Find a matrixsuch that
is a trajectory of the dynamical systemrole="math" localid="1659527385729"
27: a. Based on your answers in Exercises 24 and 25, find closed formulas for the components of the dynamical system
with initial value . Then do the same for the initial value . Sketch the two trajectories.
b. Consider the matrix
.
Using technology, compute some powers of the matrix A, say, A2, A5, A10, . . . .What do you observe? Diagonalize matrix Ato prove your conjecture. (Do not use Theorem 2.3.11, which we have not proven
yet.)
c. If
is an arbitrary positive transition matrix, what can you say about the powers Atas t goes to infinity? Your result proves Theorem 2.3.11c for the special case of a positive transition matrix of size 2 × 2.
Consider a 4 × 4 matrixwhere B, C, and D are 2 × 2 matrices. What is the relationship among the eigenvalues of A, B, C, and D?
For each of the matrices in Exercises 1 through 13, find all real eigenvalues, with their algebraic multiplicities. Show your work. Do not use technology.
For an arbitrary positive integer n, give a matrix A without real eigenvalues.
