Exercise 7.4.2
Answers
Find the factorization of the characteristic polynomial. Find the basis of for each some monic irreducible polynomial factor consisting of -cyclic bases through the proof of Theorem 7.22. Write down the basics with some appropriate order as the columns of . Then compute or find by the dot diagram. And I want to emphasize that I compute these answers in Exercises 7.4.2 and 7.4.3 by HAND!
- 1.
- It is a Jordan canonical form. So
and
- 2.
- It has been already the rational canonical form since the characteristic polynomial is irreducible in . So and .
- 3.
- It is diagonalizable in .
So
and
- 4.
- Try the generating vector .
So
and
- 5.
- Use
and
as generating vectors. So
and
