Consider the matrix
A =
2
| 0
a.
1 2
-1 2
4 0
a) Diagonalize the matrix in the form A = SAS-1, with S a matrix containing the (normalized)
eigenvectors and A a diagonal matrix containing the eigenvalues.
b)
Is the matrix S an orthogonal matrix? Why / why not?
c) Using the eigenvalue decomposition computed in a), determine (including a short explanation!)
the rank of the matrix A.
b. the determinant of the matrix A.
C. the null space of the matrix A.
d) Determine if the matrix B = (A+A¹)´¹ is positive definite, negative definite or indefinite, without
computing its eigenvalue decomposition.
(Hint: use the elimination method and Hermite's theorem).
