- 3. Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors When a matrix multiplies a vector in general the magnitude and direction of the vector will change. There are special vectors where only their magnitude is changed when multiplied by a matrix. These special vectors are called eigenvectors. The value by which the length changes is the associated eigenvalue. We say that x is an eigenvector of A if Ax = λx. λ is called the associated eigenvalue.

- 6. Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors In this mapping the red arrow changes direction but the blue arrow does not. The blue arrow is an eigenvector of this mapping because it does not change direction, and since its length is unchanged, its eigenvalue is 1.

- 7. Some properties If λ1, λ2, · · · , λn are distinct eigenvalues of a matrix, then the corresponding eigenvectors e1, e2, · · · , en are linearly independent. If e1 is an eigenvector of a matrix with corresponding eigenvalue λ1, then any nonzero scalar multiple of e1 is also an eigenvector with eigenvalue λ1. A real, symmetric square matrix has real eigenvalues, with orthogonal eigenvectors (can be chosen to be orthonormal).

- 8. Some properties The equation Ax = λx can be written in the form (A − λI)x = 0 (1) λ is an eigenvalue of A if and only if (1) has a nontrivial solution. (1) has nontrivial solution if and only if A − λI is singular, or equivalently det(A − λI) = 0 → characteristic equation for A (2) If (2) is expanded, we obtain an nth degree polynomial in λ, p(λ) = det(A − λI) → characteristic polynomial Dr. Ceni Babaoglu cenibabaoglu.com Linear Algebra for Machine Learning: Eigenvalues, Eigenvectors and Diagonalization
- 9. Similar Matrices A matrix B is said to be similar to a matrix A if there exists a nonsingular matrix S such that B = S−1 AS. For n × n matrices A and B, if A is similar to B, then the two matrices both have the same characteristic polynomial and, consequently, both have the same eigenvalues.

- 10. Diagonalizable Matrices An n × n matrix A is said to be diagonalizable if there exists a nonsingular matrix X and a diagonal matrix D such that X−1 AX = D. We say that X diagonalizes A.

- 11. Some Properties An n × n matrix A is diagonalizable if and only if A has n linearly independent eigenvectors. If A is diagonalizable, then the column vectors of the diagonalizing matrix X are eigenvectors of A and the diagonal elements of D are the corresponding eigenvalues of A. The diagonalizing matrix X is not unique. Reordering the columns of a given diagonalizing matrix X or multiplying them by nonzero scalars will produce a new diagonalizing matrix.

- 12. Some Properties If an n × n matrix A has n distinct eigenvalues, then A is diagonalizable. If the eigenvalues are not distinct, then A may or may not be diagonalizable, depending on whether A has n linearly independent eigenvectors. If A is diagonalizable, then A can be factored into a product XDX−1 . Dr. Ceni Babaoglu cenibabaoglu.com Linear Algebra for Machine Learning: Eigenvalues, Eigenvectors and Diagonalization
