      This function assembles the matrices XtGX, XtY and initial parameter guess B0 for a particular sample_block
      (where the contribution of that sample_block has been omitted) and solves the equation
      B = B0 - [(XtGX + I*alpha)]-1 * XtY for a single alpha value, and returns the coefficient vector B, where B has 1
      element per header in the block X.
  
      Args:
          key : unique key identifying the group of rows emitted by a groupBy statement
          key_pattern : pattern of columns used in the groupBy statement that emitted this group of rows
          pdf : starting Pandas DataFrame containing the lists of rows from beta, XtGX, and XtY for block X identified
