Short Answer

Let R be a complex upper triangular nxn matrix with |rii|< for i,...,n . Show that

limtRt=0 ,,

meaning that the modulus of all entries of Rt approaches zero. Hint: We can write |R|(ln+U), for some positive real number |λ|<1 and an upper triangular U > 0 matrix with zeros on the diagonal. Exercises 47 and 48 are helpful.

limtRt=0

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Define Upper Triangular Matrix:

A triangular matrix with all components equal to below the main diagonal is called an upper triangular matrix. It's an element-based square matrix

Step 2: Upper triangular matrix with modulus of the entry:

Let R be a upper triangular matrix nxn with Rii<1 for i=1,...,n.Now consider λ, for

to be the maximum value of all Rii, for i=1,2,...,n

Therefore λ<1

Rλlre+U

is an upper triangular matrix such that uii=0 and uij=rijλ,if j>i, if we have

Un=0Now considerRtRtλtln+Ul AsRλln+Uλitnln+U+U2+L+Un-1 Also as λ<1,we get from calculus thatlimtλttn=0Then limtRt=0
