Question: Is \(\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1\\4\end{array}} \right)\) an eigenvalue of \(\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{ - 3}&1\\{ - 3}&8\end{array}} \right)\)? If so, find the eigenvalue.
(M)The MATLAB command roots\(\left( p \right)\) computes the roots of the polynomial equation \(p\left( t \right) = {\bf{0}}\). Read a MATLAB manual, and then describe the basic idea behind the algorithm for the roots command.
Question 19: Let \(A\) be an \(n \times n\) matrix, and suppose A has \(n\) real eigenvalues, \({\lambda _1},...,{\lambda _n}\), repeated according to multiplicities, so that \(\det \left( {A - \lambda I} \right) = \left( {{\lambda _1} - \lambda } \right)\left( {{\lambda _2} - \lambda } \right) \ldots \left( {{\lambda _n} - \lambda } \right)\) . Explain why \(\det A\) is the product of the n eigenvalues of A. (This result is true for any square matrix when complex eigenvalues are considered.)
Let\(B = \left\{ {{{\bf{b}}_1},{{\bf{b}}_2},{{\bf{b}}_3}} \right\}\) be a basis for a vector space\(V\). Find \(T\left( {3{{\bf{b}}_1} - 4{{\bf{b}}_2}} \right)\) when \(T\) isa linear transformation from \(V\) to \(V\) whose matrix relative to \(B\) is
\({\left( T \right)_B} = \left( {\begin{aligned}0&{}&{ - 6}&{}&1\\0&{}&5&{}&{ - 1}\\1&{}&{ - 2}&{}&7\end{aligned}} \right)\)
Let \(A{\bf{ = }}\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{{a_{{\bf{11}}}}}&{{a_{{\bf{12}}}}}\\{{a_{{\bf{21}}}}}&{{a_{{\bf{22}}}}}\end{aligned}} \right)\). Recall from Exercise \({\bf{25}}\) in Section \({\bf{5}}{\bf{.4}}\) that \({\rm{tr}}\;A\) (the trace of \(A\)) is the sum of the diagonal entries in \(A\). Show that the characteristic polynomial of \(A\) is \({\lambda ^2} - \left( {{\rm{tr}}A} \right)\lambda + \det A\). Then show that the eigenvalues of a \({\bf{2 \times 2}}\) matrix \(A\) are both real if and only if \(\det A \le {\left( {\frac{{{\rm{tr}}A}}{2}} \right)^2}\).
