May 11, 2018 at 20:23 comment added Zach Is the ability of an eigenspace to be unique but capable of changing bases dependent on the non-uniqueness of the eigenvectors which generate the eigenspace?
May 11, 2018 at 20:23 comment added N8tron @ArnaudMortier Wow we answered very similarly giving you a +1 :)

May 11, 2018 at 20:17 comment added Arnaud Mortier The eigenspace is unique, but it has (just like any non-trivial linear space) several bases. Note that for the eigenvalue $2$ you also have some freedom: any $(x,0,x)$ with non-zero $x$ would do.
