An Application of Sylvester's Rank Inequality
Kung, Sidney H.
College Mathematics Journal, v42 n2 p148-150 Mar 2011
Using two well known criteria for the diagonalizability of a square matrix plus an extended form of Sylvester's Rank Inequality, the author presents a new condition for the diagonalization of a real matrix from which one can obtain the eigenvectors by simply multiplying some associated matrices without solving a linear system of simultaneous equations.
