Problem 3:

edit

Problem Statement

edit

Use the Determinant of the Matrix of Components and the Gramian to verify the linear independence of the two vectors   and  .

 

 

Solution

edit
Determinant of the Matrix of Components
edit

The Matrix of components of the vectors   and   is

 

So the vectors   and   are linearly independent.

Gramian
edit

For vectors, the Gramian is defined as:

 

where:


 


For the given vectors, the dot products are:


 


 


 


 


So the Gramian matrix becomes:  

Finding the determinant of the Gramian matrix gives the Gramian:

 

So the vectors   and   are linearly independent.

Problem 4: Wronskian and Gramian

edit

Problem Statement

edit

Use both the Wronskian and the Gramain to find whether the following functions are linearly independent. Consider the domain of these functions to be [-1, +1] for the construction of the Gramian matrix.

 

 

Solution

edit

Wronskian:

 

Function is linearly independent if  

1)  

 
 
  so function is linearly independent.

2) 

 
 

  so function is linearly independent.


Gramian:
 

Function is linearly independent if  

1)  
 
 
 
 

  so function is linearly independent.



2)  
 
 
 
 

  so function is linearly independent.
