System m linear equations c n unknown is called system of linear homogeneous equations if all free terms are equal to zero. Such a system looks like:

where and ij (i = 1, 2, …, m; j = 1, 2, …, n) - given numbers; x i- unknown.

Linear system homogeneous equations always compatible, because r(A) = r(). It always has at least zero ( trivial) solution (0; 0; ...; 0).

Let us consider under what conditions homogeneous systems have nonzero solutions.

Theorem 1. A system of linear homogeneous equations has nonzero solutions if and only if the rank of its main matrix r less than number unknown n, i.e. r < n.

one). Let the system of linear homogeneous equations have a nonzero solution. Since the rank cannot exceed the size of the matrix, it is obvious that rn. Let be r = n. Then one of the minors of size n n different from zero. Therefore, the corresponding system of linear equations has a unique solution: , , . Hence, there are no solutions other than trivial ones. So, if there is a non-trivial solution, then r < n.

2). Let be r < n. Then a homogeneous system, being consistent, is indefinite. Hence, it has an infinite number of solutions, i.e. also has non-zero solutions.

Consider a homogeneous system n linear equations c n unknown:

(2)

Theorem 2. homogeneous system n linear equations c n unknowns (2) has nonzero solutions if and only if its determinant is equal to zero: = 0.

If system (2) has a non-zero solution, then = 0. For at , the system has only a unique zero solution. If = 0, then the rank r the main matrix of the system is less than the number of unknowns, i.e. r < n. And, therefore, the system has an infinite number of solutions, i.e. also has non-zero solutions.

Denote the solution of system (1) X 1 = k 1 , X 2 = k 2 , …, x n = k n as a string .

Solutions to a system of linear homogeneous equations have the following properties:

1. If the string is a solution to system (1), then the string is also a solution to system (1).

2. If the lines and are solutions of system (1), then for any values with 1 and with 2 their linear combination is also a solution to system (1).

You can check the validity of these properties by directly substituting them into the equations of the system.

It follows from the formulated properties that any linear combination of solutions to a system of linear homogeneous equations is also a solution to this system.

System of linearly independent solutions e 1 , e 2 , …, e r called fundamental, if each solution of system (1) is a linear combination of these solutions e 1 , e 2 , …, e r.

Theorem 3. If rank r the matrix of coefficients for the variables of the system of linear homogeneous equations (1) is less than the number of variables n, then any fundamental system of solutions to system (1) consists of n–r solutions.

So common decision system of linear homogeneous equations (1) has the form:

where e 1 , e 2 , …, e r is any fundamental system of solutions to system (9), with 1 , with 2 , …, with p- arbitrary numbers, R = n–r.

Theorem 4. General system solution m linear equations c n unknowns is equal to the sum common solution the corresponding system of linear homogeneous equations (1) and an arbitrary particular solution of this system (1).

Example. Solve the system

Decision. For this system m = n= 3. Determinant

by Theorem 2, the system has only a trivial solution: x = y = z = 0.

Example. 1) Find general and particular solutions of the system

2) Find fundamental system solutions.

Decision. 1) For this system m = n= 3. Determinant

by Theorem 2, the system has nonzero solutions.

Since there is only one independent equation in the system

x + y – 4z = 0,

then from it we express x =4z- y. From where we get an infinite set of solutions: (4 z- y, y, z) is the general solution of the system.

At z= 1, y= -1, we get one particular solution: (5, -1, 1). Putting z= 3, y= 2, we get the second particular solution: (10, 2, 3), etc.

2) In the general solution (4 z- y, y, z) variables y and z are free, and the variable X- dependent on them. In order to find the fundamental system of solutions, we assign values ​​to the free variables: first y = 1, z= 0, then y = 0, z= 1. We obtain particular solutions (-1, 1, 0), (4, 0, 1), which form the fundamental system of solutions.

Homogeneous systems of linear algebraic equations

Within the lessons Gauss method and Incompatible systems/systems with a common solution we considered inhomogeneous systems of linear equations, where free member(which is usually on the right) at least one of the equations was different from zero.
And now, after a good warm-up with matrix rank, we will continue to polish the technique elementary transformations on the homogeneous system of linear equations.
According to the first paragraphs, the material may seem boring and ordinary, but this impression is deceptive. In addition to further development of technical methods, there will be many new information, so please try not to neglect the examples in this article.

What is a homogeneous system of linear equations?

The answer suggests itself. A system of linear equations is homogeneous if the free term everyone system equation is zero. For example:

It is quite clear that homogeneous system is always consistent, that is, it always has a solution. And, first of all, the so-called trivial decision . Trivial, for those who do not understand the meaning of the adjective at all, means bespontovoe. Not academically, of course, but intelligibly =) ... Why beat around the bush, let's find out if this system has any other solutions:

Example 1

Decision: to solve a homogeneous system it is necessary to write system matrix and with the help of elementary transformations bring it to a stepped form. Note that there is no need to write down the vertical bar and zero column of free members here - after all, whatever you do with zeros, they will remain zero:

(1) The first row was added to the second row, multiplied by -2. The first line was added to the third line, multiplied by -3.

(2) The second line was added to the third line, multiplied by -1.

Dividing the third row by 3 doesn't make much sense.

As a result of elementary transformations, an equivalent homogeneous system is obtained , and, applying the reverse move of the Gaussian method, it is easy to verify that the solution is unique.



Answer:

Let us formulate an obvious criterion: a homogeneous system of linear equations has only trivial solution, if system matrix rank(in this case, 3) is equal to the number of variables (in this case, 3 pcs.).

