The bordered hessian matrix is used for fulfilling the second-order conditions for a maximum/minimum of a function of real variables subject to a constraint. The first row and first column of the bordered hessian correspond to the derivatives of the constraint whereas the other entries correspond to the second and cross partial derivatives of the real-valued function. Other than the bordered entries, the main diagonal of the sub matrix consists of entries for the second partial derivatives. All other entries of the sub matrix off of the main diagonal correspond to all combinations of cross partials. Evaluating the determinant of the bordered hessian will allow one to determine if the function attains its maximum or minimum at the stationary points, which by the way are limited in the fact that they must both satisfy the gradient equations and the constraint.

What is idempotent matrix?

An idempotent matrix is a matrix which gives the same matrix if we multiply with the same. in simple words,square of the matrix is equal to the same matrix. if M is our matrix,then MM=M. then M is a idempotent matrix.

What is the formula for determinant of a 3x3 matrix?

To answer this question, let me establish an example 3 x 3 matrix named "A": A= [a b c] [d e f] [g h i] The formula I will give you, called co-factor expansion, works for any size square matrix, so you could use it to find the determinant of a 2 x 2, 3 x 3, all the way up to an n x n matrix. To find the determinant, pick any row or column in the matrix. It will make your work much easier if you choose a row or column that has many zeroes in it. A general notation that is often used to find the determinant of a matrix is to use straight bars in place of the brackets surrounding the matrix contents. So, if I was to say mathematically that I was finding the determinant of the above example matrix, I could write it as: det(A)= |a b c| |d e f| |g h i| This notation will be used in the formula, so it is important to know this. For the sake of an arbitrary example, let us suppose I chose Row 1 of the matrix as my chosen row. To find the determinant of this matrix, I will perform the following calculation: (-1)2(a)|e f| + (-1)3(b)|d f| + (-1)4(c)|d e| |h i| |g i| |g h| This is the specific application of this general formula to the example matrix: (-1)i+j(aij)det(A1) In this formula, i and j are the row and column addresses, respectively, of a given matrix element. So, like in our specific application, when Row 1 was chosen as our subject row, the first term was (-1)1+1(A11)det(A1). The element "a" is in the first row, first column of the matrix, mean i=1 and j=1, therefore the superscript of (-1) is 1+1=2. A11 is simply the value held in the address i=1, j=1 of the matrix A. For this application, A11 was "a". det(A1) is the determinant of the submatrix A1. This submatrix has no formal nomenclature, I simply call it this for ease of explanation. A1 is the matrix created by "crossing out" the row and column that belong to the matrix element A11. In this application, that means it is the submatrix that is left after crossing out a, b, c, d, and g, which is simply the 2 x 2 matrix e,f;h,i. Performing this same process for the remainder of the matrix elements in Row 1 will yield the determinant of the matrix. So, the "generalized" form of the specific application above is: (-1)1+1(A11)det(A1) + (-1)1+2(A12)det(A2) + (-1)1+3(A13)det(A3) where A1 is the submatrix created by crossing out Row 1 and Column 1, A2 is the submatrix created by crossing out Row 1 and Column 2, and A3 is the submatrix created by crossing out Row 1 and Column 3. A final note is how to calculate the determinants of the submatrices. For a 3 x 3 matrix, its submatrices are all 2 x 2. For 2 x 2 matrices, a simple formula exists that makes this easy: |a b| = (ad) - (bc) |c d| For higher-dimension matrices, the submatrices also become larger, making the computation much more intensive.

How can I calculate the portfolio standard deviation in Excel?

To calculate the portfolio standard deviation in Excel, you can use the formula SQRT(SUMPRODUCT(COVARIANCE MATRIX, WEIGHTS MATRIX, TRANSPOSE(WEIGHTS MATRIX))). This formula multiplies the covariance matrix of the assets, the weights of each asset in the portfolio, and the transpose of the weights matrix, then takes the square root of the sum of these products.
