Puttin’ on the Ritz

In this webinar, we will look at the Rayleigh quotient for finding eigenvalues of symmetric matrices, and its relation to the Rayleigh-Ritz technique for approximating solutions of the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem. The gap between optimization and approximating eigenvalues of an ODE is spanned by the bridge of the variational calculus. When approximating solutions of the Sturm-Liouville BVP, this bridge is crossed by the technique of Ritz, but not necessarily of Galerkin.

For the Raleigh quotient, see the third edition of "Applied Linear Algebra" by Noble and Daniel. For the Rayleigh-Ritz technique, see Chapter VII in Sagan’s 1961 "Boundary and Eigenvalue Problems in Mathematical Physics," or better still, Chapter IV of "Approximate Methods of Higher Analysis" by Kantorovich and Krylov, translated (1964) by Curtis Benster.

Hello, please help, I want the command used to determine the points on the drawing in 3D for the flag. The command used if the drawing is in 2D, click right on the drawing and look up a list, choose probe info
From there, he chose the cursor postion
From which all points are revealed
