23: Suppose matrix A is similar to B. What is the relationship between the characteristic polynomials of A and B? What does your answer tell you about the eigenvalues of A and B?
Consider a 4 脳 4 matrixwhere B, C, and D are 2 脳 2 matrices. What is the relationship among the eigenvalues of A, B, C, and D?
(a) Give an example of a 3 脳 3 matrix A with as many nonzero entries as possible such that both span() and span(,) are A-invariant subspaces of . See Exercise 65.
(b) Consider the linear space Vof all 3 脳 3 matrices A such that both span () and span (,) are A-invariant subspaces of . Describe the space V (the matrices in V 鈥渉ave a name鈥), and determine the dimension of V.
Arguing geometrically, find all eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the linear transformations in Exercises 15 through 22. In each case, find an eigenbasis if you can, and thus determine whether the given transformation is diagonalizable.
Rotation through an angle of in.
Two interacting populations of coyotes and roadrunners can be modeled by the recursive equations
h(t + 1) = 4h(t)-2f(t)
f(t + 1) = h(t) + f(t).
For each of the initial populations given in parts (a) through (c), find closed formulas for h(t) and f(t).
