"For an $m \\times m$ real-symmetric matrix $S = S^T$, we know that we have real eigenvalues $\\lambda_1,\\ldots,\\lambda_m$ and can find an orthonormal basis of eigenvectors $Q = \\begin{pmatrix} q_1 & \\cdots & q_m \\end{pmatrix}$. So, we can write any vector $x \\in \\mathbb{R}^m$ as $x = Qc = q_1 c_1 + \\cdots q_m c_m$ for some coefficient $c$.\n",
