General Properties of Eigenvalues
The solutions are usually COMPLEX and in special cases degenerate
e.g., matrix
A=I
, the unit matrix has
n
degenerate eigenvalues
.
Now consider special case when
A
is real and symmetric, or more generally, complex but hermitean when we will find eigenvalues are real.
