Diagonalisation and matrix powers
A = PDP⁻¹, computing Aⁿ, and the matrices that cannot be diagonalised.
With a full set of eigenvectors, A = PDP⁻¹ where D is diagonal, so Aⁿ = PDⁿP⁻¹: Fibonacci in closed form, Markov chains at equilibrium. Picture it: the transformation stretching along eigenvector directions and nothing else. Think it: symmetric matrices always diagonalise with orthogonal eigenvectors (the spectral theorem); defective ones need Jordan form.

Factor.
- \lambda = 5, \lambda = 2
Eigenvalues (with multiplicity).
- \lambda = 2:\ (A - \lambda I)\mathbf{v} = 0 \Rightarrow \mathbf{v} = \left[\begin{matrix}- \frac{1}{2}\\1\end{matrix}\right]

Klausimai, kuriuos klausia žmonės
What does a determinant mean geometrically?
It is the factor by which the matrix scales area (2×2) or volume (3×3), with a negative sign if orientation flips. Zero means the matrix flattens space and cannot be undone.
What is an eigenvector?
A direction the matrix does not turn: it only stretches it by the eigenvalue. Along eigenvectors a complicated matrix acts like multiplication by a number.
Why is matrix multiplication not commutative?
Because a matrix is a transformation and AB means "do B, then A". Rotating then reflecting is not the same as reflecting then rotating.
