Question about rotation $2times 2$ rotation matrices












3












$begingroup$


How do I prove that, if for a $2 times 2$ matrix $A$ and a fixed integer $n> 0$ we have that $$A^n= begin{bmatrix} cos{x}& -sin{x}\ sin{x} & cos{x}end{bmatrix} ,$$
for some real $x$, then $A$ is also a rotation matrix? I know that it is very obvious, especially if you think about the isomorphism with complex numbers, but I can't seem to come up with a simple and rigorous proof.

          Even for the case $A^2=R$ there are many possible roots.



          Look for instance at:



          https://www.maa.org/sites/default/files/pdf/cms_upload/Square_Roots-Sullivan13884.pdf



          With the additional constraint $det(R)=1$ here you get $$operatorname{tr}(A)A=Rpm I$$



          and have to discuss according values of $x$, whether the trace is zero or not and so on.




          • e.g. $R=I$ and null trace, gives $begin{pmatrix}a&b\c&-aend{pmatrix}$ with $a^2+bc=1$


          [ $a=0,b=1,c=1$ is the case presented by David C. Ulrich in his answer ]





          For $A^n=R$ you get even more solutions.



          Starting with $n=2p$ even, you have to solve $A^p=B$ for every $B^2=R$ with $B$ not necessarily a rotation already...

            "Very obvious" or not, it's not true. If $A=begin{bmatrix}0&1\1&0end{bmatrix}$ then $A^2=I$ but $A$ is not a rotation.

              I see. So this means that the nth roots of a 2x2 rotation matrix are not necessarily rotation matrices? How would you then determine the nth roots of a rotation matrix?

              $begingroup$
              I doubt there's a simple algorithm to find all the $n$th roots. For example $I$ has infinitely many square roots, only two of which are rotations. Otoh if you just want $n$ $n$th roots that's easy. Say $A_theta$ is the rotation through the angle $theta$; then $B^n=A_theta$ if $B=A_{(theta+2pi k)/n}$, $k=1,dots,n$.

              I figured that too; What about if $A^n = R$ where $R$ is a 2x2 rotation matrix different from the identity? Then would A necessarily be a rotation matrix?

            $begingroup$

            $DeclareMathOperator{Tr}{Tr}$For the case $A^2=R$ where $R$ is a 2x2 rotation different from identity, we can apply Sullivan's article quoted by zwim, and find:



            If $R=begin{pmatrix}-1\&-1end{pmatrix}$, then $A=begin{pmatrix}alpha&beta\gamma&-alphaend{pmatrix}$ with $alpha^2+betagamma=-1$.



            If $R$ is any other rotation over an angle $phi$, then $displaystyle A=pmfrac{R+I}{sqrt{2cosphi+2}}$. Working through the possibilities, it means that $A$ is a rotation matrix over either $frac 12phi$ or $frac 12phi + pi$.

                        I doubt there's a simple algorithm to find all the $n$th roots. For example $I$ has infinitely many square roots, only two of which are rotations. Otoh if you just want $n$ $n$th roots that's easy. Say $A_theta$ is the rotation through the angle $theta$; then $B^n=A_theta$ if $B=A_{(theta+2pi k)/n}$, $k=1,dots,n$.

                        I figured that too; What about if $A^n = R$ where $R$ is a 2x2 rotation matrix different from the identity? Then would A necessarily be a rotation matrix?

                      $DeclareMathOperator{Tr}{Tr}$For the case $A^2=R$ where $R$ is a 2x2 rotation different from identity, we can apply Sullivan's article quoted by zwim, and find:



                      If $R=begin{pmatrix}-1\&-1end{pmatrix}$, then $A=begin{pmatrix}alpha&beta\gamma&-alphaend{pmatrix}$ with $alpha^2+betagamma=-1$.



                      If $R$ is any other rotation over an angle $phi$, then $displaystyle A=pmfrac{R+I}{sqrt{2cosphi+2}}$. Working through the possibilities, it means that $A$ is a rotation matrix over either $frac 12phi$ or $frac 12phi + pi$.

Inhaltsverzeichnis 1 Lage 2 Geschichte 3 Literatur 4 Weblinks Lage | Der etwa 90 Meter lange Ida-Boy-Ed-Garten befindet sich an der nördlichen Spitze der Altstadtinsel, vor dem Burgtor. Die in einem Bogen durch eine Grünanlage hangaufwärts führende Straße verbindet die Wakenitzmauer mit der Burgtorbrücke. Geschichte | Der heutige Ida-Boy-Ed-Garten wurde ursprünglich als Verlängerung der Wakenitzmauer angelegt. 1903 wurde in den erhaltenen Teil der mittelalterlichen Stadtmauer, an dem die Wakenitzmauer bei der Einmündung der Kaiserstraße begann, ein Tor mit einem großen Bogen für die Durchführung der Straße und zwei kleineren seitlichen Öffnungen für Fußgänger gebrochen, um für die neu errichteten Wohnhäuser in diesem Bereich
