(linear algebra) A vector that is only scaled (not rotated out of its span) under a particular linear transformation; a left or right eigenvector depending on context; (more formally) given a linear transformation A, a vector x such that Ax=λx [or xA=λx] for some scalar λ (called the eigenvalue)..
Both equations give the relation x₁ = −x₂. Therefore the set of eigenvectors corresponding to λ = 2 is given by: […] An eigenvector corresponding to λ₁ = 2 is ( −1 1 ).
Use eigenvector when its meaning, tone and grammar fit the full sentence. A synonym is not always a direct replacement.
Eigenvector means (linear algebra) A vector that is only scaled (not rotated out of its span) under a particular linear transformation; a left or right eigenvector depending on context; (more formally) given a linear transformation A, a vector x such that Ax=λx [or xA=λx] for some scalar λ (called the eigenvalue)..
Common synonyms include characteristic vector, latent vector, proper vector.
The opposite depends on the specific sense.
