Let $ A = (alpha_ {1}, ..., alpha_ {n}) $ be a basis of a vector space $ V $ and let $ varphi: V rightarrow V $ be the endomorphism given by the conditions $varphi(alpha _{i})=alpha _{i+1}$ for $i=1,...,n-1$ and $varphi(alpha _{n})=a_{0} alpha_{1}+a_{1} alpha_{2}+...+a_{n-1} alpha_{n}$. Find a characteristic polynomial of endomorphism $varphi$.




In this task I have a matrix $M^{A}_{A}$ which has $alpha_{i+1}$ in subsequent columns and this $alpha_{i+1}$. However I completely don't know how to do this task because this fact is insufficient for me.

Can you help me?

    Your matrix $M_A^A$ is the companion matrix of a monic polynomial with non-leading coefficients $a_0, a_1, ldots, a_{n-1}$ (maybe reversed, maybe transposed, depending on how a companion matrix is defined). As for computing the characteristic polynomial of a companion matrix, see math.stackexchange.com/questions/10216 (although the asker of that question has excluded the simplest answer).

Hint:
The matrix of this endomorphism is
$$begin{bmatrix}
0&0&0&dots&0&a_0\
1&0&0&dots&0&a_1\
0&1&0&dots &0&a_2 \[-1ex]
vdots&vdots&ddots&&vdots&vdots\
0&0&0&dots&0&a_{n-2}\
0&0&0&dots&1&a_{n-1}
end{bmatrix},$$

so its characteristic polynomial is the determinant
$$begin{vmatrix}
-x&0&0&dots&0&a_0\
1&-x&0&dots&0&a_1\
0&1&-x&dots &0&a_2 \[-1ex]
vdots&vdots&ddots&&vdots&vdots\
0&0&0&dots&-x&a_{n-2}\
0&0&0&dots&1&a_{n-1}-x
end{vmatrix}.$$

Denote it as $D(a_0,a_1,dots,a_{n-1})$ and, expanding along the first row, prove the recurrence relation:
$$D(a_0,a_1,dots,a_{n-1})=-xD(a_1,dots,a_{n-1})+(-1)^{n-1}a_0.$$
Deduce from this relation that
$$D(a_0,a_1,dots,a_{n-1})=(-1)^n(x^n-a_{n-1}x^{n-1}-dots-a_1x-a_0).$$
