Matrix Norm


A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z overview

The matrix norm associated with a vector norm is given by

$\displaystyle \Vert A\Vert = \sup_{x\ne 0}\frac{\Vert Ax\Vert}{\Vert x\Vert}
= \max_{\Vert x\Vert=1} \Vert Ax\Vert\, .
$

In addition to the norm properties (positivity, homogeneity, subadditivity) we have

$\displaystyle \Vert AB\Vert \le \Vert A\Vert\Vert B\Vert\,
,
$

that is, the associated matrix norm is submultiplicative.
