Question 12743: Evaluate an Ordered Real Bilinear Matrix Formula

Original question and givens

Use B(x,y)=x^T A y over the real coordinate space with square integer matrix A=[[5, 0], [3, 4]]. All input vector dimensions must match the matrix. Distributivity proves linearity separately in both slots for all real vectors and scalars; individual integer evaluations illustrate that fixed formula, not a black-box sampling proof. Symmetry, positive definiteness, nondegeneracy and inner-product qualification are additional conditions. x=[0, 0], y=[1, -5]. Give (matrix,x,y,value).

Step-by-step derivation

fixed real matrix=[[5, 0], [3, 4]];B(x,y)=sum_i sum_j x_i*A_ij*y_j

distributivity proves real linearity in each slot separately for all vectors and scalars

requested form:matrix=[[5, 0], [3, 4]];first slot=[0, 0];second slot=[1, -5]

B(first,second)=first^T*(matrix*second);slot order fixed

requested form matrix row0 column0 term := mul(5, 1)

requested form matrix row0 column0 term = 5

requested form matrix row0 column1 term := mul(0, -5)

requested form matrix row0 column1 term = 0

requested form matrix-times-second row0 := sum(5, 0)

requested form matrix-times-second row0 = 5

requested form matrix row1 column0 term := mul(3, 1)

requested form matrix row1 column0 term = 3

requested form matrix row1 column1 term := mul(4, -5)

requested form matrix row1 column1 term = -20

requested form matrix-times-second row1 := sum(3, -20)

requested form matrix-times-second row1 = -17

requested form first-slot coordinate0 term := mul(0, 5)

requested form first-slot coordinate0 term = 0

requested form first-slot coordinate1 term := mul(0, -17)

requested form first-slot coordinate1 term = 0

requested form final first-slot dot sum := sum(0, 0)

requested form final first-slot dot sum = 0
