Getting vectors and eigenvalue from an eigenvector problem

72 Views Asked by At

I try to get the eigenvalue m and the vectors a & h from this eigenvector problem:

$$A = \begin{bmatrix}0 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 0\end{bmatrix}$$

$$A⋅A^T⋅h=m⋅h$$ $$A^T⋅A⋅a=m⋅a$$

I started with this:

$$A^T = \begin{bmatrix}0 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0\end{bmatrix}$$

$$A⋅A^T = \begin{bmatrix}1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1\end{bmatrix}$$

$$A^T⋅A = \begin{bmatrix}2 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 1\end{bmatrix}$$

and then i got the highest m with (Characteristic Polynomial):

$$-x^3 + 4x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0$$

$$m≈\frac{3+√5}{2}$$

Now i don't really know what to do. I think i have to do this to get the core of the matrix?:

$$(A⋅AT−mE)⋅h⃗ =0$$

to get this:

$$ \begin{bmatrix} 1-(\frac{3+√5}{2}) & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 2-(\frac{3+√5}{2}) & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1-(\frac{3+√5}{2})\end{bmatrix} * \begin{bmatrix} h_{1} \\ h_{2} \\ h_{3} \end{bmatrix} = 0 $$

But when i try to solve it i only get:

$$ h1 = 0 $$

$$ \frac{√5+1}{2} * h_{2} + h_{3} = 0 $$

$$ \frac{√5-1}{2} * h_{3} + h_{2} = 0 $$

=> so this??:

$$h⃗ = \begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}$$

Am i solving it wrong or am i doing a mistake somewhere else? Anything could help!

EDIT:

After the fix i get this:

$$(A⋅AT−mE)⋅h⃗ =0$$
=>
$$ \begin{bmatrix} 1-(\frac{3+√5}{2}) & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 2-(\frac{3+√5}{2}) & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1-(\frac{3+√5}{2})\end{bmatrix} * \begin{bmatrix} h_{1} \\ h_{2} \\ h_{3} \end{bmatrix} = 0 $$
=>
$$ h_{1} = 0 $$

$$ \frac{1-√5}{2} * h_{2} + h_{3} = 0 $$

$$ -\frac{√5+1}{2} * h_{3} + h_{2} = 0 $$

=>

$$h_{3} * 0 = h_{3}$$

$$h_{2} = \frac{√5+1}{2} * h_{3}$$

=>

$$h⃗ = \begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 1,62*x \\ x \end{bmatrix}$$

Is this the right solution for vector h?
