Since similar matrices have same eigenvalues and characteristic polynomials, then they must have the same characteristic equation, right?

Note that $det (lambda I -A) = det S det (lambda I -A) det S^-1 = det (lambda I - S A S^-1)$.

Suppose $A$ and $B$ are square matrices such that $A = P B P^-1$ for some invertible matrix $P$. Then
beginalign*textcharpoly(A,t) & = det(A - tI)\
& = det(PBP^-1 - tI)\
& = det(PBP^-1-tPP^-1)\
& = det(P(B-tI)P^-1)\
& = det(P)det(B - tI) det(P^-1)\
& = det(P)det(B - tI) frac1det(P)\
& = det(B-tI)\
& = textcharpoly(B,t).
endalign*
This shows that similar matrices have the same characteristic polynomial. Note that this proof relies on several facts. In particular, the determinant is multiplicative.

Suppose $A$ and $B$ are square matrices such that $A = P B P^-1$ for some invertible matrix $P$. Then
beginalign*textcharpoly(A,t) & = det(A - tI)\
& = det(PBP^-1 - tI)\
& = det(PBP^-1-tPP^-1)\
& = det(P(B-tI)P^-1)\
& = det(P)det(B - tI) det(P^-1)\
& = det(P)det(B - tI) frac1det(P)\
& = det(B-tI)\
& = textcharpoly(B,t).
endalign*
This shows that similar matrices have the same characteristic polynomial. Note that this proof relies on several facts. In particular, the determinant is multiplicative.
