Solving an equation with terms that require double summation and products

2 views (last 30 days)
I need to solve the following equation.
Opt.JPG
I wrote the following code based on the above equation, but I believe I have made a mistake as the final answer is large.
I have attached the *.mat file for reference.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Hi GS,
I reproduced your results and then calculated the equation using for loops, just to make sure, and got 1.8767e37, same as the second way. Anyway,
aij_2 = aij^2
can't really be correct since it squares the entire matrix as a matrix product, but both
aij_2 = aij.^2
and the for loop way of doing things proceed element-by-element.
Such a large result as 10^37, is that expected? The expression depends on the scaling of the matrix, i.e. if every element in the matrix were multiplied by 2, the result would be different. If the result is supposed to be a dimensionless condition number, I would think there would have to be some kind of normalization done on aij before using the expression that you have.
Here's Matlab cond:
cond(aij)
ans = 51.3232

Hi GS, the code looks good, although I think replacing ^0.5 with sqrt looks cleaner, and you don't need N
aij_2 = aij.^2;
y1 = sum(aij_2(:))
aii = diag(aij);
aii_2 = aii.^2;
y2 = 4*prod(aii_2);
K_A = (y1 + sqrt(y1^2-y2))/y2
I probably would have used
y1 = sum(sum(aij_2))
just by personal preference, since it emphasizes that there is a 2d sum, but that's neither here nor there.
Incidentally, abbreviating the supposed condition number K_A by c, then c is one of the solutions to the quadratic
y2*c^2 - 2*y1*c + 1 = 0
I wonder what that means?

Thank you for your valued response and confirmation of my maths.
I like you thinking with regards the quadratic equation! The paper discusses the "minimising" the condition number.
Unfortunately, no response from the author as of yet.

Hi GS, try
aij_2 = aij.^2
Since y1 and y2 are scalars, there are three dots in the last equation that you can drop. I usually do this because it's neater and provides an extra clue to what the variables are. That's a net savings of two dots, which you can use in another equation sometime.

Hi David,
Thank you for your input.
So for the above code, K_A = 6.1743e37.
And for the follwoing code as you suggested (I hope I got it right), K_A = 1.8767e37.
I am going to look into this further as I believe I am not getting the "double summation" and "product" of this series correct.
