Proving the dimension of the cyclic subspace is an even number if there are no eigenvalues for the operator
$V$ is a finite vector space above the real numbers. $ fin operatorname{End}(v)$ with no eigenvalues. Prove that for all $vin V$ the dimension of cylic subspace $cal Z(v) $ is an even number.
Somehow this makes to me since every two following vector in the ordered base would be non-linearly dependent, but I can't find a formal proof for this.

Let $vin V$ be a vector and $Z$ its associated cyclic space. Suppose that the dimension of $Z$ is odd, so that the set $leftlbrace v, Tv, ldots, T^kvrightrbrace$ is a base for $Z$ for some $k$ even integer (dimension $k+1$), from this we get a polynomial
$T^{k+1}v+alpha_kT^kv+cdots+alpha_1 Tv+alpha_0 v=0$, so that $T$ restricted to the cyclic space has polynomial equal to $p(x)=x^{k+1}+alpha_kx^{k}+cdots+alpha_1 x+alpha_0$ that vanishes in $T$ and which have a real root (odd degree), we have that the minimal polynomial divides $p(x)$ but if the minimal polynomial is not equal to $p(x)$ it has lower degree, but that contradicts the fact that $leftlbrace v, Tv, ldots, T^kvrightrbrace$ is a base for $Z$. Therefore, $T$ have a real eigenvalue.

Let $vin V$ be a vector and $Z$ its associated cyclic space. Suppose that the dimension of $Z$ is odd, so that the set $leftlbrace v, Tv, ldots, T^kvrightrbrace$ is a base for $Z$ for some $k$ even integer (dimension $k+1$), from this we get a polynomial
$T^{k+1}v+alpha_kT^kv+cdots+alpha_1 Tv+alpha_0 v=0$, so that $T$ restricted to the cyclic space has polynomial equal to $p(x)=x^{k+1}+alpha_kx^{k}+cdots+alpha_1 x+alpha_0$ that vanishes in $T$ and which have a real root (odd degree), we have that the minimal polynomial divides $p(x)$ but if the minimal polynomial is not equal to $p(x)$ it has lower degree, but that contradicts the fact that $leftlbrace v, Tv, ldots, T^kvrightrbrace$ is a base for $Z$. Therefore, $T$ have a real eigenvalue.
