Throughout this question, fix A as an n×n matrix. If f(x) is a polynomial, then f(A) is the expression formed by replacing every x in f(x) with A and inserting the n×n identity matrix I to its constant term. For example, if f(x) = x2 −2x+5 (whose degree is 2), then f(A) = A2 −2A+5I; if f(x) = −x3 +2 (whose degree is 3), then f(A) = −A3 + 2I.
(a) Using induction of the degree of the polynomial f(x), show that f(A) is an n×n matrix. Furthermore, the following useful proposition can be proved, but you do not need to prove it.
Proposition 1. Let f(x), g(x) and h(x) be three polynomials. •
If f(x) = g(x) + h(x), then f(A) = g(A) + h(A).
• If f(x) = g(x)h(x), then f(A) = g(A)h(A).
(b) For the rest of this question, assume that f(x) is a polynomial such that f(A) = 0 (the right hand
side is the n × n matrix whose all entries are zero) and f(x) = g(x)h(x); both g(x) and h(x) are
polynomials. (Notice that that f(A) = 0 does not necessarily mean that f(x) = 0. For example, if
A= 0 1 ,thenitcanbedirectlyverifiedthatf(x)=x2−1,g(x)=x−1andh(x)=x+1 10
satisfy the above assumptions.) Show that for every vector v ∈ Rn and every polynomial b(x), b(A)h(A)v ∈ ker(g(A)) and b(A)g(A)v ∈ ker(h(A)).
(c) The two polynomials g(x) and h(x) are further assumed to be coprime, which means that there are
polynomials b(x) and c(x) such that b(x)g(x) + c(x)h(x) = 1. (For example x + 1 and x − 1 are
coprime, with b(x) = 1 and c(x) = − 1 .) Show that Rn = ker(g(A)) ⊕ ker(h(A)).
hence proved

need answer as soon as possible. thanks Consider the ring Rix) of polynomials with real coefficients, with operations polynomial addition and polynomial multiplication (you don't have to prove this is a ring). For example, for the polynomials f(x)=1+2x+3x2 and g(x)=3-5x, we have f(x)+g(x)= (1+2x+3x2)+(3-5x)-4-3x+3x2 and f(x)g(x)(1+2x+3x2)(3-5x)=3+X-X2-15x). Show that the function h: RIX-R given by h(f(x)=f(0) is a ring homomorphism. Then describe the kernel ker(h).
