9.1 Brief recall of basic transformations from linear algebra<br />

9.1.1 Eigenvalue Decomposition<br />

The decomposition of a square matrix A into eigenvalues and eigenvectors is known as eigen<br />

decomposition. The fact that this decomposition is always possible as long as the matrix<br />

consisting of the eigenvectors of A is square is known as the eigen decomposition theorem.<br />

r n<br />

Let A be a linear transformation represented by a matrix A . If there is a vector x ∈ ≠0<br />

that<br />

r r<br />

Ax = λx<br />

° such<br />

(8.1)<br />

for some scalar λ , then λ is called the eigenvalue of A with corresponding (right) eigenvector<br />
