The generalized eigenspace of a linear transformation on a finite-dimensional vector
space associated with an eigenvalue
is
for any sufficiently large
, where
is the identity map. One may
take
equal to the dimension of the space. It is the direct
sum of the invariant subspaces corresponding to
all Jordan blocks belonging to
.
