Dec 26, 2018 at 23:37 comment added Will Jagy @dezdichado I put in an illustration of the final bit, what happens if a square block commutes with a single Jordan block, for sizes 2,3,4. Suggest you copy these out by hand, as it is a bit hard to make out where the elements of the matrices "jordan * symbols - symbols * jordan" start and stop. Everything must become zero in one of those, which leads to a very precise pattern in the original matrix "symbols."

Dec 26, 2018 at 22:01 comment added dezdichado Apologies if this is too trivial, but is there a direct proof for the equivalence: $(1)\iff (2) ?$

Dec 24, 2013 at 20:49 comment added Will Jagy There are some very nice proofs of this fact: if you extend the field of consideration (such as the reals extended to the complexes) the minimal polynomial does not change!! See math.stackexchange.com/questions/136804/…
