Lecture - Linear Algebra I MT22, VIII


Flashcards

What is the dimension formula?


dim(U+W)+dim(UW)=dim(U)+dim(W)

What are the three conditions for UW=V?


  • U,WV
  • UW={0}
  • U+W=V

What is true about every vV if V=UW?


v can be uniquely written as v=u+w with uU and wW.

What is a consequence of the dimension formula if V=UW?


dim(V)=dim(U)+dim(W)

What’s the external direct sum of U and V, i.e. UeV?


U×V equipped with componentwise addition and scalar multiplication.

If V,W are vector spaces over F what are the two conditions for a function T:VW to be a linear transformation/map?


  • T(v1+v2)=T(v1)+T(v2)
  • T(αv1)=αT(v1)
