EIGEN VALUE
IfA is any square matrix of order n, we can form the matrix A-λI, where I is the nth
order unit matrix. The determinant of this matrix equated to zero. i.e.,
A – λI = a11-λ a12 .... a1n
a21 a22-λ .... a2n = 0
.... .... .... ....
an1 an2 .... ann-λ
is called the characteristic equation of A. On expanding the determinant, the
characteristic equation takes form
(-1)n λn + k1 λn-1 + k2 λn-2 +.....+ kn = 0.
Where k’s are expressible in term of the element aij. The root of this equation is
called the eigen-values or latent roots or characteristic roots of the matrix A.
EIGENVECTOR:
If X= X1 and A= a11 a12 ... a1n
X2 a21 a22 ... a2n
... ... ... ... ...
X4 an1 an2 ... ann
Then the linear transformation Y = AX .....(i)
Carries the column vector X into the column vector y by means of the square matrix
A. In practice, it is often required to find such vectors which transform into
themselves or to a scalar multiple of themselves.
Let X be such a vector which transform into λX by means of the transformation (i).
Then λX = AX or AX-λIX=0 or [A – λI]X=0 ........(ii)
This matrix equation represents n homogeneous linear equations
(a11-λ)x1 + a12x2 + ... + a1nxn = 0
a21x1 + (a22- λ)x2 + ... + a2nxn= 0
.............................................................. .........(iii)
an1x1 + an2x2 + ....+ (ann-λ)xn = 0
which will have a non-trivial solution only if the coefficient matrix is singular i.e., if
A-λI = 0.
This is called the characteristic equation of the transformation and is same as the
characteristic equation of the matrix A. It has n roots and corresponding to each
root, the equation (ii) [or (iii)] will have a non zero solution.
X = [ x1, x2 ,.........., xn]’, which is known as the eigenvector or latent vector.
Solve question to find eigen values and eigenvectors
Example Find the eigen value and eigenvector of the marix 5 4
1 2
i.e., 5-λ 4
1 2-λ =0 or λ2 - 7λ + 6 = 0
Or (λ – 6) (λ – 1) = 0 therefore λ = 6, 1.
A-λI X= 5-λ 4 x = 0
1 2-λ y
Corresponding to λ= 6 , we have -1 4 x = 0
1 -4 y
Corresponding to λ = 1 , we have 4 4 x = 0
1 1 y
Equating the right hand side of (ii) and (iii) and comparing coefficient of λ2 , we get
(ii) Let u be the eigenvector of An×n associated with the eigenvalue λ . Then, the
eigenvalue of
a k A k + a k −1 A k −1 + + a1 A + a 0 I ,
[proof:]
(a k )
A k + a k −1 A k −1 + + a1 A + a 0 I u = a k A k u + a k −1 A k −1u + + a1 Au + a 0 u
= a k λk u + a k −1λk −1u + + a1λu + a 0 u
( )
= a k λk + a k −1λk −1 + + a1λ + a 0 u
since
A j u = A j −1 ( Au ) = A j −1λu = λA j −1u = λA j −2 ( Au ) = λ2 A j −2 u = = λ j −1 Au = λ j u .
Question: Prove that the trace of A equal the sum of its eigenvalues and A-KI has the
eigenvalues λ1-K, ...... , λ2-K are the same eigenvector as A.

Therefore x = 1, y = -1, z = 0
Therefore x = 1, y = 0, z = 0

Therefore x = 1, y = -1, z = 0
Therefore x = 1, y = 0, z = 0
