Student[LinearAlgebra][IsSimilar] - determine if two Matrices are similar
Calling Sequence
IsSimilar(A, B, options)
Parameters
A
-
square Matrix
B
options
(optional) parameters; for a complete list, see LinearAlgebra[IsSimilar]
Description
The IsSimilar(A, B) command returns false if A and B are not similar, and otherwise returns the expression sequence true, P, where P is the similarity transformation matrix, that is, .
If either of the Matrices has a floating-point data type, then each must evaluate to a purely floating-point Matrix. In this case, the result of IsSimilar is achieved by making a numeric comparison of the eigenvalues of each Matrix.
