Enter matrix (each row separated by semicolon, elements separated by comma):

1. Introduction:

Welcome to the Find Matrix Eigenvalues tool! This tool calculates the dominant eigenvalue of a given square matrix using the Power Iteration method. Eigenvalues are essential in many mathematical and scientific applications, including solving systems of differential equations, analyzing stability in dynamical systems, and understanding geometric transformations.

2. Steps to Use the Tool:

Enter the matrix elements in the textarea provided.
Separate each row by a semicolon (;) and elements within each row by a comma (,).
Click on the "Find Eigenvalues" button.
The tool will compute and display the dominant eigenvalue of the matrix.

3. Functionality of the Tool: This tool parses the input matrix, initializes a random vector as an initial guess, and iteratively applies the Power Iteration method to find the dominant eigenvalue of the matrix. The Power Iteration method is an iterative algorithm that finds the dominant eigenvalue and corresponding eigenvector of a matrix.

4. Benefits of Using This Tool:

5. FAQ:

Q: What are eigenvalues?
- A: Eigenvalues represent scalar values that characterize linear transformations of a matrix.
Q: What is the dominant eigenvalue?
- A: The dominant eigenvalue is the largest eigenvalue in magnitude of a matrix.
Q: Can this tool handle non-square matrices?
- A: No, this tool is designed to find eigenvalues only for square matrices. Non-square matrices will result in an error.
