Show that \(A\) and \(A^{T}\) have the same eigenvalues. Do they necessarily have the same eigenvectors? Explain.
Let \(A\) be a singular \(n \times n\) matrix. Show that \(A^{T} A\) is positive semidefinite, but not positive definite.
Let \(U\) be a unitary matrix. Prove that (a) \(U\) is normal. (b) \(\|U \mathbf{x}\|=\|\mathbf{x}\|\) for all \(\mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{C}^{n}\) (c) if \(\lambda\) is an eigenvalue of \(U,\) then \(|\lambda|=1\)
Let \(Q\) be a \(3 \times 3\) orthogonal matrix whose determinant is equal to 1 (a) If the eigenvalues of \(Q\) are all real and if they are ordered so that \(\lambda_{1} \geq \lambda_{2} \geq \lambda_{3},\) determine the values of all possible triples of eigenvalues \(\left(\lambda_{1}, \lambda_{2}, \lambda_{3}\right)\) (b) In the case that the eigenvalues \(\lambda_{2}\) and \(\lambda_{3}\) are complex, what are the possible values for \(\lambda_{1} ?\) Explain. (c) Explain why \(\lambda=1\) must be an eigenvalue of \(Q\)
Let \(p(\lambda)=(-1)^{n}\left(\lambda^{n}-a_{n-1} \lambda^{n-1}-\cdots-a_{1} \lambda-a_{0}\right)\) be a polynomial of degree \(n \geq 1\), and let \\[ C=\left(\begin{array}{ccccc} a_{n-1} & a_{n-2} & \cdots & a_{1} & a_{0} \\ 1 & 0 & \cdots & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & \cdots & 0 & 0 \\ \vdots & & & \\ 0 & 0 & \cdots & 1 & 0 \end{array}\right) \\] (a) Show that if \(\lambda_{i}\) is a root of \(p(\lambda)=0,\) then \(\lambda_{i}\) is an eigenvalue of \(C\) with eigenvector \(\mathbf{x}=\) \(\left(\lambda_{i}^{n-1}, \lambda_{i}^{n-2}, \ldots, \lambda_{i}, 1\right)^{T}\) (b) Use part (a) to show that if \(p(\lambda)\) has \(n\) distinct roots, then \(p(\lambda)\) is the characteristic polynomial of \(C\). The matrix \(C\) is called the companion matrix of \(p(\lambda)\)
