  • The Kalman gain is commonly derived as the minimizer of the trace of theposterior covariance. It is known that it also minimizes the determinant of the posterior covariance. I will show that it also minimizes the smallest Eigenvalue $λ_1$ and the chracteristic polynomial on $(-\infty,λ_1)$ and is critical point to all symmetric polynomials of the Eigenvalues, minimizing some. This expands the range of uncertainty measures for which the Kalman Filter is optimal.
