The real orthogonal matrix Ω[p,q]∈Rm×m with 1⩽p<q⩽m is a Givens rotation with rotation angle θ. Write down the form of Ω[p,q].
Show that for any matrix A∈Rm×m it is possible to choose θ such that the matrix Ω[p,q]A satisfies (Ω[p,q]A)q,j=0 for any j, where 1⩽j⩽m.
Let
A=⎣⎢⎡112347/22442⎦⎥⎤
By applying a sequence of Givens rotations of the form Ω[1,3]Ω[1,2], chosen to reduce the elements in the first column below the main diagonal to zero, find a factorisation of the matrix A∈R3×3 of the form A=QR, where Q∈R3×3 is an orthogonal matrix and R∈R3×3 is an upper-triangular matrix for which the leading non-zero element in each row is positive.
