设A是n阶矩阵,α1,α2,…,αn是n维列向量,其中αn≠0,若Aα12,Aα23,…,Aαn-1n,Aαn=0.

求A的特征值、特征向量.

答案

参考答案:利用相关矩阵的性质求之.

解析:(1)令
k1α1+k2α2+…+knαn=0.

由题设
12,Aα23,…,Aαn-1n

Anα1=An-1α2=…=Aαn=0.
将An-1左乘式①,得k1αn=0.由于αn≠0,故k1=0.
再依次用An-2,An-3,…乘式①,可得
k2=k3=…=kn=0,
所以α1,α2,…,αn线性无关.
(2)由于
A[α1,α2,…,αn]=[α2,α3,…,αn,0]


因为α1,α2,…,αn线性无关,矩阵[α1,α2,…,αn]可逆,从而


得知A的特征值全为0.又因
秩(A)=秩(B)=n-1,
所以Ax=0的基础解系由n-秩(A)=1个向量组成,由Aαn=0·αn知,A的线性无关的特征向量为αn,全部特征向量为kαn,k≠0为任意常数.

     The IOC today launched the bid process for the Games of the XXXI Olympiad in 2016. The 203 National
Olympic Committees (NOCs) have been invited to submit the name of a city within their jurisdiction as an
Applicant City to host the Games in nine years time.
     Phase Ⅰ: the candidature acceptance procedure
     This phase involves a thorough review by the IOC of each city's potential to organize the 2016 Olympic
Games. Cities will be asked to reply to a questionnaire. Their answers will be studied by the IOC in order to
help the IOC Executive Board to select the cities that will become Candidate Cities and therefore move on to
Phase Ⅱ. All relevant information and deadlines relating to the first phase are contained in the Candidature
Acceptance Procedure and Questionnaire.
     Phase Ⅱ: the candidature evaluation procedure
     Candidate Cities will be requested to submit their Candidature
File, that is to say, an in-depth description of their Olympic project,
and prepare for the visit of the IOC Evaluation Commission. The
             
 Evaluation Commission will make a detailed technical assessment of each candidature and publish a report one
month before the election of the Host City for IOC members to review.
