Objective Mathematical problems such as solving systems
linear differentials (which occur in many areas
physics such as mechanics or electronics) or analysis in
principal components in statistics use the diagonalization of
square matrices. Determine if a matrix is ??diagonalizable, and in
in this case, diagonalizing it is therefore the key to this course.
In this context, the objectives of this course are:
• Explain to students how the determinant of a matrix is
defined using permutations and their signature, in particular
in order to be able to define the characteristic polynomial.
• Teach students to determine the specific elements of a
matrix.
• Demonstrate to the students the conditions of diagonalization of a
matrix.
• Explain to the students how to use diagonalization to
solve linear systems.
Content 1. Symmetric group: decomposition into products and signature of a permutation
2. Determinants: definition, properties and calculation rules
3. Determinants: determinants of "small" dimensions, classical determinants
4. Diagonalization: Introduction and first examples
5. Classical determinant applications
6. Diagonalization: criterion of diagonalization (case of multiple eigenvalues)
7. Diagonalization: diagonalization of "small" dimension matrices
8. Partial Examination
9. Diagonalization: calculation of the nth powers of a diagonalizable matrix
10. Polynomials of matrices, canceling polynomials - Cayleigh Hamilton Theorem
11. Application to the calculation of the nth powers of a matrix (diagonalizable or not)
12. Application to linear recurrent sequences
13. Application to differential systems (diagonalizable case)
14. Practical studies
Course Learning Outcomes The student who will take this course will develop the elements of competence following and will be able to:
1. Calculate the decomposition in cycles with disjoint supports and signing a permutation.
2. Calculate the determinant of a square matrix.
3. Determine the characteristic polynomial (and therefore, the eigenvalues) of a matrix.
4. Determine the eigenspaces of a matrix.
5. Illustrate on geometric examples (homothety, rotation, symmetry ...) the dimension and direction of the proper spaces.
6. Prove if a matrix is diagonalizable in R or in C.
7. Determine the diagonalized matrix as well as the associated matrix passage.
8. Solve linear systems (equations differential or recurrent sequences).
