Homework Statement




Let {e1,e2,e3} be a basis for the vector space V, and [itex]T:V \rightarrow V[/itex] a linear transformation.

let f1 ;= e1 f2;=e1+e2 f3;=e1+e2+e3

Find the Matrix B of T with respect to {f1,f2,f3} given that the matrix with respect to {e1,e2,e3} is

[itex]\[ \left( \begin{array}{ccc}1 & 1 &1 \\1 & 1 & 0\\ 1 & 0 & 0\\\end{array} \right)^{-1}\][/itex]

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution




Let A be the matrax of the basis {f1,f2,f3}
A= [itex]\[ \left( \begin{array}{ccc}1 & 1 &1 \\0 & 1 & 1\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\\end{array} \right)\][/itex]
Than,

B= [itex]\[ \left( \begin{array}{ccc}1 & 1 &1 \\0 & 1 & 1\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\\end{array} \right)^{-1}\][/itex][itex]\[ \left( \begin{array}{ccc}1 & 1 &1 \\1 & 1 & 0\\ 1 & 0 & 0\\\end{array} \right)\][/itex][itex]\[ \left( \begin{array}{ccc}1 & 1 &1 \\0 & 1 & 1\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\\end{array} \right)\][/itex]


B=[itex]\[ \left( \begin{array}{ccc}0 & 0 &1 \\0 & 1 & 1\\ 1 & 1 & 1\\\end{array} \right)\][/itex]


Does this look allright?

there is an inverse sign, that you don't seem to carry later on

so based on the question we have the linear transform, in the e basis given by say:

[tex]u^e = T^e.v^e[/tex]

with
[tex]T^e=[/tex]
[tex]\[ \left( \begin{array}{ccc}1 & 1 &1 \\1 & 1 & 0\\ 1 & 0 & 0\\\end{array} \right)^{-1}\][/tex]

looks ok here, based on the definition of the basis, the matrix A transforms a vector from the f basis to the e basis, so
[tex]u^e = A.u^f[/tex]

and using the inverse
[tex]u^f = A^{-1}.u^e[/tex]

now looking at the transformation relation
[tex]u^f = A^{-1}u^e = A^{-1}T^e.v^e = A^{-1}T^e(Av^f) = (A^{-1}T^eA)v^f[/tex]

the matrix B in the f basis is
[tex]u^f = (A^{-1}T^eA)v^f = B v^f[/tex]

now unless I'm following wrong, it looks like you've dropped an inverse sign, and I'm not too sure how you simplify to get to the next line in any case...
