Consider the matrices P =

3 1
1 3

and S =
4 2
2 4

Calculate P^n and S^n for different values of n and describe any patterns you observe.

I cannot find any patterns at all. I would really appreciate any help at all. Thanks!

I also have to generalize any patterns in the following matrix:

k+1 k-1
k-1 k+1

by considering various values of k.
