Welcome! You have found the homepage of the Summer 2024 manifestation of Math 218.
We can check if l
is an eigenvalue of A
by
studying (l*identity_matrix(A.nrows())-A).rref()
.
More efficiently, we can directly check if l
is an eigenvalue
of A
with (l*identity_matrix(A.nrows())-A).is_singular()
.
The command (l*identity_matrix(A.nrows())-A).right_nullity()
calculates the geometric multiplicity of an eigenvalue.
