As for generalized eigenspaces, do these results still hold on infinite-dimensional spaces?

Suppose V is a vector space and $T\in L(V)$. Let $G(\lambda,T) $ denote the generalized eigenspace of $T$ corresponding to $\lambda $.

In other words, $G(\lambda,T)=\{\;v\in V\;\vert\;{(T-\lambda I)}^{\;k}\;v=0\;\;for\;some\;integer\;k>0\;\}$.

If V is finite-dimensional, we konw that $ G(\lambda,T)=null\;{(T-\lambda I)}^{dim\;V} $. So we have:

(a)$\quad$ $G(\lambda,T) $ is a subspace of $V$;

(b)$\quad$ $G(\lambda,T) $ is invariant under $ T $;

(c)$\quad$ $G(\lambda,T) $ is invariant under $ T-\lambda I $;

(d)$\quad$ $ (T-\lambda I)\;\vert_{G(\lambda,T)} $ is nilpotent.

If V is infinite-dimensional, do the results above still hold? $\ $Thanks!
