4. EIGENVALUES &
EIGENVECTORS OF LINEAR
TRANSFORMATIONS.
Eigenvalues and eigenvectors are important concepts in linear algebra that arise when studying linear
transformations.
EIGEN VALUES:-
An eigenvalue of a linear transformation is a scalar that represents how the transformation scales a given
eigenvector. In other words, when the linear transformation is applied to an eigenvector, the resulting vector
is a scalar multiple of the original vector, with the scalar being the eigenvalue.
EIGEN VECTORS:-
An eigenvector of a linear transformation is a non-zero vector that, when multiplied by the transformation,
yields a scalar multiple of itself. In other words, the transformation only changes the scale of the
eigenvector, not its direction.

multiple of x？

Thus, the dimension of its eigenspace is 2.
14. Notes:
(1) If an eigenvalue 1 occurs as a multiple root (k times) for
the characteristic polynominal, then 1 has multiplicity k.
(2) The multiplicity of an eigenvalue is greater than or equal to
the dimension of its eigenspace.

for each of the corresponding eigenspaces.

21. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors have many applications in various fields, including mathematics, physics,
engineering, computer science, and more. Here are some specific examples:
Image and signal processing: Eigenvectors and eigenvalues are used in image and signal processing
techniques, such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), which is used to reduce the dimensionality of data
sets while retaining as much variance as possible. In this application, the eigenvectors of the covariance
matrix of a set of data points are used as a basis for a new coordinate system that captures the most
important features of the data.
Quantum mechanics: Eigenvectors and eigenvalues are used to represent the state of a quantum system. In
quantum mechanics, the wave function of a particle is an eigenvector of the Hamiltonian operator, and the
corresponding eigenvalue represents the energy of the system.
Structural engineering: Eigenvectors and eigenvalues are used in the analysis of structures, such as bridges
and buildings, to determine their natural frequencies and modes of vibration. This information can be used to
design structures that can withstand external forces, such as wind and earthquakes.
These are just a few examples of the many applications of eigenvectors and eigenvalues. They are powerful
tools that can be used to solve a wide range of problems in various fields.
