Exercise 5.C.5

Answers

Proof. Suppose T is diagonalizable. It is easy to see that, for every λ , T λI is also diagonalizable, because M(T λI) equals M(T) with the entries on the diagonal subtracted by λ. By Exercise 1, this implies that

V = null (T λI) range (T λI).

Conversely, suppose (1) holds. (to be continued) □