We warm up and tune our radio to a wave of elementary transformations:

Example 2

Solve a homogeneous system of linear equations

From the article How to find the rank of a matrix? we recall the rational method of incidentally reducing the numbers of the matrix. Otherwise, you will have to butcher large, and often biting fish. An example of an assignment at the end of the lesson.

Zeros are good and convenient, but in practice the case is much more common when the rows of the matrix of the system linearly dependent. And then the appearance of a general solution is inevitable:

Example 3

Solve a homogeneous system of linear equations

Decision: we write the matrix of the system and, using elementary transformations, we bring it to a step form. The first action is aimed not only at obtaining a single value, but also at reducing the numbers in the first column:

(1) The third row was added to the first row, multiplied by -1. The third line was added to the second line, multiplied by -2. At the top left, I got a unit with a "minus", which is often much more convenient for further transformations.

(2) The first two lines are the same, one of them has been removed. Honestly, did not customize the solution - it happened. If you perform transformations in a template, then linear dependence lines would show up a little later.

(3) To the third line, add the second line, multiplied by 3.

(4) The sign of the first line has been changed.

As a result of elementary transformations, an equivalent system is obtained:

The algorithm works exactly the same as for heterogeneous systems. Variables "sitting on the steps" are the main ones, the variable that did not get the "steps" is free.

We express the basic variables in terms of the free variable:

Answer: common decision:

The trivial solution is included in general formula, and there is no need to write it separately.

The verification is also carried out according to the usual scheme: the resulting general solution must be substituted into left side each equation of the system and get a legitimate zero for all substitutions.

This could be quietly ended, but the solution of a homogeneous system of equations often needs to be represented in vector form via fundamental decision system. Please temporarily forget about analytical geometry, since now we will talk about vectors in the general algebraic sense, which I slightly opened in an article about matrix rank. Terminology is not necessary to shade, everything is quite simple.

Def. A SLAE is said to be homogeneous if
. Otherwise, it is called heterogeneous.

Def. SLAE solution is such a set of values ​​of unknowns, when substituting which each equation of the system turns into an identity. Any specific SLAE solution is also called its particular solution.

Solving SLAE means solving two problems:

Find all solutions if they exist.

Def. A SLAE is called joint if it has at least one solution. Otherwise, it is called inconsistent.

Def. If SLAE (15.1) has a solution, and, moreover, unique, then it is called definite, and if the solution is not unique, then indefinite.

In addition to the coordinate form (15.1), SLAE records often use other representations of it.

(15.2)

The ratio is called the vector form of the SLAE.

If we take the product of matrices as a basis, then SLAE (15.1) can be written as follows:

A homogeneous system is always consistent and has a trivial solution
. For a nontrivial solution to exist, it is necessary that the rank of the matrix was less than the number of unknowns:

Fundamental decision system homogeneous system
call the system of solutions in the form of column vectors
, which correspond to the canonical basis, i.e. basis in which arbitrary constants
are alternately set equal to one, while the rest are set to zero.

Then the general solution of the homogeneous system has the form:

where
are arbitrary constants. In other words, the general solution is a linear combination of the fundamental system of solutions.

Thus, the basic solutions can be obtained from the general solution if the free unknowns are alternately given the value of unity, assuming all others equal to zero.

Example. Let's find a solution to the system

We accept , then we get the solution in the form:

Let us now construct a fundamental system of solutions:

.

The general solution can be written as:

Solutions to a system of homogeneous linear equations have the following properties:

In other words, any linear combination of solutions to a homogeneous system is again a solution.

Solution of systems of linear equations by the Gauss method

Solving systems of linear equations has been of interest to mathematicians for several centuries. The first results were obtained in the XVIII century. In 1750, G. Kramer (1704–1752) published his works on the determinants of square matrices and proposed an algorithm for finding the inverse matrix. In 1809, Gauss outlined a new solution method known as the elimination method.

The Gauss method, or the method of successive elimination of unknowns, consists in the fact that, with the help of elementary transformations, the system of equations is reduced to an equivalent system of a stepped (or triangular) form. Such systems allow you to consistently find all the unknowns in a certain order.

Suppose that in system (1)
(which is always possible).

(1)

Multiplying the first equation in turn by the so-called suitable numbers

and adding the result of multiplication with the corresponding equations of the system, we get an equivalent system in which all equations, except for the first one, will have no unknown X 1

(2)

We now multiply the second equation of system (2) by appropriate numbers, assuming that

,

and adding it to the lower ones, we eliminate the variable of all equations, starting with the third.

Continuing this process, after
steps we get:

(3)

If at least one of the numbers
is not equal to zero, then the corresponding equality is inconsistent and system (1) is inconsistent. Conversely, for any joint number system
are equal to zero. Number is nothing but the rank of the system matrix (1).

The transition from system (1) to (3) is called in a straight line Gaussian method, and finding unknowns from (3) - backwards .

Comment : It is more convenient to perform transformations not with the equations themselves, but with the extended matrix of the system (1).

Example. Let's find a solution to the system

.

Let's write the augmented matrix of the system:

.

Let's add to the lines 2,3,4 the first, multiplied by (-2), (-3), (-2) respectively:

.

Let's swap rows 2 and 3, then in the resulting matrix add row 2 to row 4, multiplied by :

.

Add to line 4 line 3 multiplied by
:

.

It's obvious that
, hence the system is consistent. From the resulting system of equations

we find the solution by reverse substitution:

,
,
,
.

Advantages of the Gauss method :

    Less time consuming than Cramer's method.

    Unambiguously establishes the compatibility of the system and allows you to find a solution.

    Gives the ability to determine the rank of any matrices.
