    Linear Algebra on Khan Academy: Have you ever wondered what the difference is between speed and velocity? Ever try to visualize in four dimensions or six or seven? Linear algebra describes things in two dimensions, but many of the concepts can be extended into three, four or more. Linear algebra implies two dimensional reasoning, however, the concepts covered in linear algebra provide the basis for multi-dimensional representations of mathematical reasoning. Matrices, vectors, vector spaces, transformations, eigenvectors/values all help us to visualize and understand multi dimensional concepts. This is an advanced course normally taken by science or engineering majors after taking at least two semesters of calculus (although calculus really isn't a prereq) so don't confuse this with regular high school algebra.
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

    For those who had to google what null space is (like me), here's a quick refresher:
    It is defined as the set of all vectors x that satisfy the equation Ax = 0, where A is a given matrix.
    Here are some key points about the null space:
    - The null space contains all solutions to the homogeneous system of linear equations represented by Ax = 0.
    - It forms a vector space, meaning it is closed under both addition and scalar multiplication.
    - The null space of a matrix A is a subspace of R^n, where n is the number of columns in A.
    - If the only solution to Ax = 0 is x = 0, the null space consists of the zero vector alone. This subspace, {0}, is called the trivial subspace.
    - The null space can provide insights into the properties of the matrix and the system of equations it represents.

    It could be either (A - lambda*I)v=0 or (lambda*I - A)v=0 . The two are the same, just differing by a multiple of (-1). Because (-1) is a constant, it can multiply into the parentheses and flip the expression inside, leaving the equation unchanged.

    Because elementary row operations change the value of the determinant, so you'd have to "undo" them again anyway; might as well only do them once.

    Is it just me or is there an actual mistake in the calculations of the rows for the second eigenvector?
    The second row:
    -2-(-2)= 0
    -5-(-2)= -3
    1-(-2)= 3, and not -3
    similarly in the third row:
    -2-(-2)= 0
    1-(-2)= 3, and not -3
    -5-(-2)= -3, and not 3

    @khanacademy
    I'm looking at my book now, shouldn't the eigenvalue solutions be derived from the equation: det ( A - [lambda] I) = 0 ? @1:50, I can see the equation from which the eigenvalues are derived from as: ([lambda] I - A) V =0 , which is the reverse. The book says to "find the null space of the matrix A - [lambda]I. This is the eigenspace E_lambda, the nonzero vectors of which are the eigenvectors of A..." The book is: "Linear Algebra: A Modern Introduction", 3rd E, Poole, p303

    This explanation is not generalizable. Lets say R1 has 1 for X_3. What do you do then? I'm just assuming, which means I get it wrong on the homework and test and it takes me longer to do my homework. You need to explain the edge cases better. Thanks.

    I thought for every NxN matrix you have a character polynomial to the Nth degree with N number of eigenvalues that correspond with the same N number of eigenvectors. So wouldnt you need 3 eigenvalues that have 3 eigenvectors each for this example?

  • @Geniusv3
    @Geniusv3 Před 8 lety

    you choose v3= t out of free choice! but if i choose v2=t my vector will be completely different. or can the "t" adjust the vector?

  • @trygvb
    @trygvb Před 8 lety +1

    This is a strange method for solving for the nullspace. It looks like you're arbitrarily picking either v1, v2, or v3 to be equal to 1t. You should specify that v3=1 because it is a pivot variable.

    • @devikabsree8087
      @devikabsree8087 Před 8 lety

      +DanO Yes, even I feel this method is strange. I checked some 3 text books and numerous pages on internet and couldn't find anything similar to this. But this really works. When I created a modal matrix M using these eigen vectors and then diagonalised it using M^(-1)AM, I actually obtained a diagonal matrix. (My original objective was to diagonalise a matrix but I didn't know how to obtain M for repeated eigen values, so I watched this video). And this is the easiest method to obtain eigen vector for repeated eigen values.

    I have found the Eigenvalues, 2,12,-6 but I'm only getting one Eigenvector, (0,0,1)..
    Can someone please help?

  • @ashk0n
    @ashk0n Před 14 lety

    Um I don't think you got this right. An eigenvector is not a basis of a subspace. It is a collection of eigenvalues that are spread out from eachother. For example, if the eigvenvalues for a matrix A are 1 and 3, then the eigenspace is 3+1 = 4.
    The same is true for complex eigenvalues and their corresponding eigenspaces.

    • @TheSharkasmCrew
      @TheSharkasmCrew Před 9 lety

      ***** the null space is composed of only the zero vector, because the rows of the matrix are linearly independent. This means that there is no eigenvector because the eigenspace has 0 dimension. Or actually.. Maybe it means the eigenvector is [0,0,0]. Anyone know?

    • @DrRabbit0
      @DrRabbit0 Před 7 lety

      By definition the eigenvector is a nonzero vector. If you would allow it to be one, than every matrix would have unlimmited amount of eigenvalues, because zero-vector is allways maped (at least in linear transformations) to (another) zero-vector and the later multiplied with any number is zero-vector again. It`s like excluding the zero-vector from basis. Its is L.I. from all other vectors, but he brings no new or even any information to the basis.
