Consider the following hermitian matrix a) Calculate the trace and the determinant of this matrix. b) Find the eigenvalues and compare their product and sum to the determinant and trace respectively. (It is a general result for any matrix that can be diagonalized, that the trace of a matrix is equal to the sum of its eigenvalues and that the determinant of a diagonalizable matrix is equal to the product of its eigenvalues. If these conditions are satisfied, you can...

Suppose A and B are matrices with matrix product AB. If bi, b2, ..., br are the columns of B, then Ab, Ab2, ..., Ab, are the columns of AB 1. Suppose A is an nxnmatrix such that A -SDS where D diag(di,d2,... dn) is a diagonal matrix, and S is an invertible matrix. Prove that the columns of S are eigenvectors of A with corresponding eigenvalues being the diagonal entries of D Before proving this, work through the following...
