In mathematics, a linear operator T : V → V on a vector space V is semisimple if every T- invariant subspace has a complementary T-invariant subspace. [1] If T is a semisimple linear operator on V, then V is a semisimple representation of T. Equivalently, a linear operator is semisimple if its minimal polynomial is a product of distinct irreducible polynomials. [2]
A linear operator on a finite-dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field is semisimple if and only if it is diagonalizable. [1] [3]
Over a perfect field, the Jordan–Chevalley decomposition expresses an endomorphism as a sum of a semisimple endomorphism s and a nilpotent endomorphism n such that both s and n are polynomials in x.
