converges
- There exists a
generating system
such that
,
,
converges.
- The modulus of every
complex eigenvalue
of
issmaller or equal
, and if its modulus is
, then the eigenvalue equals
, and it is
diagonalizable.
- For a
describing matrix
of
, considered over

Jordan blocks
of the
Jordan normal form
are
