Ah… that "diagonalizable" is doing some heavy lifting there! I was wondering how exactly you’re going to make, say, a rotation matrix to converge anything to anything that’s not already an eigenvector. And rotation matrices certainly aren’t degenerate! Though apparently non-diagonalizable matrices can be called defective which is such a dismissive term :( Poor rotation matrices, why are they dissed so?!
- srean 7mo agoLove them, those rotation matrices. Take logarithm of the eigenvalues and you get back the angle. This to me had solidified the notion that angles are essentially a logarithmic notion ... Made more rigorous by the notion of exponential maps
