当G是基本(随机)Google矩阵,c是真实的参数,使得0<c<1,v是非负概率向量,e是全1向量时,分析了Web超链接矩阵G(c)=cG+(1−c)evT的谱结构和Jordan结构.典型的研究在很大程度上依赖于非负矩阵、正矩阵和随机矩阵的特殊性质。存在唯一的非负向量y(c)使得y(c)TG(c)=y(c)T且y(c)Te=1。这个PageRank向量y(c)可以通过幂方法有效地计算。我们考虑一个正方形复矩阵A和非零复向量x和v,使得Ax=λx和v <$x=1。我们使用标准的矩阵分析工具来确定A(c)=cA+(1−c)λxv <$作为复变量c的函数的特征值、Jordan块和一个特殊的左λ-特征向量。如果λ是A的半单特征值,则存在唯一确定的投影N使得对于所有v,limc→ 1 y(c)=Nv;如果λ不是半单的,则对于某些v,这个极限可能不存在。作为我们的结果的一个特殊情况,我们得到了一个复杂的模拟网页超链接矩阵G(c)与一个复杂的参数c。我们研究了y(c)的正则性、极限、扩展和条件,并提出了算法(例如, 复外推法、修正矩阵上的幂方法等)这也可以提供计算PageRank有效方式,其中c接近或等于1。解释的极限向量NV和相关的关键讨论的模型,其坚持现实,并可能的方式,其改进,代表的贡献,该文件的建模问题。
The spectral and Jordan structures of the Web hyperlink matrix G(c)=cG+(1−c)evThave been analyzed when G is the basic (stochastic) Google matrix, c is a real parameter such that 0<c<1, v is a nonnegative probability vector, and e is the all-ones vector. Typical studies have relied heavily on special properties of nonnegative, positive, and stochastic matrices. There is a unique nonnegative vector y(c) such that y(c)TG(c)=y(c)Tand y(c)Te=1. This PageRank vector y(c) can be computed effectively by the power method. We consider a square complex matrix A and nonzero complex vectors x and v such that Ax=λx and v∗x=1. We use standard matrix analytic tools to determine the eigenvalues, the Jordan blocks, and a distinguished left λ-eigenvector of A(c)=cA+(1−c)λxv∗as a function of a complex variable c. If λ is a semisimple eigenvalue of A, there is a uniquely determined projection N such that limc→1y(c)=Nv for all v; this limit may fail to exist for some v if λ is not semisimple. As a special case of our results, we obtain a complex analog of PageRank for the Web hyperlink matrix G(c) with a complex parameter c. We study regularity, limits, expansions, and conditioning of y(c) and we propose algorithms (e.g., complex extrapolation, power method on a modified matrix etc.) that may provide an efficient way to compute PageRank also with c close or equal to 1. An interpretation of the limit vector Nv and a related critical discussion on the model, on its adherence to reality, and possible ways for its improvement, represent the contribution of the paper on modeling issues.
