定理描述
编辑A 矩阵 in which all entries are positive real numbers is here called positive and a matrix whose entries are non-negative real numbers is here called non-negative. The eigenvalues of a real square matrix A are complex numbers and collectively they make up the spectrum of the matrix. The exponential growth rate of the matrix powers Ak as k → ∞ is controlled by the eigenvalue of A with the largest absolute value. The Perron–Frobenius theorem describes the properties of the leading eigenvalue and of the corresponding eigenvectors when A is a non-negative real square matrix. Early results were due to Oskar Perron (1907) and concerned positive matrices. Later, Georg Frobenius (1912) found their extension to certain classes of non-negative matrices.
Positive matrices
编辑令 A = (aij) 是一个 n × n 大小的正实数矩阵: 对于所有1 ≤ i, j ≤ n,aij > 0。那么以下几条陈述成立:
- 存在一个正实数r,称作贝隆根或者是贝隆-弗罗贝尼乌斯特征值,使得r是矩阵A的特征值,并且比A的其他特征值λ(可能是复数)的绝对值要严格地大,|λ| < r。 因此,A的谱半径 ρ(A) = r.
- The Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue is simple: r is a simple root of the characteristic polynomial of A. Consequently, the eigenspace associated to r is one-dimensional. (The same is true for the left eigenspace, i.e., the eigenspace for AT.)
- A存在一个与特征值r对应的特征向量v = (v1,…,vn),使得v的所有项均为正数: A v = r v, 对于1 ≤ i ≤ n,vi > 0。(同样, 也有一个所有项均为正数的左特征向量 w : wT A = r wT, wi > 0.)
- There are no other positive (moreover non-negative) eigenvectors except positive multiples of v (respectively, left eigenvectors except w), i.e., all other eigenvectors must have at least one negative or non-real component.
- , where the left and right eigenvectors for A are normalized so that wTv = 1. Moreover, the matrix v wT is the projection onto the eigenspace corresponding to r. This projection is called the Perron projection.
- Collatz–Wielandt formula: for all non-negative non-zero vectors x, let f(x) be the minimum value of [Ax]i / xi taken over all those i such that xi ≠ 0. Then f is a real valued function whose maximum is the Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue.
- A "Min-max" Collatz–Wielandt formula takes a form similar to the one above: for all strictly positive vectors x, let g(x) be the maximum value of [Ax]i / xi taken over i. Then g is a real valued function whose minimum is the Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue.
- The Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue satisfies the inequalities
These claims can be found in Meyer[5] chapter 8 claims 8.2.11-15 page 667 and exercises 8.2.5,7,9 pages 668-669.
The left and right eigenvectors v and w are usually normalized so that the sum of their components is equal to 1; in this case, they are sometimes called stochastic eigenvectors.
Non-negative matrices
编辑An extension of the theorem to matrices with non-negative entries is also available. In order to highlight the similarities and differences between the two cases the following points are to be noted: every non-negative matrix can be obviously obtained as a limit of positive matrices, thus one obtains the existence of an eigenvector with non-negative components; obviously the corresponding eigenvalue will be non-negative and greater or equal in absolute value than all other eigenvalues.[6][7] However, the simple examples
show that for non-negative matrices there may exist eigenvalues of the same absolute value as the maximal one ((1) and (−1) – eigenvalues of the first matrix); moreover the maximal eigenvalue may not be a simple root of the characteristic polynomial, can be zero and the corresponding eigenvector (1,0) is not strictly positive (second example). So it may seem that most properties are broken for non-negative matrices, however Frobenius found the right way.
The key feature of theory in the non-negative case is to find some special subclass of non-negative matrices— irreducible matrices— for which a non-trivial generalization is possible. Namely, although eigenvalues attaining maximal absolute value may not be unique, the structure of maximal eigenvalues is under control: they have the form ei2πl/hr, where h is some integer number—period of matrix, r is a real strictly positive eigenvalue, l = 0, 1, ..., h − 1. The eigenvector corresponding to r has strictly positive components (in contrast with the general case of non-negative matrices, where components are only non-negative). Also all such eigenvalues are simple roots of the characteristic polynomial. Further properties are described below.
