Algebra, chapter VII, § 5. Endomorphisms of vector spaces

For each integer s≥0s \geq 0 we have Tr⁡(us)=∑i=1nαis\operatorname{Tr}(u^s) = \sum_{i=1}^n \alpha_i^s. This formula is also valid for s<0s < 0 provided uu is invertible.

This is a special case of the previous corollary.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
