    You can get to the result the moment you have the diagonal matrix since that's just -E (a=b=-1). Since C^k = X * S^k * X^-1, and S = -E it will become A = X * (-E)^k * X^-1 = X * E * X^-1 = X * X^-1 = E. Chosing a different a,b would make the whole calculation more rewarding

    my eigenvalue matrix was different so my first thought was that i had a mistake but it works as long as its columns is are linear combination of the eigenvalues in the video. stating the obvious kinda, but in case someone has a brainfart like i did. as usual thanks to MIT for content

    Find formula for c^k nhi PTA lekin C^100 = identity Matrix elements are 1001 hoga esko C^2 nikalo, C^3 nikalo phele put the value of a=b=-1 uske baad nikalo

    I selected different eigenvectors for both of the eigenvalues (for eig.value = b : [-1;-1] and for eig. value = a : [-1/2;-1], but at the end of the calculations I got a different C^k matrix expression which does not yield the original C matrix when I plug in k=1 in my expression. How should we determine the eigenvector matrix so that we can get the true expression at the end by considering the fact that eigenvectors are not unique?

    • @berkayyaldz9580
      @berkayyaldz9580 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have another question also when we plug a=b=-1, we have repeated eigenvalues, so the expression we get at the end should not be true all the time( I mean generally, for other matrices for example) even it is true for this particular matrix because we calculated this expression according to the diagonalizable feature of the matrix.

      @@richea8947 for the first one, I had written eigenvector matrix as b = [-beta; -beta] and a = [-alpha/2; -alpha] and made all calculations accordingly and I got the correct result at the end. For a=b=-1, I think we can plug it in because we have distinct eigenvectors. (we need to first calculate eigenvector matrix and see that it has distinct eigenvector matrix)

      take the negative of non diagonal elements and exchange the positions of diagonal elements, this is the trick for finding adjoint of 2by2 matrix

    Damn I made a silly mistake, took the 1/det(S) (-2 for me since different eigenvectors) to the left of the eq and when multiplying S and S^-1 forgot that I had taken that out and got -2*identity oof

  • @justpaulo
    @justpaulo 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    C for a=b=-1 is just minus the Identity. So C^100 is the Identity !
    How much do I get for getting the 2nd part right ?? 😉

    • @wontpower
      @wontpower 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The problem only asks for the C(-1,-1)^100, and doesn't say you have to diagonalize C. I'd give you full credit!

    Just substitute a=b=-1 into C first, then this will be 100 times easier. Calculating a determinant with letters on the matrix is really a nightmare.
