Homework # 1: (due January 28) Lots of problems, but they're short.
Section 1.1 (page 11) 7, 8, 14,
23, 24. On the true/false, you don't have to recite chapter and verse
when a statement is true, but your should justify your answers
somewhat.

Section 1.3 (page 37) 12, 13, 23, 27

Supplemental exercises (page 102) 3, 10, 13. (We talked a lot about going from
the RREF to the set of solutions. Problem 13 is doing the reverse.)

Section 2.2 (page 126) 2, 7, 9, 10, 31

Note that the book's definition of the characteristic polynomial is
slightly different from the one I gave in class. The book says is it
det(A - &lambda I), while I defined it to be det(&lambda I - A). If the
matrix is m by m, then these definitions disagree by a factor of
(-1)m. In answering the questions of section 5.2, use whichever
definition you prefer. My definition is the standard usage of the term, but
there are advantages to the book's definition, too. See the
wikipedia
page.
There is no homework due on April 8. However, the first 2/3 of homework #9 is best worked BEFORE the midterm, as the midterm will include material from sections 5.4 and 5.5
Homework #9: (due April 15)
Section 5.4 (page 333) 1, 5, 8, 12, 16, 17
Section 5.5 (page 341) 4, 7, 10, 16, 23, 24, 28. For problem 16, you can either
use the real and imaginary parts of the eigenvector with eigenvalue a-bi (as
in the book), or the imaginary and real parts of the eigenvector with eigenvalue
a+bi (as in lecture). For problem 28, use MATLAB to find the eigenvalues and
eigenvectors.
Section 5.6 (page 352) 2, 3, 4, 10.

day, there will not be time for the grader to get to it,
and I will not accept it.
