inversion.

Like I said in your thread here:

https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/how-can-i-analyse-and-classify-a-matrix.931056/

it's the ratio of the largest singular value to smallest singular value that matters. I really struggle to imagine why you'd take that information and then ask a question about about adding up all the squared singular values, and asking what that sum (or the square root of that sum) tells us about condition number.

Perhaps it'd be prudent for you to make your way through the first 7 chapters of Linear Algebra Done Wrong:

https://www.math.brown.edu/~treil/papers/LADW/LADW.html

It would walk you through many of the fundamentals needed to connect the dots between these different ideas.

Not really need to go through an entire book for this. It's actually as comprehensive as you wrote here, which I was not aware of. However, the strange thing is that if the ratio between the smallest and largest values of the matrix is in the magnitude of 10^40, it defines an ill conditioned matrix, and the Max norm is very high, about 78. However, the Frobenius norm is "only" 1.5 , so I thought it was strange these two norm would deviate so much.
