the dimension of V‚ T cannot have more than n eigenvalues counted with multiplicities. If A ∈ K n×n ‚ then A can be regarded as a linear mapping from K n to itself‚ and so the polynomial cA (x) = det(xIn − A) is the characteristic polynomial of the matrix A‚ and its roots in K are the eigenvalues of A. A subspace W of V is T -invariant if T (W ) ⊆ W. The zero subspace and the full space are trivial examples of T -invariant subspaces. For an eigenvalue λ of T the subspace E(λ) = ker(T − λI) is T -invariant
