Quotient Vector Spaces and $\dim (U+V+W)$

PDF version is available:

This post is for those who know equivalence relation. With the concept of quotient spaces one can give another proof of \[\dim (U+V)=\dim U+\dim V-\dim (U\cap V)\] (example 18 of note 3) without the messy checking on the number of basis.

Jordan Canonical Form

I am recently interested in the proof of this classical result (since I am unable to solve some problem which turns out to be a simple application of this theorem). After I understand everything, I tried to jot down the shortest path to arrive to Jordan Canonical Theorem, which results in this post. 

More detail can be found in the PDF Format.

Reference: Algebra by Michael Artin; Linear Algebra Done Right; 簡明線性代數 (prof. Meng); Linear Algebra by Stephen H. Frieberg and others; Some PDF I searched.
