Abstract

A method for finding the best approximation of a matrix A by a full rank Hankel matrix is given. The initial problem of best approximation of one matrix by another is transformed to a problem involving best approximation of a given vector by a second vector whose elements are constrained so that its inverse image is a Hankel matrix. The map from a matrix to a vector is the invertible map between a subspace represented as the row space of the matrix A and the Grassman vector representing that subspace. The relation between the principle angles associated with a pair of subspaces and the angle between the Grassman vectors associated with the subspaces is established.
