Description
1. Let A be a matrix such that the entries in each row add up to 1. Show that the
vector with all entries qual to 1 is an eigenvector. What is the corresponding
eigenvalue?
2. For an n × n matrix A prove that:
(a) If λ is an eigenvalue, u a corresponding eigenvector c a scalar, then λ + c
is an eigenvalue of A + cI and u is a corresponding eigenvector.
(b) If the entries of each row of A add up to 0, then 0 is an eigenvalue, and
thus the matrix is not invertible.
3. Let Q be a unitary matrix and λ be an eigenvalue of Q, prove that |λ| = 1.
