projection


A linear transformation P:VV of a vector spaceMathworldPlanetmath V is called aprojection if it acts like the identityPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath on its image. Thiscondition can be more succinctly expressed by the equation

P2=P.(1)
Proposition 1

If P:VV is a projection, thenits image and the kernel are complementary subspaces, namely

V=kerPimgP.(2)

Proof. Suppose that P is a projection. Let vV be given, and set

u=v-Pv.

The projection condition (1) then impliesthat ukerP, and we can write v as the sum of an image andkernel vectors:

v=u+Pv.

This decomposition is unique, because theintersectionMathworldPlanetmath of the image and the kernel is the trivial subspacePlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath.Indeed, suppose that vV is in both the image and the kernel of P.Then, Pv=v and Pv=0, and hence v=0. QED

Conversely, every direct sumMathworldPlanetmath decomposition

V=V1V2

corresponds to a projection P:VV defined by

Pv={vvV10vV2

Specializing somewhat, suppose that the ground field is or and that V is equipped with a positive-definite innerproduct. In this setting we call an endomorphismPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathP:VV an orthogonal projection if it is self-dual

P=P,

in additionPlanetmathPlanetmath to satisfying the projection condition (1).

Proposition 2

The kernel and image of an orthogonal projection are orthogonal subspaces.

Proof. Let ukerP and vimgP be given. Since Pis self-dual we have

0=Pu,v=u,Pv=u,v.

QED

Thus we see that a orthogonal projection P projects a vV ontoPv in an orthogonalMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath fashion, i.e.

v-Pv,u=0

for all uimgP.
