(a) There exists a linear operator T with no T-invariant subspace.
(b) If T is a linear operator on a finite-dimensional vector space V, and W is
a T-invariant subspace of V, then the characteristic polynomial of Tw
divides the characteristic polynomial of T.
(c) Let T be a linear operator on a finite-dimensional vector space V, and let
x and y be elements of V. If W is the T-cyclic subspace generated by x,
W' is the T-cyclic subspace generated by y, and W = W', then x y.
(d) If T is a linear operator on a finite-dimensional vector space V, then for
any xe V the T-cyclic subspace generated by x is the same as the T-
cyclic subspace generated by T(x).
(e) Let T be a linear operator on an n-dimensional vector space. Then there
exists a polynomial g(t) of degree n such that g(T) = To.

(g) If T is a linear operator on a finite-dimensional vector space V, and if V
is a direct sum of k T-invariant subspaces, then there is a basis B for V
such that [T], is a direct sum of k matrices.
