 Solution

The Jordan normal form theorem says that every complex square matrix is similar to a direct sum of Jordan blocks, uniquely up to their order. For an eigenvalue $\lambda$, if its blocks have sizes $n_1,\dots ,n_r$, then its algebraic multiplicity and geometric multiplicity areand its contribution to the minimal polynomial is $(t-\lambda {)}^{{\max }_j{n}_j}$. Thuswhere $s_{\lambda }$ is the largest $\lambda$-block size.

For the given matrix,Moreover,HenceThe eigenvalue $-1$ therefore has one Jordan block of size two, so
