I get the only eigenvalue to be zero, dim(Ker(A))=2, dim(Ker(A)^2)=2, then for the cycle tableau, the first column of boxes with have 2 boxes, the second column will have no boxes? I'm confused where to go from there.

i have to for an exam

wispy basin

are you studying this w/ ai purposes?

lucid tulip
#

no... but isn't this stuff important in other things like calculus and differential equations?

literally u barely do any matrice manipulation

Linear Algebra has a lot of applications. It is not "pointless."

It has applications for people wanting to be broke? What does that even mean?

#

You say you get the dim(Ker(A))=2? I think that dimension should be 1. Then look at (A-0I)^2 = A^2, so find the Ker(A^2).

#

And then keep going until you have enough generlized eigenvectors.

oh yeah, i see i wrote down the wrong kernel, thanks

@lucid tulip alternatively, you see that the matrix M is nilpotent. You then only need to check that the nilpotency order of M is 4 (because M^3 ≠ 0). Hence, the Jordan normal form of M is J4.
