eigenvector

introduction

%%visits: 3 eigenvectors and [[eigenvalue]]s are used a lot in a lot of places. The idea of it is quite similar to [[determinant]]s, in the sense that it is about which vectors are scaled by the matrix. For an easy example, the vector $\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$ has eigenvectors î and hatk, as the vectors that it is scaling on is just them. a ## intuition ## rigour What is an eigenvector? Transformation A has an eigenvector v if Av = λv where λ is a scalar ## examples tags :math:
