!!! Overview [1] [2]
[{$pagename}] or characteristic vector of a [linear transformation] is a __non-zero__ [vector] that only changes by an overall scale when that [linear transformation] is applied to it.
More formally, if T is a [linear transformation] from a [vector] space V over a field F into itself and v is a [vector] in V that is not the zero vector, then v is an [{$pagename}] of T if T(v) is a scalar multiple of v. This condition can be written as the equation
%%prettify
{{{
T(V) =λv
}}}
/%
Below [Matrix] A acts by stretching the [vector] x, not changing its direction, so x is an [{$pagename}] of A.
