Exercise 1.8.15

Answers

Every 3 by 3 matrix has 9 entries. So UΣV T must have 9 parameters. There are 3 parameters in Σ. Each of U and V shall have 3 parameters.

For 4 by 4 matrix, there are 4 parameters for Σ, since U, V have the same shape, they have (16 4) ÷ 2 = 6 parameters each.

There are 3 parameters to describe a rotation in a 4-dimensional space. (TODO)
