(2) A real symmetric matrix A is positive definite if and only if A=BT B for some matrix B
whose columns are all linearly independent.
(3) Suppose A, B are Hermitian matrices, the symmetric product of A, B is the matrix
S = AB + BA.
(i) Is the matrix S Hermitian? If yes, give a proof. If not, use soundness to justify your "NO".
(ii) If A, B are positive definite, is the matrix S positive definite? If yes, give a proof. If not, use
soundness to justify your "NO".
(iii) If A,S are positive definite, is the matrix B positive definite? Just answer "Yes" or "NO".
