How to Prove the Eigenvalue Property of CrA(x)?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on proving the eigenvalue property of the function CrA(x), specifically demonstrating that CrA(x) = (r^n) * CA(x/r) for an n x n matrix A and a non-zero scalar r. The participants clarify the definitions of the involved terms, particularly focusing on the matrix-valued function A and the role of C in the context of eigenvalues. The resolution of the problem indicates a successful understanding of the relationship between the scaling of the matrix and its eigenvalue properties.

I hava a problem finding out how this is showned

If A is n x n and r is not 0.

Show that CrA(x) = (r^n) * CA(x/r)

What rule should I think of in defanition.

Its okey I did find it out.
 
Thank goodness for that because what you wrote didn't make any sense. A is an n by n matrix valued function of x? What is C? And what does this have to do with eigenvalues?
