\[A=\left( \begin{array}{ccc} 2 & -3 & 1 \\ 1 & -2 & 1 \\ 1 & -3 & 2 \end{array} \right)\]
\[x=\left( \begin{array}{c} 1 \\ 1 \\ 1 \end{array} \right)\]
\[y=\left( \begin{array}{c} 3 \\ 1 \\ 0 \end{array} \right)\]
\[z=\left( \begin{array}{c} -1 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{array} \right)\]
x , y, z are eigenvector of A
Find two matrices X and D such that X*D=A*X
@Zarkon
this is not unique...choose X to be the zero matrix
may be they want something other than trivial case?
D is the diagonal of eugene values; and X is a matrix of columns of (x y z) if those are the eugene vectors
so how do we find eigenvalue from eigenvector
\[D=\begin{pmatrix}e_1&0&0\\0&e_2&0\\0&0&e_3 \end{pmatrix}\] \[X=\begin{pmatrix}\vec e_1&\vec e_2&\vec e_3 \end{pmatrix}\]
the values are unique; just value out A is my first thought
unique is prolly a bad term
We could use the definition Ax = Lx , and most times the L is usually a moot point
i still think Evalueing A is my safest idea
I tried X D= A X and it doesn't seem to match
\[det\begin{pmatrix} 2-n & -3 & 1 \\ 1 & -2-n & 1 \\ 1 & -3 & 2-n \end{pmatrix}\] should get us the Evalues
eigen values :]
oh,right by finding determinant
got it , I got \[\lambda1=0,\lambda2=1,\lambda3=1\]
good, then we rref A by subtracting lambda from the diag to relate it to th vectors
got it , it matches, thanks so much Amistre
