Rotations have eigenvectors: a 2D rotation has two complex eigenvectors, a 3D rotation has one real and two complex eigenvectors, ...
- whatshisface 8y agoThat's a fair and true catch, but I can cover myself by pointing out that the article was only talking about matrices in R^(m x n). ;)
- sakuronto 8y agoWhen your field of interest is the reals, those complex eigenvectors don't matter.
