Eigen Values and Eigen Vectors
Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors• Eigenvalue problem:
If A is an nn matrix, do there exist nonzero vectors x in Rn
such that Ax is a scalar multiple of x?
Eigenvalue and eigenvector:
A:an nn matrix
:a scalar
x: a nonzero vector in Rn

Eigen value and Eigen vector
A matrix eigenvalue problem considers the vectorequation:
Ax = λx (1)
Here A is a given square matrix, λ an unknown scalar, and xan unknown vector. In a matrix eigenvalue problem, thetask is to determine λ’s and x’s
Thm 5.2: (Finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix AMnn )
Let A is an nn matrix.
(1) An eigenvalue of A is a scalar such that .
(2) The eigenvectors of A corresponding to are the nonzero
solutions of .
