Exercises<br />

1 A square matrix is stochastic if the sum of the entries in each column is one. The<br />

Google matrix is computed by taking a combination G = α ∗ H +(1 − α) ∗ S of two<br />

stochastic matrices. Show that G must be stochastic.<br />

2 For this web of pages, the importance of each page should be equal. Verify it for<br />

α = 0.85.<br />

p 1 p 2<br />

p 4<br />

p 3<br />

3 [Bryan & Leise] Give the importance ranking for this web of pages.<br />

p 1 p 2<br />

p 4<br />

p 3<br />

(a) Use α = 0.85.<br />

(b) Use α = 0.95.<br />

(c) Observe that while p 3 is linked-to from all other pages, and therefore seems<br />

important, it is not the highest ranked page. What is the highest ranked page?<br />

Explain.