Classification of matrices
编辑Let A be a square matrix (not necessarily positive or even real). The matrix A is irreducible if any of the following equivalent properties holds.
Definition 1 : A does not have non-trivial invariant coordinate subspaces. Here a non-trivial coordinate subspace means a linear subspace spanned by any proper subset of basis vectors. More explicitly, for any linear subspace spanned by basis vectors ei1 , ..., eik, n > k > 0 its image under the action of A is not contained in the same subspace.
Definition 2: A cannot be conjugated into block upper triangular form by a permutation matrix P:
where E and G are non-trivial (i.e. of size greater than zero) square matrices.
If A is non-negative other definitions exist:
Definition 3: For every pair of indices i and j, there exists a natural number m such that (Am)ij is not equal to 0.
Definition 4: One can associate with a matrix A a certain directed graph GA. It has exactly n vertices, where n is size of A, and there is an edge from vertex i to vertex j precisely when Aij > 0. Then the matrix A is irreducible if and only if its associated graph GA is strongly connected.
A matrix is reducible if it is not irreducible.
Let A be non-negative. Fix an index i and define the period of index i to be the greatest common divisor of all natural numbers m such that (Am)ii > 0. When A is irreducible, the period of every index is the same and is called the period of A. In fact, when A is irreducible, the period can be defined as the greatest common divisor of the lengths of the closed directed paths in GA (see Kitchens[8] page 16). The period is also called the index of imprimitivity (Meyer[5] page 674) or the order of cyclicity.
If the period is 1, A is aperiodic.
A matrix A is primitive if it is non-negative and its mth power is positive for some natural number m (i.e. the same m works for all pairs of indices). It can be proved that primitive matrices are the same as irreducible aperiodic non-negative matrices.
A positive square matrix is primitive and a primitive matrix is irreducible. All statements of the Perron–Frobenius theorem for positive matrices remain true for primitive matrices. However, a general non-negative irreducible matrix A may possess several eigenvalues whose absolute value is equal to the spectral radius of A, so the statements need to be correspondingly modified. Actually the number of such eigenvalues is exactly equal to the period. Results for non-negative matrices were first obtained by Frobenius in 1912.
Perron–Frobenius theorem for irreducible matrices
编辑Let A be an irreducible non-negative n × n matrix with period h and spectral radius ρ(A) = r. Then the following statements hold.
- The number r is a positive real number and it is an eigenvalue of the matrix A, called the Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue.
- The Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue r is simple. Both right and left eigenspaces associated with r are one-dimensional.
- A has a left eigenvector v with eigenvalue r whose components are all positive.
- Likewise, A has a right eigenvector w with eigenvalue r whose components are all positive.
- The only eigenvectors whose components are all positive are those associated with the eigenvalue r.
- Matrix A has exactly h (where h is the period) complex eigenvalues with absolute value r. Each of them is a simple root of the characteristic polynomial and is the product of r with an hth root of unity.
- Let ω = 2π/h. Then the matrix A is similar to eiωA, consequently the spectrum of A is invariant under multiplication by eiω (corresponding to the rotation of the complex plane by the angle ω).
- If h > 1 then there exists a permutation matrix P such that
- where the blocks along the main diagonal are zero square matrices.
- 9. Collatz–Wielandt formula: for all non-negative non-zero vectors x let f(x) be the minimum value of [Ax]i / xi taken over all those i such that xi ≠ 0. Then f is a real valued function whose maximum is the Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue.
- 10. The Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue satisfies the inequalities
The matrix shows that the blocks on the diagonal may be of different sizes, the matrices Aj need not be square, and h need not divide n.
Further properties
编辑Let A be an irreducible non-negative matrix, then:
- (I+A)n−1 is a positive matrix. (Meyer[5] claim 8.3.5 p. 672).
