  Householder transformation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, a Householder transformation in 3-dimensional space is the reflection of a vector in a plane.
The Householder transformation was introduced in 1958 by Alston Scott Householder.
Householder reflections can be used to calculate QR decompositions by reflecting first one column of a matrix onto a multiple of a standard basis vector, calculating the transformation matrix, multiplying it with the original matrix and then recursing down the (i, i) minors of that product.

In the first challenge, the household estimates consistent with the 1990 census as enumerated included data only for the total number of U.S. households by 5-year age groups; specific details, such as type of household and marital status of householder, required to project the future household composition, were not available.
Since householders and spouses in married-couple families are limited to the population who are ever married, projections of married-couple families require projections of the marital status (never married and ever married) of the future household population.
The universe for female family households, male family households, and nonfamily households is the total population in households minus the population in married-couple households (husbands and wives).

 Reduction to lower (upper) semiseparable form
Finally, a Householder transformation has to be performed to the left to have a complete upper triangular semiseparable structure.
Note that the computational complexity of applying the Householder transformations is the same as of the standard procedure that reduces matrices into bidiagonal form using Householder transformations.
The purpose of these Givens transformations is to chase the bulge on the subdiagonal upwards while maintaining the upper triangular semiseparable structure in the upper part of the matrix.

 QR decomposition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are several methods for actually computing the QR decomposition, such as by means of Givens rotations, Householder transformations, or the Gram-Schmidt decomposition.
A Householder reflection (or Householder transformation) is a transformation that takes a vector and reflects it about some plane.
This can be used to gradually transform an m-by-n matrix A to upper triangular form.

In part b you were asked to find a Householder transformation that annihilates the third component of the vector a.
In parts d and e you were asked whether or not a Householder transformation could ever be the same as an elementary elimination matrix or a Givens rotation when annihilating a given nonzero component of a vector.
In both cases the answer is no because a Householder transformation is represented by a symmetric matrix while the other 2 are represented by nonsymmtric matrices.

 Householder method
Householder method is method used for reducing the n-dimensional square matrix to an upper Hessenberg matrix, or into tridiagonal form, if input matrix is Hermitean.
Class implements two types of algorithms, depending of user input, one does the transformation considering column by column of input matrix, and the other one takes row by row.
Each transformation in algorithm annihilates the required part of a matrix column/row, so procedure is carried out by the n-2 orthogonal transformations.

Superficially, the method resembles a Galerkin formulation which has its origin in a completely different philosophy, namely in demanding that any subset of a complete set used to expand an exact solution must be orthogonal to those states not included in the expansion - the residuals.
The product of Householder transformations that leads to a tridiagonal form is a similarity transformation, and thus eigenvalues of the tridiagonal matrix are the same as the original matrix.

it is found by applying successive Householder transformations (Q) which reduce A to upper triangular form without changing the norm of the columns of A or the vector b.
An attractive feature of the unitary Householder transformations is that when each parameter is eliminated ("solved for") column pivoting allows the selection of that parameter which gives the maximum reduction in the current value of

 Mailgate: sci.math.num-analysis: shortcut to tridiagonal?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The square matrix A = S' S (prime denotes transpose) can be reduced to tridiagonal form by Householder transformations, from which one can proceed to get eigenvalues in conventional fashion.
But for large S (many rows and columns, that is), the multiply to get A is killing me computationally.
Is there a name for the technique, if any, that one can use to find the tridiagonal form of A, given just S? Some kind of modified Householder transformation?
