math.colorado.eduA subspace V of Rnis a subset of Rnthat contains the zero element and is closed under addition and scalar multiplication: (1) 0 2V (2) u;v 2V =)u+ v 2V (3) u 2V and k2R =)ku 2V Equivalently, V is a subspace if au+bv 2V for all a;b2R and u;v 2V. (You should try to prove that this is an equivalent statement to the rst.)

www.math.uh.edu1 To show that H is a subspace of a vector space, use Theorem 1. 2 To show that a set is not a subspace of a vector space, provide a speci c example showing that at least one of the axioms a, b or c (from the de nition of a subspace) is violated.

math.jhu.eduThe Subspace Test To test whether or not S is a subspace of some Vector Space Rn you must check two things: 1. if s 1 and s 2 are vectors in S, their sum must also be in S 2. if s is a vector in S and k is a scalar, ks must also be in S In other words, to test if a set is a subspace of a Vector Space, you only need to check if it closed under ...
