Abstract

An efficient method is proposed for computing the structure of Jordan blocks of a matrix of integers or rational numbers by exact computation. We have given a method for computing Jordan chains of a matrix with exact computation. However, for deriving just the structure of Jordan chains, the algorithm can be reduced to increase its efficiency. We propose a modification of the algorithm for that purpose. Results of numerical experiments are given.
