Homework 2

The document outlines Homework 2 for a mathematics course, focusing on linear transformations and matrix representations. It includes two main problems: the first involves justifying the linearity of a transformation S derived from T, finding the kernel's basis if T is one-to-one, and determining the matrix representation of S; the second problem requires finding eigenvalues, eigenspaces, diagonalizability, and a specific power of a given matrix A. The homework is structured with specific points allocated to each part of the problems.

(i) Justify that S is a linear transformation.


(ii) If T is one to one, find a basis for the kernel of S.
(iii) Consider following ordered bases

B2 = {(1, 1), (1, 0)} for R2 , B4 = {(1, 1, 0, 0), (0, 1, 1, 0), (0, 0, 1, 1), (0, 0, 1, 0)} for R4 ,

and consider any ordered basis


B3 = {~v1 , ~v2 , ~v3 } for R3 .
