[ noun ] a prediction made by extrapolating from past observations
Used in print (Kenneth Hoffman and Ray Kunze, Linear Al...)If the direct_sum decomposition ( a ) is valid , how can we get hold of the projections * * f associated with the decomposition ? The projection * * f will be the identity on * * f and zero on the other * * f . Thus the * * f are projections which correspond to some direct_sum decomposition of the space V . If * * f are the projections associated with the primary decomposition of T , then each * * f is a polynomial in T , and accordingly if a linear_operator U commutes with T then U commutes with each of the * * f i.e. , each subspace * * f is invariant under U . The reader should be familiar enough with projections by now so that he sees that * * f and in_general that * * f . Related terms |
