Claude Fable 5.1 reasoning
Q must be orthogonal with integer entries, so Q is a signed permutation matrix. PQ = QP requires Q to preserve the eigenspaces of P: the eigenspace for eigenvalue 2 is span{e1, e2} and for eigenvalue 3 is span{e3}. So Q is block diagonal: a 2×2 signed permutation matrix (8 choices) and a 1×1 entry ±1 (2 choices). Total = 8 × 2 = 16.
