That isn't true, espcecially as in the definition of [[eigenvalue]], you are talking only about real vector spaces.

That isn't true, espcecially as in the definition of [[eigenvalue]], you are talking only about real vector spaces. Example:
 +
 
 +
<math>\begin{pmatrix}
 +
1  & 0 & 0 \\
 +
0 & 0 & 2 \\
 +
0 & -2 & 0
 +
\end{pmatrix}</math>.
