    What defines a valeur propre?

    Exists if a non-zero vector satisfies f(x) = λx.

    What is a vecteur propre?

    A non-zero vector that satisfies f(x) = λx for some λ.

    How is a sous espace propre defined?

    Equal to the kernel of f - λId_E.

    What condition indicates a valeur propre?

    The endomorphism f - λId_E is non-injective.

    What is the characteristic polynomial P_A(λ)?

    P_A(λ) = det(A - λI_n).

    What does diagonalisation of a matrix imply?

    There exists a basis of eigenvectors for the matrix.

    What is the Cayley-Hamilton theorem?

    States that P_A(A) = 0 for the characteristic polynomial.

    What happens if a matrix is diagonalisable?

    It can be expressed as A = PDP^(-1) for some diagonal D.

    What is the implication of a matrix being trigonalisable?

    Its characteristic polynomial is factored over R.

    How do you calculate the k-th power of a matrix?

    Use A^k = P D^k P^(-1) if A is diagonalisable.
