摘要
Given a positive definite matrix A, we characterize the unique diagonal matrix D, D >= A, with the smallest determinant. Equivalently, given an ellipsoid A, we characterize the unique ellipsoid of the largest volume contained in A, with principal axes parallel to the coordinate axes. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc.
