Chapter 9 Eigenvalue, Diagonalization, and Special Matrices <Definition> A real or complex number is an eigenvalue of A if there is a nonzero nx1 matrix (vector) E such that Any nonzero vector E satisfying this relationship is called eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue . <Definition> Characteristic Polynomial The polynomial is the characteristic polynomial of A, and is denoted <Theorem> • Let A be an nxn matrix of real or complex numbers. Then • is an eigenvalue of A if and only if • If is an eigenvlaue of A, then any non-trivial solution of • is an associated

Theorem A is diagonalizable if it has n linearly independent eigenvectors. Further, if P is the nxn matrix having the eigenvectors as columns, then is the diagonal matrix having the corresponding eigenvalues down its main diagonal. Steps: 1. From the nxn matrix A, find its eigenvalues and the associated eigenvectors 2. Use eigenvectors as columns of P, i.e., 3. Compute the inverse of P, i.e., 4. Check that P diagonalizes A, i.e.,
Theorem If a nxn matrix A has n linearly independent eigenvectors, , then A is diagonalizable. , then , then exist, and (因為所有columns線性獨立,無法互相取代,使 P的reduced matrix = In P的 inverse 存在) Theorem If A is diagonalizable exist A has n linearly independent eigenvectors
Theorem Let A be an nxn diagonalizable matrix. Then A has n linearly independent eigenvectors. Further, if is a diagonal matrix, then the diagonal elements of are the eigenvalues of A, and the columns of Q are corresponding eigenvectors. Proof. Examples: Theorem Let the nxn matrix A has n distinct eigenvalues. Then the corresponding eigenvectors are linearly independent. Proof. Examples: • Distinct eigenvalues (n個數值都不一樣的eigenvalues) • eigenvectors are linearly independent • exist A is diagonalizable.
