Let A = [4] (a) Find the geometric and algebraic multiplicity of each eigenvalue of A. (c) Find an invertible matrix such that A = PJP^(-1), where J is the Jordan Canonical form of A.
Let A be a matrix whose eigenvalue of greatest magnitude λ1 has algebraic multiplicity p and geometric multiplicity 1. Show that the power method applied to A converges to the leading eigenvalue at a rate at least as fast as k⁻¹ at the k-th iterate with initial vector x⁽⁰⁾ = Vc and c is a nonzero vector, where A = VJV⁻¹ is the Jordan normal form of A.
