• Corollary. T linear operator V.<br />

– (a) There exists a in V s.t. T-annihilator of a<br />

=minpoly T.<br />

– (b) T has a cyclic vector minpoly for T agrees<br />

with charpoly T.<br />

• Proof:<br />

– (a) Let W 0 ={0}. Then V=Z(a 1 ;T) ⊕… ⊕Z(a r ;T).<br />

– Since p i all divides p 1 , p 1 (T)(a i )=0 for all i <strong>and</strong> p 1 (T)=0. p 1 is in<br />

Ann(T).<br />

– p 1 is the minimal degree monic poly killing a 1 . Elements of<br />

Ann(T) also kill a 1 .<br />

– p 1 is the minimal degree monic polynomial of Ann(T).<br />

– p 1 is the minimal polynomial of T.
