Abstract
Position vectors are much useful in several fields, such as Differential Geometry, Mechanics and in Engineering, in particular in Dimensional Metrology. We generalize, for linear varieties in , the corresponding results known for the Euclidean ordinary space. The Moore-Penrose inverse of matrices plays an important rôle in this paper. Generalizations for three linear varieties of the Anderson-Duffin formulae are presented. We establish several formulae for a position vector of the intersection of linear varieties. Some characterization of the position vector is provided in terms of centres of spheres. Results, in the context of commuting projections, are given as well.
期刊介绍:
Linear Algebra and its Applications publishes articles that contribute new information or new insights to matrix theory and finite dimensional linear algebra in their algebraic, arithmetic, combinatorial, geometric, or numerical aspects. It also publishes articles that give significant applications of matrix theory or linear algebra to other branches of mathematics and to other sciences. Articles that provide new information or perspectives on the historical development of matrix theory and linear algebra are also welcome. Expository articles which can serve as an introduction to a subject for workers in related areas and which bring one to the frontiers of research are encouraged. Reviews of books are published occasionally as are conference reports that provide an historical record of major meetings on matrix theory and linear algebra.
