About this document
Cayley-Hamilton Theorem Explained by hazelbeux is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The Hamilton-Cayley Theorem states that every square matrix satisfies its own characteristic equation. This implies that when a square matrix is transformed into a polynomial, that polynomial will equal zero. The theorem was proven by Arthur Cayley and Rowan Hamilton in 1858. Students will learn to compute the characteristic polynomial of a matrix and verify the theorem holds for specific matrices.
