These questions have got me confused:

1. By calculation, I know this matrix has eigenvalue -1, 0, 3 and they are distinct eigenvalues. Can I directly say that this matrix is diagonalizable without calculating the eigenspace and eigenvectors? For all situations, If we get n number of answers from (aλ+b)n , can we directly ensure that the matrix is diagonalizable?

2. My professor uses CA(x)=det(λI-A) but the textbook shows CA(x)=det(λI-A). which one is correct?

Thank you very much.

The questions this week is about diagonalizability of matrices when we have fewer than n different eigenvalues. Recall the following facts as starting points: • An n × n matrix is diagonalizable if and only if it has n linearly independent eigenvectors. • Eigenvectors with different eigenvalues must be linearly independent. • The number of times an eigenvalue appears as a root of the characteristic polynomial is at least the dimension of the corresponding eigenspace, and the total degree of...
