Keserupaan matriks
In linear algebra, two n-by-n matrices A and B are called similar if there exists an invertible n-by-n matrix P such that
A transformation A ↦ P−1AP is called a similarity transformation or conjugation of the matrix A. In the general linear group, similarity is therefore the same as conjugacy, and similar matrices are also called conjugate; however, in a given subgroup H of the general linear group, the notion of conjugacy may be more restrictive than similarity, since it requires that P be chosen to lie in H.
Motivating example
When defining a linear transformation, it can be the case that a change of basis can result in a simpler form of the same transformation. For example, the matrix representing a rotation in R3 when the axis of rotation is not aligned with the coordinate axis can be complicated to compute. If the axis of rotation were aligned with the positive z-axis, then it would simply be
Properties
Similarity is an equivalence relation on the space of square matrices.
Because matrices are similar if and only if they represent the same linear operator with respect to (possibly) different bases, similar matrices share all properties of their shared underlying operator:
- Rank
- Polinomial karakteristik, and attributes that can be derived from it:
- Determinan
- Teras
- Nilai-nilai eigen, and their algebraic multiplicities
- Geometric multiplicities of eigenvalues (but not the eigenspaces, which are transformed according to the base change matrix P used).
- Minimal polynomial
- Frobenius normal form
- Jordan normal form, up to a permutation of the Jordan blocks
- Index of nilpotence
- Elementary divisors, which form a complete set of invariants for similarity of matrices over a principal ideal domain
Because of this, for a given matrix A, one is interested in finding a simple "normal form" B which is similar to A—the study of A then reduces to the study of the simpler matrix B.
Similarity of matrices does not depend on the base field: if L is a field containing K as a subfield, and A and B are two matrices over K, then A and B are similar as matrices over K if and only if they are similar as matrices over L. This is so because the rational canonical form over K is also the rational canonical form over L. This means that one may use Jordan forms that only exist over a larger field to determine whether the given matrices are similar.
In the definition of similarity, if the matrix P can be chosen to be a matriks permutasi then A and B are permutation-similar; if P can be chosen to be a unitary matrix then A and B are unitarily equivalent. The spectral theorem says that every normal matrix is unitarily equivalent to some diagonal matrix. Specht's theorem states that two matrices are unitarily equivalent if and only if they satisfy certain trace equalities.
