  2. Eigendecomposition of a matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigendecomposition_of_a_matrix

    Let A be a square n × n matrix with n linearly independent eigenvectors q i (where i = 1, ..., n).Then A can be factored as = where Q is the square n × n matrix whose i th column is the eigenvector q i of A, and Λ is the diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the corresponding eigenvalues, Λ ii = λ i.

  3. Dirichlet eigenvalue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet_eigenvalue

    This operator is invertible, and its inverse is compact and self-adjoint so that the usual spectral theorem can be applied to obtain the eigenspaces of Δ and the reciprocals 1/λ of its eigenvalues. One of the primary tools in the study of the Dirichlet eigenvalues is the max-min principle: the first eigenvalue λ 1 minimizes the Dirichlet ...

  4. Characteristic polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_polynomial

    In linear algebra, eigenvalues and eigenvectors play a fundamental role, since, given a linear transformation, an eigenvector is a vector whose direction is not changed by the transformation, and the corresponding eigenvalue is the measure of the resulting change of magnitude of the vector.

  5. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalues_and_eigenvectors

    In spectral graph theory, an eigenvalue of a graph is defined as an eigenvalue of the graph's adjacency matrix, or (increasingly) of the graph's Laplacian matrix due to its discrete Laplace operator, which is either (sometimes called the combinatorial Laplacian) or / / (sometimes called the normalized Laplacian), where is a diagonal matrix with ...

  6. Eigenvalue algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalue_algorithm

    Given an n × n square matrix A of real or complex numbers, an eigenvalue λ and its associated generalized eigenvector v are a pair obeying the relation [1] =,where v is a nonzero n × 1 column vector, I is the n × n identity matrix, k is a positive integer, and both λ and v are allowed to be complex even when A is real.l When k = 1, the vector is called simply an eigenvector, and the pair ...

  7. Jordan normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_normal_form

    This shows that the eigenvalues are 1, 2, 4 and 4, according to algebraic multiplicity. The eigenspace corresponding to the eigenvalue 1 can be found by solving the equation Av = λv. It is spanned by the column vector v = (−1, 1, 0, 0) T. Similarly, the eigenspace corresponding to the eigenvalue 2 is spanned by w = (1, −1, 0, 1) T.

  8. Riesz projector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riesz_projector

    In mathematics, or more specifically in spectral theory, the Riesz projector is the projector onto the eigenspace corresponding to a particular eigenvalue of an operator (or, more generally, a projector onto an invariant subspace corresponding to an isolated part of the spectrum). It was introduced by Frigyes Riesz in 1912. [1] [2]

  9. Eigenfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenfunction

    This solution of the vibrating drum problem is, at any point in time, an eigenfunction of the Laplace operator on a disk.. In mathematics, an eigenfunction of a linear operator D defined on some function space is any non-zero function in that space that, when acted upon by D, is only multiplied by some scaling factor called an eigenvalue.
