1.B Definition of vector space
Linear algebra studies linear mappings on finite-dimensional vector spaces .
1.AR^n and C^n
complex number :
- A complex number is an ordered pair (a, b), where , is generally written as , where
- The set of all complex numbers is denoted C:
- Addition and multiplication in C are defined as
in
Arithmetic properties of complex numbers :
- Commutativity, available to all ;
- Associativity, for all ;
- identities, for all
- Additive inverse (additive inverse), there is a unique such that for each ;
- Multiplicative inverse (multiplicative inverse), there is a unique such that for each ;
- Distributive property, available to all
Group (list), length (length) :
Let n be a non-negative integer. A group of length n is a sequence of n elements separated by commas and enclosed in parentheses (these elements can be numbers, other groups, or something more abstract). A group of length n has the form:
Two groups are equal if and only if they are of equal length, contain the same elements, and are in the same order.
F : F represents R (set of real numbers) or C (set of complex numbers) . The letter F was chosen because both R and C are examples of fields.
F^n :It is a set of groups of length n composed of elements in F.
For and , it is called the th coordinate of .
Addition in F^n :
The addition in is defined as the addition of corresponding coordinates,
Additive commutativity of F^n :
If , then .
0 : Use 0 to represent a group of length n and all coordinates are 0,
Additive inverse in F^n :
For , the additive inverse of x (denoted as -x) is a vector that satisfies the following conditions :
In other words, if , then .
Scalar multiplication in F^n :
The product of a number λ and a vector in is calculated by multiplying each coordinate of the vector by λ, that is
in
1.B Definition of vector space
Addition, scalar multiplication :
- Addition on a set V is a function that associates each pair with an element .
- Scalar multiplication on a set is a function that maps any sum to an element .
Vector space :
A vector space is a set V with addition and scalar multiplication , satisfying the following properties
- Commutativity, available to all ;
- Associativity, there is a sum for all sums ;
- Additive identity, elements exist such that they exist for all ;
- Additive inverse exists for each such that ;
- Multiplicative identity, available for all ;
- Distributive properties (distributive properties), there is a sum for all sums .
Vector, point : Elements in vector space are called vectors or points.
Real vector space (real vector space), complex vector space (complex vector space) :
- A vector space on R is called a real vector space.
- The vector space on C is called a complex vector space.
Notation F^S :
- Let be a set, let represent the set of all functions from S.
- For , it is stipulated that the sum is the following function: for all ,
.
- For sums , the product is stipulated to be the following function: for all ,
.
The additive identity element is unique : The vector space has a unique additive identity element.
The additive inverse is unique : Each element in the vector space has a unique additive inverse.
1.C subspace
Subspace : If a subset U of V (using the same addition and scalar multiplication as V) is also a vector space, then U is said to be a subspace of V.
Conditions of subspace : A subset U of V is a subspace of V if and only if U satisfies the following three conditions:
- Additive identity, ;
- closed under addition, implication ;
- Closed under scalar multiplication, and implication .
Sum of subsets :
Assume that all are subsets of , then the sum of is defined as the set of all possible sums of the elements in , denoted as . more specifically,
.
The sum of subspaces is the smallest subspace that contains these subspaces : assumingall aresubspaces of , thenisthe smallest subspacethat contains
Direct sum :
Assume that all are subspaces,
- A sum is called a direct sum if each element in the sum can be uniquely expressed as , where each element belongs to .
- If the sum is a direct sum, it is used to indicate that the symbol here indicates that the sum here is a direct sum.
Conditions for direct sum :
Let all be subspaces of . It is a direct sum if and only if "each is equal to 0, which is the only way to express 0 as ".
Direct sum of two subspaces :
Suppose and are both subspaces, if and only then , they are direct sums.
