In mathematics, the Gershgorin circle theorem may be used to bound the spectrum of a square matrix. It was first published by the Soviet mathematician Semyon Aronovich Gershgorin in 1931. The spelling of S. A. Gershgorin's name has been transliterated in several different ways, including Geršgorin, Gerschgorin, Gershgorin and Hershhorn/Hirschhorn. ==Statement and proof== Let be a complex matrix, with entries . For let be the sum of the absolute values of the non-diagonal entries in the -th row. Let be the closed disc centered at with radius . Such a disc is called a Gershgorin disc. Theorem: Every eigenvalue of lies within at least one of the Gershgorin discs ''Proof'': Let be an eigenvalue of and let x = (''x''''j'') be a corresponding eigenvector. Let ''i'' ∈ be chosen so that |''x''''i''| = max''j'' |''x''''j''|. (That is to say, choose i so that xi is the largest (in absolute value) number in the vector x) Then |''x''''i''| > 0, otherwise x = 0. Since x is an eigenvector, , and thus: : So, splitting the sum, we get : We may then divide both sides by ''x''''i'' (choosing ''i'' as we explained, we can be sure that ''x''''i'' ≠ 0) and take the absolute value to obtain : where the last inequality is valid because : Corollary: The eigenvalues of ''A'' must also lie within the Gershgorin discs ''C''''j'' corresponding to the columns of ''A''. ''Proof'': Apply the Theorem to ''A''T. Example For a diagonal matrix, the Gershgorin discs coincide with the spectrum. Conversely, if the Gershgorin discs coincide with the spectrum, the matrix is diagonal. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gershgorin circle theorem」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
