This document provides information about eigenvalues and eigenvectors. It defines eigenvalues and eigenvectors as scalars (λ) and vectors (x) that satisfy the equation Ax = λx, where A is a matrix. It discusses properties of eigenvalues including that the sum of eigenvalues is the trace of A, and the product is the determinant. The characteristic equation is defined as det(A - λI) = 0, where the roots are the eigenvalues. Cayley-Hamilton theorem states that every matrix satisfies its own characteristic equation. Examples are given to demonstrate Cayley-Hamilton theorem.
