Feb 23, 2011 · 9 Eigenvalues and eigenvectors are central to the definition of measurement in quantum mechanics Measurements are what you do during experiments, so this is obviously of central …

I think eigenvalue product corresponding eigenvector has same effect as the matrix product eigenvector geometrically. I think my former understanding may be too naive so that I cannot find the link …

There are already good answers about importance of eigenvalues / eigenvectors, such as this question and some others, as well as this Wikipedia article. I know the theory and these examples, but n...

It is true that the eigenvalues (counting multiplicity) of AB A B are the same as those of BA B A. This is a corollary of Theorem 1.3.22 in the second edition of "Matrix Analysis" by Horn and Johnson, which is …

Dec 4, 2014 · What is the geometric meaning of a $3 \\times 3$ matrix having all three eigenvalues as zero? I have interpretations in mind for $0$, $1$, and $2$ eigenvalues being zero, but what about all …

Jul 5, 2015 · 1) If a matrix has 1 eigenvalue as zero, the dimension of its kernel may be 1 or more (depends upon the number of other eigenvalues). 2) If it has n distinct eigenvalues its rank is atleast n.

I am trying to prove some statements about singular value decomposition, but I am not sure what the difference between singular value and eigenvalue is. Is "singular value" just another name for

Oct 31, 2013 · 28 Trace is preserved under similarity and every matrix is similar to a Jordan block matrix. Since the Jordan block matrix has its eigenvalues on the diagonal, its trace is the sum (with …

Sep 2, 2021 · There seem to be two accepted definitions for simple eigenvalues. The definitions involve algebraic multiplicity and geometric multiplicity. When space has a finite dimension, the most used is …
