The given value is unstable

Step by step solution

01

Definition of eigenvalue

An Eigenvalue is a scalar of linear operators for which there exists a non-zero vector. This property is equivalent to an Eigenvector.

Let \(B = \left\{ {{{\bf{b}}_1},{{\bf{b}}_2},{{\bf{b}}_3}} \right\}\)be a basis for a vector space \(V\) and\(T:V \to {\mathbb{R}^2}\) be a linear transformation with the property that

\(T\left( {{x_1}{{\bf{b}}_1} + {x_2}{{\bf{b}}_2} + {x_3}{{\bf{b}}_3}} \right) = \left( {\begin{aligned}{2{x_1} - 4{x_2} + 5{x_3}}\\{ - {x_2} + 3{x_3}}\end{aligned}} \right)\)

Find the matrix for \(T\) relative to \(B\) and the standard basis for \({\mathbb{R}^2}\).

Use mathematical induction to show that if \(\lambda \) is an eigenvalue of an \(n \times n\) matrix \(A\), with a corresponding eigenvector, then, for each positive integer \(m\), \({\lambda ^m}\)is an eigenvalue of \({A^m}\), with \({\rm{x}}\) a corresponding eigenvector.

Question: Let \(A = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{.6}&{.3}\\{.4}&{.7}\end{array}} \right)\), \({v_1} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{3/7}\\{4/7}\end{array}} \right)\), \({x_0} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{.5}\\{.5}\end{array}} \right)\). (Note: \(A\) is the stochastic matrix studied in Example 5 of Section 4.9.)

  1. Find a basic for \({\mathbb{R}^2}\) consisting of \({{\rm{v}}_1}\) and anther eigenvector \({{\rm{v}}_2}\) of \(A\).
  2. Verify that \({{\rm{x}}_0}\) may be written in the form \({{\rm{x}}_0} = {{\rm{v}}_1} + c{{\rm{v}}_2}\).
  3. For \(k = 1,2, \ldots \), define \({x_k} = {A^k}{x_0}\). Compute \({x_1}\) and \({x_2}\), and write a formula for \({x_k}\). Then show that \({{\bf{x}}_k} \to {{\bf{v}}_1}\) as \(k\) increases.

Show that if \(A\) is diagonalizable, with all eigenvalues less than 1 in magnitude, then \({A^k}\) tends to the zero matrix as \(k \to \infty \). (Hint: Consider \({A^k}x\) where \(x\) represents any one of the columns of \(I\).)


For the matrix A,find real closed formulas for the trajectory x(t+1)=Ax¯(t)wherex=[01]. Draw a rough sketchA=[-0.51.5-0.61.3]
