This video explores the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix "A". This is one of the most important concepts in linear algebra. The eigenvectors represent a change of coordinates in which the "A" matrix becomes diagonal, with entries given by the eigenvalues. This allows us to easily solve arbitrarily complex linear systems of differential equations.
