Let $A \in M_p(\mathbb{C})$ and $B = \operatorname{diag}\left\{\lambda_1 I_{n_1} + J_{n_1}, \ldots, \lambda_k I_{n_k} + J_{n_k}\right\}$ as defined in V.A.4. Let $P$ be a non-zero annihilating polynomial of the matrix $B$.
a) Show that the degree of $P$ is $\geqslant p$.
b) Deduce that the family $\left\{B^i,\ 0 \leqslant i \leqslant p-1\right\}$ is free.
