Mr Newton-you have just delivered an excellent exposition on a very important topic on Linear Algebra.Salute to you for your humble and yet professional delivery. Regards Dr.Sabapathy (Mathematician Singapore 🇸🇬)
One of the most important concepts, encountered super frequently in so many branches of maths/stats/economics and even AI nowadays. Thank you for explaining Eigenvectors so nicely!
some people are born to teach... sir you are one of these people! i did not want to study this topic because it seemed complex and uninteresting - however, after watching this video you have made it both entertaining and simple to grasp. thank you very much.
Penso che questo professore sia uno dei migliori che abbia mai visto in tutta la mia carriera scolastica. Dopo tanti anni ho voluto iniziare di nuovo a studiare matematica e fisica perché dopo l'università non ho avuto occasione di applicarla nel mio lavoro. E' un vero piacere seguire le lezioni di questo signore!!!!!
As a student studying in German and having a maths exam next week, and therefore watch maths videos a lot here, I no joke did not understand the title for 2 minutes straight. Why Eigen but vectors instead of Vektoren? A nice surprise for me surely
Iam impressed by how effective and efficient the presentation of your online video lecture is ,am following you here in East Africa at South Sudan Juba
Awesome. Your joy of teaching jumps from the screen, it's almost palpable. May I suggest a video class on the _geometrical_ interpretation of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors. I would love to see your take on this topic.
Great video Mr Newton. You explained this concept so fluently- something I could never assimilate from text books. I know that this idea is applied in Quantum Mechanics. May be next video you can give some actual applications of the EVs. Have a great day. You are wonderful 👍
... Good day to you Newton, I need to add that " Eigen " is not only a German word, but also a Dutch word (lol), and now I'm continuing your presentation regarding LinAlg ... take care friend, Jan-W
@@utuberaj60 Good day to you sir, " Eigen " in Dutch means let's say " from me "' , "' my property "' , "' my possession " , e.g. ' mijn eigen huis ' means ' my own house ' or ' een eigen karakter hebben ' means ' having a character of his/her own ' ... I hope this made it a little clear to you?! ... take care, Jan-W
There's an easy way to calculate Eigen Characteristic Equation of a 2x2 Determinant The coefficient of x is the trace of the determinant (Sum of the Top Left and Bottom Right elements). And the constant term in the equation is the Determinant value of the Matrix.
A German once said to me that only German speakers and Dutch (me) speakers can have a really true understanding of what an eigenvalue or an eigenvector is. And yes, I have spelled them correctly because in Dutch a noun is not spelled with an initial capital, in contrast to German.
Greetings sir, thank you for your informative video. I have a question regarding the eigen vectors: how does one determine the eigen vector from the eigen value if the matrix is of 3x3 or nxn dimensions? Also, Is there a simpler way to do it, because this process for the nxn matrixes in the course of modern control, can be quite time consuming!
Computing eigenvalues & eigenvectors shows-up ad nauseum in Math, Physics, Engineering, etc. A powerful application of Linear Algebra is in Differential Equations, where the concepts of eigenvalues, eigenvectors, orthogonality, inner product, etc. are used to construct solutions.
So when you say that each eigenvalue has its own eigenvector what you mean is that the the x,y values of the corresponding eigenvectors have a proportion between them which you have determined through the maths you very clearly illustrate. But there is not a single vector that satfisfies the equation, there are multiple, as long as you keep the proportionality between x1 and x2. That may be clear to everyone else but I had to convince myself with some examples that the answer vector is in fact a set of vectors. [NB: This happens because eigenvectors span a one-dimensional subspace (a line through the origin) in the direction of the eigenvector. Any vector along this line is a valid eigenvector.] You might want to show what this all means geometrically because I think that gives a more intuitive meaning beyond the pure maths. It would also be useful to provide an example of where this is useful in solving a real life problem such as in ML.
Sir, for a particular value of x1 we have our x2 ,so u trying to say that there are infinite eigenvectors for a given eigenvalue. Cause if we chose any other number instead of 1 for x1 so we end up with another value of x2.
So according to QuantumMechanics we live in a Determinant Universe? :-) I like your style of presentation. I do have a problem with determinant's however. To me they are just algebraic entities that are used to help work things out. But what are they? What is their reality in the Physical World? We use matrices to represent things, like Dirac did say, but what did the determinat of a matric mean in that conceptual bundle? I can agree that their use algebra is consistent and that adjuncts are only a little more blind numbingly dumb. I tend to see eigenvectors as a prefered direction and the eigenvalues are just their scalar, ie an attribute. What I can't see is the 'Physical' meaning of the determinant in all this. If a matrix is representative of a physical reality then its determinant must also be, but I haven't a clue as to what. You could accept that they are just algebraic flukes but that would be to doing what folk have been doing for the last 100 years, just calculating. I suppose I am looking for an intuative view of what a determinant is. It has bugged me for a life time, your presentation has rekinled my curiosity :-)
Question: in a matrix like 1, -1 1, 0 If I try to get the eigenvalues I end up with L^2 - L + 1 = 0 And now L must be complex. Do the eigenvalues and eigenvectors still exist as complex numbers, or do they not exist at all?
The very moment I see your smiling face, I feel happy! You are such an wonderful and passionate teacher sir!