- Wielandt's theorem. If |B|<A, then ρ(B)≤ρ(A). If equality holds (i.e. if μ=ρ(A)eiφ is eigenvalue for B), then B = eiφ D AD−1 for some diagonal unitary matrix D (i.e. diagonal elements of D equals to eiΘl, non-diagonal are zero).[9]
- If some power Aq is reducible, then it is completely reducible, i.e. for some permutation matrix P, it is true that: , where Ai are irreducible matrices having the same maximal eigenvalue. The number of these matrices d is the greatest common divisor of q and h, where h is period of A.[10]
- If c(x)=xn+ck1 xn-k1 +ck2 xn-k2 + ... + cks xn-ks is the characteristic polynomial of A in which the only nonzero coefficients are listed, then the period of A equals to the greatest common divisor for k1, k2, ... , ks.[11]
- Cesàro averages: where the left and right eigenvectors for A are normalized so that wtv = 1. Moreover the matrix v wt is the spectral projection corresponding to r - Perron projection.[12]
- Let r be the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue, then the adjoint matrix for (r-A) is positive.[13]
- If A has at least one non-zero diagonal element, then A is primitive.[14]
Also:
- If 0 ≤ A < B, the rA ≤ rB, moreover, if A is irreducible, then the inequality is strict: rA < rB.
One of the definitions of primitive matrix requires A to be non-negative and there exists m, such that Am is positive. One may one wonder how big m can be, depending on the size of A. The following answers this question.
- Assume A is non-negative primitive matrix of size n, then An2-2n+2 is positive. Moreover there exists a matrix M given below, such that Mk remains not positive (just non-negative) for all k< n2-2n+2, in particular (Mn2-2n+1)11=0.
Applications
编辑Numerous books have been written on the subject of non-negative matrices, and Perron–Frobenius theory is invariably a central feature. The following examples given below only scratch the surface of its vast application domain.
Non-negative matrices
编辑The Perron–Frobenius theorem does not apply directly to non-negative matrices. Nevertheless any reducible square matrix A may be written in upper-triangular block form (known as the normal form of a reducible matrix)[16]
- PAP−1 =
where P is a permutation matrix and each Bi is a square matrix that is either irreducible or zero. Now if A is non-negative then so are all the Bi and the spectrum of A is just the union of their spectra. Therefore many of the spectral properties of A may be deduced by applying the theorem to the irreducible Bi.
For example the Perron root is the maximum of the ρ(Bi). While there will still be eigenvectors with non-negative components it is quite possible that none of these will be positive.
Stochastic matrices
编辑A row (column) stochastic matrix is a square matrix each of whose rows (columns) consists of non-negative real numbers whose sum is unity. The theorem cannot be applied directly to such matrices because they need not be irreducible.
If A is row-stochastic then the column vector with each entry 1 is an eigenvector corresponding to the eigenvalue 1, which is also ρ(A) by the remark above. It might not be the only eigenvalue on the unit circle: and the associated eigenspace can be multi-dimensional. If A is row-stochastic and irreducible then the Perron projection is also row-stochastic and all its rows are equal.
Algebraic graph theory
编辑The theorem has particular use in algebraic graph theory. The "underlying graph" of a nonnegative n-square matrix is the graph with vertices numbered 1, ..., n and arc ij if and only if Aij ≠ 0. If the underlying graph of such a matrix is strongly connected, then the matrix is irreducible, and thus the theorem applies. In particular, the adjacency matrix of a strongly connected graph is irreducible.[17][18]
Finite Markov chains
编辑The theorem has a natural interpretation in the theory of finite Markov chains (where it is the matrix-theoretic equivalent of the convergence of an irreducible finite Markov chain to its stationary distribution, formulated in terms of the transition matrix of the chain; see, for example, the article on the subshift of finite type).
