What is
Which of the following statements is correct? Surprisingly hard to get this right without your eyes glazing over :)
What is
Let A be the matrix of a 3d rotation of 60 degrees in the counterclockwise direction around the vector (1,1,1)T. How many eigenvalues does this rotation have?
Do you understand the following:
To be able to diagonalise an nxn matrix, it has to have n linearly independent eigenvectors.
For a matrix to be diagonalizable it does not necessarily have to have n different eigenvalues.
If v1, v2, v3, ... are linearly independent eigenvectors with corresponding eigenvalues l1, l2, l3, ... , respectively. To make up the matrix D we can add the eigenvalues in any order. However, when we then build the corresponding diagonalizing matrix T we have to use the corresponding eigenvectors in the same order.
For a matrix to be diagonalizable is a good thing :)
Let A be the matrix of a 3d reflection through a plane that contains the origin. Any such matrix has the same two eigenvalues. What’s the smaller of these two eigenvalues?
The matrix can be diagonalised. What's the smallest non-zero entry of the diagonal matrix?
This matrix
has eigenvalues 1 and 2. If
is an eigenvector corresponding to the eigenvalue 1, what is a?
This is a matrix A in Mathematica format {{3, 1, 0, 0, 0}, {1, 3, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 4, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 4, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 4}}.
Is the vector b={{2},{2},{1},{0},{0}}an eigenvector of this matrix? If it is not enter “no”. Otherwise, enter the corresponding eigenvalue. Happy for you to use Mathematica.This matrix
has eigenvalues 1 and 2. If
is an eigenvector corresponding to the eigenvalue 2, what is a?
