The characteristic determinant is

det⁡(λ−69−5−5λ+8−5−11λ−2).\det\begin{pmatrix}\lambda-6&9&-5\\-5&\lambda+8&-5\\-1&1&\lambda-2\end{pmatrix}.

Expanding along the first row gives

det⁡(λI−A)= (λ−6)[(λ+8)(λ−2)+5] −9[−5(λ−2)−5]−5[−5+(λ+8)]= (λ−6)(λ2+6λ−11) +45λ−45−5λ−15= λ3−7λ+6= (λ−1)(λ−2)(λ+3).\begin{align*} \det(\lambda\mathbf I-\mathbf A) =&\,(\lambda-6)\big[(\lambda+8)(\lambda-2)+5\big]\\ &\,\hspace{2pt}-9[-5(\lambda-2)-5]-5[-5+(\lambda+8)]\\ =&\,(\lambda-6)(\lambda^2+6\lambda-11)\\ &\,\hspace{2pt}+45\lambda-45-5\lambda-15\\ =&\,\lambda^3-7\lambda+6\\ =&\,(\lambda-1)(\lambda-2)(\lambda+3). \end{align*}

The eigenvalues are 1,2,−3\boxed{1,2,-3}.

由特征方程用 Cayley–Hamilton 定理得到矩阵恒等式。再乘 A−1\mathbf A^{-1},直接解出逆矩阵。

答题过程

展开

By the Cayley–Hamilton theorem,

A3−7A+6I=0.\mathbf A^3-7\mathbf A+6\mathbf I=\mathbf0.

The eigenvalues are non-zero, so A−1\mathbf A^{-1} exists. Multiplying by it gives A2−7I+6A−1=0\mathbf A^2-7\mathbf I+6\mathbf A^{-1}=\mathbf0. Therefore

6A−1= −A2+7I,A−1= −16A2+76I.\begin{align*} 6\mathbf A^{-1}=&\,-\mathbf A^2+7\mathbf I,\\ \mathbf A^{-1}=&\,-\frac16\mathbf A^2+\frac76\mathbf I. \end{align*}

Thus (p,q)=(−1/6,7/6)(p,q)=(-1/6,7/6).