Compact operators
编辑More generally, it can be extended to the case of non-negative compact operators, which, in many ways, resemble finite-dimensional matrices. These are commonly studied in physics, under the name of transfer operators, or sometimes Ruelle–Perron–Frobenius operators (after David Ruelle). In this case, the leading eigenvalue corresponds to the thermodynamic equilibrium of a dynamical system, and the lesser eigenvalues to the decay modes of a system that is not in equilibrium. Thus, the theory offers a way of discovering the arrow of time in what would otherwise appear to be reversible, deterministic dynamical processes, when examined from the point of view of point-set topology.[19]
Proof methods
编辑A common thread in many proofs is the Brouwer fixed point theorem.[來源請求] Another popular method is that of Wielandt (1950). He used the Collatz–Wielandt formula described above to extend and clarify Frobenius's work.[20] Another proof is based on the spectral theory[21] from which part of the arguments are borrowed.
Perron root is strictly maximal eigenvalue for positive (and primitive) matrices
编辑Case: If A is a positive (or more generally primitive) matrix, then there exists a real positive eigenvalue r (Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue or Perron root), which is strictly greater in absolute value than all other eigenvalues, hence r is the spectral radius of A.
That claim is wrong for general non-negative irreducible matrices, which have h eigenvalues with the same absolute eigenvalue as r, where h is the period of A.
Proof for positive matrices
编辑Let A be a positive matrix, assume that its spectral radius ρ(A) = 1 (otherwise consider A/ρ(A)). Hence, there exists an eigenvalue λ on the unit circle, and all the other eigenvalues are less or equal 1 in absolute value. Assume that λ ≠ 1. Then there exists a positive integer m such that Am is a positive matrix and the real part of λm is negative. Let ε be half the smallest diagonal entry of Am and set T = Am − ε1 which is yet another positive matrix. Moreover if Ax = λx then Amx = λmx thus λm − ε is an eigenvalue of T. Because of the choice of m this point lies outside the unit disk consequently ρ(T) > 1. On the other hand all the entries in T are positive and less than or equal to those in Am so by Gelfand's formula ρ(T) ≤ ρ(Am) ≤ ρ(A)m = 1. This contradiction means that λ=1 and there can be no other eigenvalues on the unit circle.
Absolutely the same arguments can be applied to the case of primitive matrices, after one just need to mention the following simple lemma, which clarifies the properties of primitive matrices
Lemma
编辑Given a non-negative A, assume there exists m, such that Am is positive, then Am+1, Am+2, Am+3,... are all positive.
Am+1= A Am, so it can have zero element only if some row of A is entirely zero, but in this case the same row of Am will be zero.
Applying the same arguments as above for primitive matrices, prove the main claim.
Power method and the positive eigenpair
编辑Case: For a positive (or more generally irreducible non-negative) matrix A the dominant eigenvector is real and strictly positive (for non-negative A respectively non-negative.)
It can be argued by the power method, which states that for a sufficiently generic (in the sense below) matrix A the sequence of vectors bk+1=Abk / | Abk | converges to the eigenvector with the maximum eigenvalue. (The initial vector b0 can be chosen arbitrarily except for some measure zero set). Starting with a non-negative vector b0 produces the sequence of non-negative vectors bk. Hence the limiting vector is also non-negative. By the power method this limiting vector is the dominant eigenvector for A, proving the assertion. The corresponding eigenvalue is non-negative.
The proof requires two additional arguments. First, the power method converges for matrices which do not have several eigenvalues of the same absolute value as the maximal one. The previous section's argument guarantees this.
Second, to ensure strict positivity of all of the components of the eigenvector for the case of irreducible matrices. This follows from the following fact, which is of independent interest:
- Lemma: given a positive (or more generally irreducible non-negative) matrix A and v as any non-negative eigenvector for A, then it is necessarily strictly positive and the corresponding eigenvalue is also strictly positive.
