MODIFICATION OF LEVERRIER METHOD OF FINDING COEFFICIENT OF CHARACTERISTIC EQUATION FOR EIGENVALUE PROBLEM

Abstract

Eigenvalue problems for matrices arise in all areas of applied science and great importance in many physical problems. The main purpose of this study is to investigate modified Leverrier method of finding coefficient of characteris tic polynomials for eigenvalues. By expanding characteristic determinants for eigenvalue and eigenvector and finding the coefficients of characteristic polyno mials by using Leverrier method and modified Leverrier method. To confirm this the researcher drived the modify Leverrier method with proving and with making simple for solving any problem related to eigenvalue and eigenvector.
