An n x n matrix is called nilpotent if Ak = 0 (the zero matrix) for some positive integer k. (a) Suppose A is a nilpotent nxn matrix. Prove that is an eigenvalue of A. (b) Must O be the only eigenvalue of A? Either prove or give a counterexample,
9. A square matrix A is said to be nilpotent if A 0 for some integer r 21. Let A, B be nilpotent matrices, of the same size, and assume AB BA. Show that AB and A +B are nilpotent 9. A square matrix A is said to be nilpotent if A 0 for some integer r 21. Let A, B be nilpotent matrices, of the same size, and assume AB BA. Show that AB and A +B are nilpotent
5. Let AE Maxn(C). Recall that A is said to be nilpo tent if there exists a positive integer k such that A 0. Prove the following statements (a) If A is nilpotent, then A 0. (Hint: First show that if A is nilpotent, then the Jordan form of A is also nilpotent.) (b) If A is nilpotent, then tr(A) 0 (e) A is nilpotent if and only if the characteristic polynomial of A is (-1)"" (d) If A is...
4. Let A be a square matrix. Assume that Ak = 0 for some positive integer k. Then prove that a) 1-A is is invertible b) (1 - A)-1 = 1 + A + A + A + ................ + Ak-1 (This question is printed wrong in the text book, 10th edition. If you have this book, correct it)
a. Let B be an n x n Orthogonal matrix, that is B^-1 = B^T, and let A be an n x n skew-symmetric matrix. Simplify A(A^2(BA)^-1)^T b. Let A be a square matrix such that A^3 = 0. A is then called a nilpotent matrix. Define another matrix B by the expression B = I - A; Show that B is invertible and that its inverse is I + A + A^2 c. Let B = (-2,0,0 ; 0,0,0...
