Eigenvector/Eigenvalue

Eigenvectors are aka. eigenfunctions

Av=λv\begin{gather*} A\vec{v}=\lambda\vec{v} \end{gather*}

Basically if I apply matrix transformation AA to a vector v\left\lvert v \right\rangle and it still points in the same direction, it is an Eigenvector. It could be multiplied by a scalar value λ\lambda (Eigenvalue) after applying the transform, which means its Magnitude need not be preserved by the transform.

The Set of all vector v\left\lvert v \right\rangle’s are Eigenvectors of transformation AA.

An Eigenstate are states instead of Vector, Operator instead of Matrix but are the same thing.
