I don't know what a repeating eigenvector is.

You could make an educated guess :-) Example:

10
11

Matrix has repeating eigenvalue 1 and only one eigenvector.
(So what is the standard math jargon for it?)

At math.nist.gov/MatrixMarket/glossary.html it says

"A defective matrix has at least one defective eigenvalue, i.e. one
whose algebraic multiplicity is greater than its geometric multiplicity."