Proof. One of the definitions of irreducibility for non-negative matrices is that for all indexes i,j there exists m, such that (Am)ij is strictly positive. Given a non-negative eigenvector v, and that at least one of its components say j-th is strictly positive, the corresponding eigenvalue is strictly positive, indeed, given n such that (An)ii >0, hence: rnvi = Anvi >= (An)iivi >0. Hence r is strictly positive. The eigenvector is strict positivity. Then given m, such that (Am)ij >0, hence: rmvj = (Amv)j >= (Am)ijvi >0, hence vj is strictly positive, i.e., the eigenvector is strictly positive.
Multiplicity one
编辑The proof that the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue is a simple root of the characteristic polynomial is also elementary. The arguments here are close to those in Meyer.[5]
Case: The eigenspace associated to Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue r is one-dimensional.
Given a strictly positive eigenvector v corresponding to r and another eigenvector w with the same eigenvalue. (Vector w can be chosen to be real, because A and r are both real, so the null space of A-r has a basis consisting of real vectors). Assuming at least one of the components of w is positive (otherwise multiply w by -1). Given maximal possible α such that u=v- α w is non-negative, then one of the components of u is zero, otherwise α is not maximum. Vector u is an eigenvector. It is non-negative, hence by the lemma described in the previous section non-negativity implies strict positivity for any eigenvector. On the other hand as above at least one component of u is zero. The contradiction implies that w does not exist.
Case: There are no Jordan cells corresponding to the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue r and all other eigenvalues which have the same absolute value.
If there is a Jordan cell, then the infinity norm ||(A/r)k||∞ tends to infinity for k → ∞ , but that contradicts the existence of the positive eigenvector.
Given r=1, or A/r. Letting v be a Perron-Frobenius strictly positive eigenvector, so Av=v, then:
So ||Ak||∞ is bounded for all k. This gives another proof that there are no eigenvalues which have greater absolute value than Perron-Frobenius one. It also contradicts the existence of the Jordan cell for any eigenvalue which has absolute value equal to 1 (in particular for the Perron-Frobenius one), because existence of the Jordan cell implies that ||Ak||∞ is unbounded. For a two by two matrix:
hence ||Jk||∞ = |k+λ| (for |λ|=1), so it tends to infinity when k does so. Since ||Jk|| = ||C-1 AkC ||, then || Ak || >= ||Jk||/ ( ||C−1|| || C ||), so it also tends to infinity. The resulting contradiction implies that there are no Jordan cells for the corresponding eigenvalues.
Combining the two claims above reveals that the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue r is simple root of the characteristic polynomial. In the case of nonprimitive matrices, there exist other eigenvalues which have the same absolute value as r. The same claim is true for them, but requires more work.
No other non-negative eigenvectors
编辑Case: Given positive (or more generally irreducible non-negative matrix) A, the Perron-Frobenius eigenvector is the only (up to multiplication by constant) non-negative eigenvector for A.
Other eigenvectors should contain negative, or complex components. Since eigenvectors for different eigenvalues are orthogonal in some sense, but two positive eigenvectors cannot be orthogonal, so they must correspond to the same eigenvalue, but the eigenspace for the Perron-Frobenius is one dimensional.
Assuming there exists an eigenpair (λ, y) for A, such that vector y is positive, and given (r, x), where x - is the right Perron-Frobenius eigenvector for A (i.e. eigenvector for At), then r xt y = (xt A) y= xt (A y)=λ xt y, also xt y >0, so one has: r=λ. Since the eigenspace for the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue r is one dimensional, non-negative eigenvector y is a multiple of the Perron-Frobenius one.[22]
Collatz–Wielandt formula
编辑Case: Given a positive (or more generally irreducible non-negative matrix) A, for all non-negative non-zero vectors x and f(x) as the minimum value of [Ax]i / xi taken over all those i such that xi ≠ 0, then f is a real valued function whose maximum is the Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue r.
