... first case every vector is an eigenvector with eigenvalue 0, E0 (A0 ) = F 3 . In the second case the kernel is z = 0 so that (1, 0, 0) and (0, 1, 0) span E0 (A1 ). In the third case the kernel is y = z = 0, so that E0 (A2 ) is spanned by (1, 0, 0). But we already know that similar matrices have eige ...

... all of algebraic number theory. 2. Dedekind domains We are now ready to prove the following theorem: Theorem 2.1. A ring of integers OK is a Dedekind domain: i.e., it satisfies (i) OK is Noetherian; (ii) Every non-zero prime ideal of OK is maximal; (iii) OK is integrally closed in its field of fract ...
