Linear Algebra Homework: Fall 2006, Set 2, Assignments of Linear Algebra

A linear algebra homework assignment from the university of california, berkeley, fall 2006. It includes five problems involving matrix operations, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors. Students are required to find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of given matrices, diagonalize certain matrices, and apply matrix operations. Problem 48 includes a bonus question that checks for the diagonalizability condition.

Due: Friday, September 29, by 3 pm, at my office
Please write up the following problems
a. section 4.4 , problems 38 , 42 , 48 ( Also, for problem 48, show that the result fails if A is not
diagonalizable)
b. Let
A=

. Write A as
vwT
, where v and w are
3×1
vectors. Use your result to find a simple
formula for
An
, the eigenvalues of A, and a basis for each eigenspace. Is A diagonalizable?
c.