Here, r is attained for x taken to be the Perron-Frobenius eigenvector v. The proof requires that values f on the other vectors are less or equal. Given a vector x. Let ξ=f(x), so 0<= ξx <=Ax and w to be the right eigenvector for A, then wt ξx <= wt (Ax) = (wt A)x = r wt x . Hence ξ<=r.[23]
Perron projection as a limit: Ak/rk
编辑Case: Given positive (or more generally primitive) matrix A, and r its Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue, then:
- There exists a limit Ak/rk for k → ∞, denote it by P.
- P is a projection operator: P2=P, which commutes with A: AP=PA.
- The image of P is one-dimensional and spanned by the Perron-Frobenius eigenvector v (respectively for Pt—by the Perron-Frobenius eigenvector w for At).
- P= v wt, where v,w are normalized such that w^t v = 1.
- Hence P is a positive operator.
Hence P is a spectral projection for the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue r, and is called the Perron projection. The above assertion is not true for general non-negative irreducible matrices.
Actually the claims above (except claim 5) are valid for any matrix M such that there exists an eigenvalue r which is strictly greater than the other eigenvalues in absolute value and is the simple root of the characteristic polynomial. (These requirements hold for primitive matrices as above).
Given that M is diagonalizable, M is conjugate to a diagonal matrix with eigenvalues r1, ... , rn on the diagonal (denote r1=r). The matrix Mk/rk will be conjugate (1, (r2/r)k, ... , (rn/r)k), which tends to (1,0,0,...,0), for k → ∞, so the limit exists. The same method works for general M (without assuming that M is diagonalizable).
The projection and commutativity properties are elementary corollaries of the definition: M Mk/rk= Mk/rk M ; P2 = lim M2k/r2k=P. The third fact is also elementary: M (P u)= M lim Mk/rk u = lim r Mk+1/rk+1 u, so taking the limit yields M (P u)=r (P u), so image of P lies in the r-eigenspace for M, which is one-dimensional by the assumptions.
Denoting by v, r-eigenvector for M (by w for Mt). Columns of P are multiples of v, because the image of P is spanned by it. Respectively, rows of w. So P takes a form (a v wt), for some a. Hence its trace equals to (a wt v). Trace of projector equals the dimension of its image. It was proved before that it is not more than one-dimensional. From the definition one sees that P acts identically on the r-eigenvector for M. So it is one-dimensional. So choosing (wt v)=1, implies P=v wt.
Inequalities for Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue
编辑For any non-nonegative matrix A its Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue r satisfies the inequality:
This is not specific to non-negative matrices: for any matrix A with eigenvalue λ it is true that . This is an immediate corollary of the Gershgorin circle theorem. However another proof is more direct:
Any matrix induced norm satisfies the inequality ||A|| ≥ |λ| for any eigenvalue λ, because ||A|| ≥ ||Ax||/||x|| = ||λx||/||x|| = |λ|. The infinity norm of a matrix is the maximum of row sums: Hence the desired inequality is exactly ||A||∞ ≥ |λ| applied to non-negative matrix A.
Another inequality is:
This fact is specific to non-negative matrices; for general matrices there is nothing similar. Given that A is positive (not just non-negative), then there exists a positive eigenvector w such that Aw = rw and the smallest component of w (say wi) is 1. Then r = (Aw)i ≥ the sum of the numbers in row i of A. Thus the minimum row sum gives a lower bound for r and this observation can be extended to all non-negative matrices by continuity.
Another way to argue it is via the Collatz-Wielandt formula. One takes the vector x = (1, 1, ..., 1) and immediately obtains the inequality.
Further proofs
编辑Perron projection
编辑The proof now proceeds using spectral decomposition. The trick here is to split the Perron root from the other eigenvalues. The spectral projection associated with the Perron root is called the Perron projection and it enjoys the following property:
Case: The Perron projection of an irreducible non-negative square matrix is a positive matrix.
