CONCOURS D’ADMISSION 2018 Deuxième session,

FILIÈRE UNIVERSITAIRE INTERNATIONALE

MATHEMATICS
(Duration : 2 hours)

The three parts are independent.


The use of any computing device is forbidden during this session

?? ?

Part I

In this part, n denotes a positive integer; we denote by Mn (C) the vector space of
the n × n matrices with complex entries. We consider
Pp a polynomial P of positive degree
p with complex coefficients. We write P (X) = k=0 ak X k . We are interested in matrices
A in Mn (C) such that
p
X
P (A) = 0, where P (A) = ak Ak with A0 = Idn . (1)
k=0

In this case, we say that A is a solution of (1).

I.1 Let λ be an eigenvalue of a solution A of (1). Show that one has P (λ) = 0.

I.2 Let A be a solution of (1) and Q an invertible matrix in Mn (C). Show that the
matrix Q−1 AQ is also a solution of (1).

In what follows, we consider the case n = p = 2 et P (X) = X 2 − 1; we are going to


characterise the matrices A in M2 (C) which are solution of

A2 − Id2 = 0. (2)

I.3 We first characterise the soultions of (2) which are upper triangular. Find all the
triples of complex numbers (λ, µ, α) such that the matrix
 
λ α
A=
0 µ
is a solution of (2).

I.4 Show that


 any matrix
 in M2 (C) which admits the two eigenvalues 1 et −1 is similar
1 0
to the matrix .
0 −1
I.5 Show that there exist three matrices A1 , A2 and A3 such that any solution of (2) is
either A1 or A2 , or is similar to A3 .

Part II

We consider the map f from (0, π/2) to (0, +∞) defined by

f (x) = tan x.

II.1 Show that this map is a bijection; in other words, show that this map is one-to-one
and onto.

We denote by g the map from (0, +∞) to (0, π/2) which is the reciprocal function of
f . In other words, for x in (0, π/2) and u in (0, +∞), the relations f (x) = u and g(u) = x
are equivalent.

II.2 Let u be in (0, +∞). What is the value of g(u) + g(1/u)?

Let h be the map from (0, π) into R which maps x to


 
1 x
h(x) = π − 2g √ tan .
3 2

II.3 Show that the map h is well defined and determine the set

{h(x) : x ∈ (0, π)}.

II.4 For x ∈ (0, π), compute h(h(x)).

Part III

In this part we consider the sequence of real numbers (un )n≥0 inductively defined by

1
u0 > 0 and, for any n ≥ 1 : un = un−1 + . (3)
un−1

III.1 Show that the sequence (un )n≥0 is increasing and tends to +∞ .

III.2 For n ≥ 1, express u2n − u2n−1 in terms of un−1 .

III.3 Show that for any integer n ≥ 1, one has u2n ≥ 2n.
III.4 In this question, we prove an inequality which will be used in the sequel. Show
Rk
that, for any integer k ≥ 2, one has k1 ≤ k−1 dtt . Deduce from that relation that, for any
N ≥ 1, one has
N
X 1
≤ 1 + ln N. (4)
n=1
n

III.5 Show that the sequence u2n /n n≥1 converges.

III.6 Show that there exists a real number α such that the sequence (u2n − αn)/ ln n n≥2

converges. Find a simple function which is equivalent to (un − αn) when n tends to in-
finity.
