The following question is from a System Theory test with only answers (no solutions). Maybe someone here knows how to tackle it.
Consider the discrete time system $$x(k+1) = Ax(k)$$ with a matrix $$P = beginbmatrix 8 & 2\ 2 & 4 endbmatrix$$ such that $$A^TPA-P=- beginbmatrix 4 & 1 \ 1 & 2 endbmatrix$$ Which of the following statements is correct about the location of the eigenvalues of $A$?
$A$ has only eigenvalues with modulus (absolute value) between $0.8$ and $1$.
$A$ has only eigenvalues with modulus (absolute value) between $0.6$ and $0.8$.
$A$ has only eigenvalues with modulus (absolute value) between $0.4$ and $0.6$.
$A$ has only eigenvalues with modulus (absolute value) smaller than $0.4$.
None of the above.
I thought about moving $P$ to the other side of the equals sign but that doesn't get me any further:
$$A^T beginbmatrix 8 & 2\ 2 & 4 endbmatrixA = beginbmatrix 4 & 1\ 1 & 2 endbmatrix$$
Thanks in advance for the help.

We have an equality between two quadratic forms. Apply these forms two an eigenvector of $A$. You will have an equality involving $A$'s corresponding eigenvalue.

First note that $A^T P A-P=-frac12P$
So, $A^T P A=frac12P$
Let $Av=lambda v$.
Then, we note that $v^T A^T=lambda v^T$.
So in particular,
$v^TA^T P A v=frac12v^TPv$
$lambda^2 v^T P v=frac12 v^T P v$
Note that $v^T P v>0$ for a non-zero vector $v$. ($v^T Pv$ defines a positive definite bilinear form or a inner product)
So $lambda^2=frac12$
