Abstract
We have now accumulated enough material to pause for a while to discuss its consequences in concrete situations. We have revised linear algebra facts from a functional analytic perspective and obtained a construction to get functions of matrices in a coordinate-free manner, without the use of the Jordan normal form. This was useful when we considered positive matrices, and enabled us to see important and deep spectral consequences of positivity.
