**Problem 33: Characteristic Equation of a Matrix**

Consider the coefficient matrix \( \mathbf{A} \) of the system given by:

\[
\mathbf{x}' = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & -4 & 1 & 0 \\ 4 & 3 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 & 3 & -4 \\ 0 & 0 & 4 & 3 \end{bmatrix} \mathbf{x}
\]

The characteristic equation of this matrix \( \mathbf{A} \) is:

\[
\phi(\lambda) = (\lambda^2 - 6\lambda + 25)^2 = 0.
\]

This equation is derived from finding the eigenvalues of matrix \( \mathbf{A} \), which are the solutions to \( \det(\mathbf{A} - \lambda \mathbf{I}) = 0 \). The expression represents a polynomial equation whose roots correspond to these eigenvalues.

The expression represents a polynomial equation whose roots correspond to these eigenvalues.
Therefore, A has the repeated complex conjugate pair \(3 \pm 4i\) of eigenvalues. First, show that the complex vectors 

\[
\mathbf{v_1} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ i \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}^T \quad \text{and} \quad \mathbf{v_2} = \begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \\ i \end{bmatrix}^T
\]

form a length 2 chain \(\{\mathbf{v_1}, \mathbf{v_2}\}\) associated with the eigenvalue \(\lambda = 3 - 4i\). Then calculate the real and imaginary parts of the complex-valued solutions 

\[
\mathbf{v_1} e^{\lambda t} \quad \text{and} \quad (\mathbf{v_1}t + \mathbf{v_2}) e^{\lambda t}
\]

to find four independent real-valued solutions of \(x' = Ax\).
