If v is an eigenvector for a matrix A, can v be associated with two different eigenvalues? Prove your answer.
cannot be associate with two eigenvalues of the matrix .
Proof : Suppose the eigenvector associates with two eigenvalues of which are and that is
, as is an eigen vector so it is non-zero .
a contradiction to .
Hence cannot be associate with two eigenvalues of the matrix .
