Given \(A \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times m}, B \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}, C \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n},\) the equa- tion \\[ A X-X B=C \\] is known as Sylvester's equation. An \(m \times n\) matrix \(X\) is said to be a solution if it satisfies (3) (a) Show that if \(B\) has Schur decomposition \(B=U T U^{H},\) then Sylvester's equation can be transformed into an equation of the form \(A Y-Y T=G,\) where \(Y=X U\) and \(G=C U\) (b) Show that \\[ \begin{array}{l} \left(A-t_{11} I\right) \mathbf{y}_{1}=\mathbf{g}_{1} \\ \left(A-t_{j j} I\right) \mathbf{y}_{j}=\mathbf{g}_{j}+\sum_{i=1}^{j-1} t_{i j} \mathbf{y}_{j}, j=2, \ldots, n \end{array} \\] (c) Show that if \(A\) and \(B\) have no common eigenvalues, then Sylvester's equation has a solution.
Show that if a matrix \(U\) is both unitary and Hermitian, then any eigenvalue of \(U\) must equal either 1 or -1
Show that any \(3 \times 3\) matrix of the form \\[ \left(\begin{array}{lll} a & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & a & 1 \\ 0 & 0 & b \end{array}\right) \\] is defective.
Let \(A\) be a symmetric positive definite matrix. Show that the diagonal elements of \(A\) must all be positive.
Let \(A\) be an \(n \times n\) matrix with an eigenvalue \(\lambda\) of multiplicity \(n .\) Show that \(A\) is diagonalizable if and only if \(A=\lambda I\)
