Exercise 5.B.3

Answers

Proof. Let v V . Then

0 = (T2 I2)v = (T + I)(T I)v

which implies (T I)v null (T + I). We but need to prove that T + I is injective and we will have Tv = v. Let u,w V such that (T + I)u = (T + I)w. Then Tu + u = Tw + w which implies T(u w) = w u = 1(u w). But 1 is not an eigenvalue of T, thus u w = 0, implying u = w, as desired. □
