Normalizes (mathematical)
See also: Standard
In Geometry, the standard is an extension of the absolute Value of the numbers to the Vecteur S. It makes it possible to measure the Length common to all the representations of a vector in a space refines, but defines also a distance between two vectors invariant by translation and compatible with the multiplication externe.
The usual standard in the plan or the space is known as Euclidean because it is associated with a scalar Produit, at the base of the Euclidean Géométrie.
Other standards are very much used on the vector spaces of finished or infinite size, called then normalized vector spaces . They are in particular very important in analyzes functional to obtain increases, to express the Différenciation on spaces of functions of one or more real or complex variables, to calculate estimates and approximations.

Definition
If has and B is two points of the plan or usual space, the standard of the vector is the distance i.e. the length of the segment . It is noted using a double bar: .
The standard, the direction and the direction are the three data which characterize a vector and which thus do not depend on the choice of the representative.

Calculation
The standard of a vector can be calculated using its coordinates in a Repère orthonormé using the theorem of Pythagore.
- In the plan, if the vector has as coordinates its standard is written .
-
If the points
has and
B has as respective coordinates
and
then
.
- In space, if the vector has as coordinates its standard is written .
-
If the points
has and
B has as respective coordinates
and
then
.
The standard of a vector can be obtained starting from the scalar Produit:
- .
Reciprocally, the scalar product can be obtained on the standard basis thanks to the relation:
- .

In particular, any vector to the same standard as its opposite: .

Formal definition
That is to say K a body provided with a absolute value
and E a K - vector Space.
A standard on E is an application on E to real values positive and satisfying the following assumptions:
- separation : ;
- homogeneity : ;
- under-additivity : .
; Note:
- the bodies of realities and the complexes are not the only ones to admit an absolute value. Any finished body supports the constant absolute value equal to 1 apart from 0.
Danslecasde the Corps valué S, the standard is even ultrametric by checking a certain condition stronger than under-additivity. - a function of E in which satisfies only the assumptions of homogeneity and under-additivity is called Semi-norme.
A vector space provided with a standard is then called vector space normalized (sometimes shortened in EVN).

The image of a vector by the standard usually notes and is read “standard of X ”.
First properties
. - more generally, one obtains by immediate recurrence the inequality in :
-
. - separation and the homogeneity guarantee the properties of separation and symmetry of the function . Under-additivity justifies the triangular Inégalité then,
-
necessary to show that D is a distance on E , which more is invariant by translation. a normalized vector space is thus a metric Espace homogeneous and the associated topology is compatible with the vectorial operations. - under-additivity makes it possible to obtain the following property:
-
which shows that the standard is an application 1-lipschitzienne thus continuous. - the standard is also a convex Fonction, which can be useful to solve problems of optimization.
Topology
The Boule unit (open) of a standard is the whole of the vectors of standard lower (strictly) than 1.
Two standards and on a vector space E are known as equivalent if there exist two strictly positive realities and such as:
- .
That corresponds to the fact that in the open balls of the two standards can include one in the other except for dilation.
Two equivalent standards define same topology on the vector space. The structures are even uniformly isomorphous.
On a real or complex vector space of finished size, all the standards are equivalent.
The ball open unit is an open convex limited and balanced of E .
Generic constructions
. a standard is Euclidean (i.e. comes from a scalar product) if and only if the application is Bilinéaire and in this case this application is the associated scalar product. - If F is an injective linear application of E in F then any standard on F induces a standard on E by the equation
-
. - If C is an open convex limited and balanced of a real or complex vector space E , then the gauge of C is a standard defined by
-
and whose C is the Boule open unit. - If E and F is two real or complex normalized vector spaces, space of the continuous linear applications is provided with the Norme of being written operator :
-
.
