Adding valid cuts for integer feasibility problem under Benders decomposition framework?

Traditional infeasibility cut is derived under the assumption that the feasibility problem is LP instead of ILP and relies on the dual form of the LP. Is there a systematic way of adding valid cuts ...

Is it possible to prove the Jordan decomposition starting from Schur's decomposition?

Schur's decomposition says any matrix $A$ is similar to a upper triangular matrix $U$ i.e., there exists unitary $Q$ such that $A = Q^{-1}UQ$. If we split $U$ as $D+N$ where $D$ is the diagonal part ...
