1 Matrix Condition Number

The condition numberMathworldPlanetmath for matrix inversionMathworldPlanetmath with respect to a matrix normMathworldPlanetmath of a square matrixMathworldPlanetmath A is defined by

κ(A)=AA-1,

if A is non-singular; and κ(A)=+ if A is singular.

The condition number is a measure of stability or sensitivity of a matrix (or the linear system it represents) to numerical operations. In other words, we may not be able to trust the results of computations on an ill-conditioned matrix.

Matrices with condition numbers near 1 are said to be well-conditioned. Matrices with condition numbers much greater than one (such as around 105 for a 5×5 Hilbert matrixMathworldPlanetmath) are said to be ill-conditioned.

If κ(A) is the condition number of A, then κ(A) measuresa sort of inverse distance from A to the set of singular matrices,normalized by A.Precisely, if A is invertible, and B-A<A-1-1,then B must also be invertible. On the other hand, in the case of the 2-norm,there always exists a singular matrix B such that B-A2=A-12-1(so the distance estimate is sharp).
