Calling Sequence

Norm(a, p)

Parameters

a

-

Vector or Matrix with algebraic entries

p

-

(optional) a real number greater than or equal to 1, infinity, or Euclidean; defaults to 2

Description

• 

The Norm command computes the p-norm of a.

• 

If p is set to Euclidean, then the 2-norm is computed.

• 

For a real number p, the p-norm of a n-dimensional Vector v is given by i=1nvip1p.

• 

The infinity norm of a n-dimensional Vector v is given by maxi=1n|vi|.

• 

Let v denote the p-norm or infinity norm of a Vector v. The p-norm or infinity norm of a Matrix a is given by max||v||=1||a.v||.

• 

Only the 1, 2, and infinity norms are available for Matrices.
