{wiki=Jordan–Chevalley_decomposition}
The Jordan-Chevalley decomposition is a theorem in linear algebra concerning the structure of endomorphisms (or linear transformations) on a finite-dimensional vector space. It provides a way to decompose a linear operator into two simpler components: one that is semisimple and one that is nilpotent.
