Jordan and Smith forms of Pascal-related Matrices

We present matrix identities which yield respectively the Jordan canonical form of the Pascal matrix P_n = (i – 1 choose j – 1)_{1 <= i,j <= n} modulo a prime, the eigenvectors of (i choose j)_{1 <= i,j <= n}, and the Smith normal form of powers of P_n – I_n.