Woaw, your style, pauses and smile , everything is so good
Amazing videos, a full 10! Explained beautifully, clearly, best in youtube. Thanks
Just starting your mix on eigenvalue/eigenvectors and it's great. I've always struggled with these and your explanation of Av=lambdav is very helpful.
You are a life saver... U make me fall in love with algebra.. love from Sri Lanka...
The best explainer in the history for eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
Man that's just pretty smooth to be understood, now i learned about eigen things with a weak mathematics background, thank you sir!
This gentleman deserves more of my tuition money than my university
very nice video! you actually explain the reasons for why we do what we do and it makes all the difference for learing!!

I don't usually comment but, you deserve a medal for this
Thank you so much I watched so many videos and this is the only one that made sense
I love this guy. So easy to understand and great energy.
What a teaching style... Thank you very much. Highly appreciate ❤
Idk about eigenvectors or eigenvalues, but you sir are the real life saver ❤

Great Vid🎉, but can someone explain to me how at 8:22 he got -5 lambda using distribution? I understand how he got all of the other numbers
Great explanation!
Glad you think so!
[1,-2] is an eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue of 3.
Did you check it it satisfy AV=YV ?
No right?

You are awesome!
Hey bro, you're as cool as always!
A square matrix A is invertible if and only if det A ≠ 0.
Wea do you lecture so that I can apply there
Fantastic
What if my X1 is > 1, eg 2,3 etc what will be my X2
Thank you Sir.
What is V2
2 of mat {1 0
0 1}=2 x 1=2
when multiplying 2 and matrix it will become {2 0
0 2} then it will become 4
i just need answer
How can i contact you sir
plz can anyone tell me why eigen vector a11=1 and a22=-1 why not vise versa ?
can someone explain to my why the x1 = 1 in the eigen vector ? Btw great clip!
You just choose 1. You could choose any other number as long as it's nice for you. Just avoid 0 in this case so you don't get [0 0].
@@PrimeNewtons okk thank u
Man u are good
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Question: in a matrix like
1, -1
1, 0
If I try to get the eigenvalues I end up with
L^2 - L + 1 = 0
And now L must be complex. Do the eigenvalues and eigenvectors still exist as complex numbers, or do they not exist at all?
doesn't the first eigenvector be not only [1,-1] but [any number, -any number] ?
also second eigenvalue has infinite number of solutions. Is it correct?
but of course. Eigenvector is kind of a misonmer since it is not unique. Think of it as Eigenspace that is the span of infinitely many eigenvectors...
GREAT !!!!!!!!
