11 12 Suppose V is a finite-dimensional vector space and that T : V V is a linear transformation a) Suppose that T is diagonalizable and that its only eigenvalues are and 1 i First, we ll prove a lemma about T Lemma If v is an eigenvector of T, then T 2 v) = T v) Proof Suppose v is an eigenvector of T with eigenvalue λ Then T v = λv and T 2 v) = T T v)) = T λv) = λt v) = λλv) = λ 2 v Since λ = or λ = 1, λ 2 = λ, so T 2 v) = T v) Now we can answer the question quickly Pick a basis of T consisting of eigenvectors v 1,, v n ) By the lemma, we have T 2 v j ) = T v j ) for each j {1,, n} Thus, T 2 = T ii We can say more than V = ker T im T Let v 1,, v n ) be a basis of V consisting of eigenvectors of T where v 1,, v m E, v m+1,, v n E 1 For j {1,, m}, we have v j ker T v 1,, v m ) is a linearly independent tuple in ker T, and we conclude that nullt ) m For j {m + 1,, n}, we have v j = T v j ) im T v m+1,, v n ) is a linearly independent tuple in im T, and we conclude that rankt ) n m Rank-nullity gives nullt ) = m and rankt ) = n m, so v 1,, v m ) is a basis for ker T and v m+1,, v n ) is a basis for im T Remark By definition, E = ker T We also have E 1 im T because, for v E 1, v = T v im T Since E 1 contains a basis of im T, we have E 1 = im T b) Suppose, in addition, that V has an inner product Suppose that T has an orthonormal basis of eigenvectors and its only eigenvalues are and 1 Let v 1,, v n ) be an orthonormal basis of V consisting of eigenvectors of T where v 1,, v m E, v m+1,, v n E 1 We showed above that v 1,, v m ) is a basis for ker T and v m+1,, v n ) is a basis for im T If v ker T and w im T, we can find λ 1,, λ n F such that m n v = λ i v i, w = λ j v j, and so m v, w = λ i v i, i=1 i=1 n j=m+1 λ j v j = j=m+1 m n i=1 j=m+1 λ i λ j v i, v j = This shows ker T im T ) Finally, we know dimker T ) = dim V dimim T ) = dimim T ) ) So we have equality 11
