    Instructor: Gilbert Strang
    The eigenvectors remain in the same direction when multiplied by the matrix. Subtracting an eigenvalue from the diagonal leaves a singular matrix: determinant zero. An n by n matrix has n eigenvalues.

    I wish I could someday bump into Dr. Strang in a supermarket because I want to salute to him.
    A while back when I was learning algebra in college, I was paying tuition to my own professor (didn't learn anything from him) while learning everything from Dr.Strang's older videos for free. I am very grateful until this day and always will be.

    These are powerful linear algebra concepts. Linear algebra is a power tool in signal and systems theory, which is a part of the electrical engineering program. When I took this class at the University of Maryland College Park years ago there was a little emphasis on linear algebra. Dr. Strang thank you so much for your contribution to the subject.

    @FloppyDobbys 7 років тому +11

    It makes intuitive sense that the Eigen vector remains the same with A^n because we can see A^n as just applying the same transformation n times. Applying the same n times doesn't change the direction of the eigen vectors.
    For example, If we apply a sheer matrix 3 times to a vector. This doesn't change the eigen vector direction but it will change the magnitude of the sheering because we apply it three times rather than one time so of course the eigen value associated with the composition of all three together must be the same magnitude change if we applied sheer as three separate transformations.

    This is a brilliant video: he wrote all the stuff on the board before he started the camera. The guy's a freak!
    This will horrible shock to all the people who think that UA-cam is a technology for showing the back of people's heads as they scribble on the blackboard, but so be it. The shock will loosen them up for the other one to come: the guy doesn't talk for ten minutes and then say "without further ado, let's get started." This Strang guy has shown us the etymology of the word "strange."

    • @carultch
      @carultch Рік тому

      It's what's called the Ansatz solution, or as I like to call, the prototype solution. It's a solution form we assume, because of experience with the exponential function and its favorable features when it comes to differentiation.

    @qtmomo 5 років тому

    Can someone explain to me how he did work in advance? If you follow 18.06 the chain of thoughts is kinda opposite or did I get something wrong?
    You first find the eigenvalue then you plug in to find the eigenvector right?

    • @carultch
      @carultch Рік тому

      You find the Eigenvalue first. Then you plug it into the diagonals along the given square matrix, and multiply that square matrix with the eigenvector as a vertical matrix. Equate it to the zero vector as a vertical matrix.
      This will create a system of equations with at least one of them being redundant. Let one of your terms of the Eigenvalue be 1 or any other convenient number, and solve for the remaining terms. Then you'll have your eigenvector corresponding to that eigenvalue. Repeat for the other eigenvalue(s).

    How does the n at 15:30 relate to time dependence? I don't see how each time step is another equation.

    • @simonelgarrad
      @simonelgarrad 7 років тому

      Alexandra Boehmke yeah what does it mean that all the time dependence is in the exponential??..

    • @Lolwutdesu9000
      @Lolwutdesu9000 7 років тому

      simonel garrad because the t is in the exponential. X is a variable that doesn't depend on time.

    • @materiasacra
      @materiasacra 7 років тому

      Look at the original differential equation: dy/dt=Ay. Think of dt as a finite tiny time step, and rewrite: dy = Ay dt. This says that the change in y over the course of time step t->t+dt is proportional to the duration of the time step and Ay. So the matrix A 'generates' the temporal change by operating on y, for tiny time steps. In physics we call i times A the 'Hamiltonian' of the system. (The i is there for convenience in a wider context.)
      Now what about the evolution over a longer time interval [0,t]? We split it up into n tiny steps of duration dt = t/n, and apply dy = Ay dt over and over again:
      y(0+dt) = y(0) + dy = y(t) + Ay(0) dt = (1+Adt) y(0)
      y(0+2dt) = y(0+dt) + Ay(0+dt)dt = (1+Adt)^2 y(0)
      y(0+3dt) = y(0+2dt) + Ay(0+2dt)dt = (1+Adt)^3 y(0)
      ....
      y(0+ndt) = y(0+(n-1)dt) + Ay(0+(n-1)dt)dt = (1+Adt)^n y(0)
      That last equation can be written y(t) = (1+At/n)^n y(0). Here you have the n-th power of a (scaled and shifted) matrix A determining the time evolution of y.
      The formulation in discrete time steps may or may not be the most convenient. If we want, we can take the limit of n -> infinity, thus making the steps dt arbitrarily small while having arbitrarily many of them in inverse proportion. Then we find:
      y(t) = e^(At) y(0).
      This is all well and pleasing to the eye, but if you ask: what does an exponential function of a matrix MEAN, we have to revert back to the series expansion of the exponential:
      y(t) = sum_j (1/j!)(At)^j y(0)
      which takes us right back to powers of a matrix.