Perron's findings and also (1)–(5) of the theorem are corollaries of this result. The key point is that a positive projection always has rank one. This means that if A is an irreducible non-negative square matrix then the algebraic and geometric multiplicities of its Perron root are both one. Also if P is its Perron projection then AP = PA = ρ(A)P so every column of P is a positive right eigenvector of A and every row is a positive left eigenvector. Moreover if Ax = λx then PAx = λPx = ρ(A)Px which means Px = 0 if λ ≠ ρ(A). Thus the only positive eigenvectors are those associated with ρ(A). If A is a primitive matrix with ρ(A) = 1 then it can be decomposed as P ⊕ (1 − P)A so that An = P + (1 − P)An. As n increases the second of these terms decays to zero leaving P as the limit of An as n → ∞.
The power method is a convenient way to compute the Perron projection of a primitive matrix. If v and w are the positive row and column vectors that it generates then the Perron projection is just wv/vw. It should be noted that the spectral projections aren't neatly blocked as in the Jordan form. Here they are overlaid and each generally has complex entries extending to all four corners of the square matrix. Nevertheless they retain their mutual orthogonality which is what facilitates the decomposition.
Peripheral projection
编辑The analysis when A is irreducible and non-negative is broadly similar. The Perron projection is still positive but there may now be other eigenvalues of modulus ρ(A) that negate use of the power method and prevent the powers of (1 − P)A decaying as in the primitive case whenever ρ(A) = 1. So enter the peripheral projection which is the spectral projection of A corresponding to all the eigenvalues that have modulus ρ(A) .... Case: The peripheral projection of an irreducible non-negative square matrix is a non-negative matrix with a positive diagonal.
Cyclicity
编辑Suppose in addition that ρ(A) = 1 and A has h eigenvalues on the unit circle. If P is the peripheral projection then the matrix R = AP = PA is non-negative and irreducible, Rh = P, and the cyclic group P, R, R2, ...., Rh−1 represents the harmonics of A. The spectral projection of A at the eigenvalue λ on the unit circle is given by the formula . All of these projections (including the Perron projection) have the same positive diagonal, moreover choosing any one of them and then taking the modulus of every entry invariably yields the Perron projection. Some donkey work is still needed in order to establish the cyclic properties (6)–(8) but it's essentially just a matter of turning the handle. The spectral decomposition of A is given by A = R ⊕ (1 − P)A so the difference between An and Rn is An − Rn = (1 − P)An representing the transients of An which eventually decay to zero. P may be computed as the limit of Anh as n → ∞.
Caveats
编辑The matrices L = , P = , T = , M = provide simple examples of what can go wrong if the necessary conditions are not met. It is easily seen that the Perron and peripheral projections of L are both equal to P, thus when the original matrix is reducible the projections may lose non-negativity and there is no chance of expressing them as limits of its powers. The matrix T is an example of a primitive matrix with zero diagonal. If the diagonal of an irreducible non-negative square matrix is non-zero then the matrix must be primitive but this example demonstrates that the converse is false. M is an example of a matrix with several missing spectral teeth. If ω = eiπ/3 then ω6 = 1 and the eigenvalues of M are {1,ω2,ω3,ω4} so ω and ω5 are both absent.[來源請求]
Terminology
编辑A problem that causes confusion is a lack of standardisation in the definitions. For example, some authors use the terms strictly positive and positive to mean > 0 and ≥ 0 respectively. In this article positive means > 0 and non-negative means ≥ 0. Another vexed area concerns decomposability and reducibility: irreducible is an overloaded term. For avoidance of doubt a non-zero non-negative square matrix A such that 1 + A is primitive is sometimes said to be connected. Then irreducible non-negative square matrices and connected matrices are synonymous.[24]
The nonnegative eigenvector is often normalized so that the sum of its components is equal to unity; in this case, the eigenvector is the vector of a probability distribution and is sometimes called a stochastic eigenvector.
Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue and dominant eigenvalue are alternative names for the Perron root. Spectral projections are also known as spectral projectors and spectral idempotents. The period is sometimes referred to as the index of imprimitivity or the order of cyclicity.
