MATH 304 Linear Algebra - Texas A&M University
www.math.tamu.eduMatrix algebra: linear operations Addition: two matrices of the same dimensions can be added by adding their corresponding entries. Scalar multiplication: to multiply a matrix A by a scalar r, one multiplies each entry of A by r. Zero matrix O: all entries are zeros. Negative: −A is defined as (−1)A. Subtraction: A−B is defined as A+(−B).
Chapter 6 Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors
math.mit.eduFor other matrices we use determinants and linear algebra. This is the key calculation in the chapter—almost every application starts by solving Ax = λx. First move λx to the left side. Write the equation Ax = λx as (A −λI)x = 0. The matrix A −λI times the eigenvector x is the zero vector. The eigenvectors make up the nullspace of A ...
