Exercise 5.4.26

Answers

Let {v1,v2,,vn} be those eigenvectors corresponding to n distinct eigenvalues. Pick

v = v1 + v2 + + vn

and say W to be the T-cyclic subspace generated by v. By Exercise 5.4.23 we know that W must contains all vi’s. But this means the dimension of W is n and the set

{v,T(v),,Tn1(v)}

is a basis by Theorem 5.22
