JordanDecomposition
JordanDecomposition[m] yields the Jordan decomposition of a square matrix m. The result is a list s, j where s is a similarity matrix and j is the Jordan canonical form of m.
The original matrix m is equal to s . j . Inverse[s]. The matrix m can be either numerical or symbolic. See Section 3.7.10. See also: Eigensystem, SingularValueDecomposition, QRDecomposition, SchurDecomposition, MatrixExp. New in Version 3.
