Lipschitz constant of a matrix












0












$begingroup$


I am studying the Lipschitz continuity and trying to solve the following question:



If a function $f(x)= Ax$ is defined for $x in mathbb{R}^2$ with $A= begin{bmatrix}
a & b \
c & d
end{bmatrix}$
, then find a constant L such that
begin{eqnarray*}
||Ax - Ay|| le L||x - y||, x, y in mathbb{R}^2.
end{eqnarray*}

I understand how to find the Lipschitz constant in $mathbb{R}$, but I have no idea about how to find it in $mathbb{R}^2$.

    Presumably, you want a constant $L$ such that $| Ax_{1} -Ax_{2}| leq L | x_{1}-x_{2} |$, right? What do you know about the norm of the matrix $A$?

For the Frobenius norm, given by $midmid Amidmid=sqrt{sum_{i=1}^nsum_{j=1}^mmid a_{ij}mid^2}$.



we get $midmid Ax_1-Ax_2midmidlemidmid Amidmidcdotmidmid x_1-x_2midmidle2operatorname{max}{mid amid,mid bmid,mid cmid,mid dmid}midmid x_1-x_2midmid$.
