Question: The 3 3 Hilbert matrix is The n n Hilbert matrix is H n = [h jk ], where h jk = 1/(j

The 3 × 3 Hilbert matrix is

The 3 × 3 Hilbert matrix is The n × n Hilbert

The n × n Hilbert matrix is Hn = [hjk], where hjk = 1/(j + k - 1). (Similar matrices occur in curve fitting by least squares.) Compute the condition number κ(Hn) for the matrix norm corresponding to the l - (or l1-) vector norm, for n = 2, 3, · · ·, 6 (or further if you wish). Try to find a formula that gives reasonable approximate values of these rapidly growing numbers.

Solve a few linear systems of your choice, involving an Hn.
