Transcribed Image Text:Problem 5: Norm Preserving Flows
a) For a given time-variant system \(\dot{x}(t) = A(t)x(t)\), the adjoint system is defined as \(\dot{y}(t) = -A(t)^T y(t)\). Prove that the inner product of the states of these two systems remains the same, that is, there exists \(c \in \mathbb{R}\) such that \(\forall t \in \mathbb{R} : x(t)^T y(t) = c\).
b) Assume \(A(t) = -A(t)^T, \forall t\). Prove that \(\exists c \in \mathbb{R}\) such that: \(\|x(t)\|_2 = c \forall t\).
c) Prove that if \(A\) is a skew-symmetric matrix, \(Q = e^{At}\) is orthogonal.
