Original question and givens

Over R, the 2×2 matrix is M=[[-11, 0], [0, 3]]. Is λ=3, v=[0, 1] a real eigenpair under the nonzero-eigenvector convention?

  • G001 — Over R, the 2×2 matrix is M=[[-11, 0], [0, 3]]. Is λ=3, v=[0, 1] a real eigenpair under the nonzero-eigenvector convention?

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source roles = [qf-eigenpair-candidate, eigenpair, domain, reals]

After

derived = [[NONZERO_vector_and_equality_YesNo]]

Conditions: none

Check THIS source interface:distance uses ONLY its complete coordinate frame;other families use a domain.Discrete operations use local hyphens,legacy banks underscores.Retain family-specific ordered output types and original bilingual data/status.

S012 · implies

Before

source roles = [[[-11, 0], [0, 3]], 3, [0, 1], eigenpair]

After

derived = [[0, 3], [0, 3], [0, 0], Yes, Yes, Yes]

Conditions: none

Check Mv=λv in EVERY row,then SEPARATELY test nonzero v.An eigenpair needs BOTH;kernel membership needs only(M−λI)v=0,so the zero vector is always in the kernel WITHOUT establishing that λ is an eigenvalue.
