Question: Verify that each of the following matrices is Hermitian. Find its eigenvalues and eigenvectors, write a unitary matrix U which diagonalizes H by a similarity transformation, and show that is the diagonal matrix of eigenvalues.
Show that ifA and Bare matrices which don't commute, then , but if they do commute then the relation holds. Hint: Write out several terms of the infinite series for , and and, do the multiplications carefully assuming that anddon't commute. Then see what happens if they do commute
(a) If Cis orthogonal and Mis symmetric, show that is symmetric.
(b) IfC is orthogonal and Mantisymmetric, show thatis antisymmetric.
For each of the following problems write and row reduce the augmented matrix to find out whether the given set of equations has exactly one solution, no solutions, or an infinite set of solutions. Check your results by computer. Warning hint:Be sure your equations are written in standard form. Comment: Remember that the point of doing these problems is not just to get an answer (which your computer will give you), but to become familiar with the terminology, ideas, and notation we are using.
Find the distance between the two given lines.
