4.1 Vector Spaces & Subspaces - University of Connecticut

www2.math.uconn.edu

4.1 Vector Spaces & Subspaces Many concepts concerning vectors in Rn can be extended to other mathematical systems. We can think of a vector space in general, as a collection of objects that behave as vectors do in Rn. The objects of such a set are called vectors. A vector space is a nonempty set V of objects, called vectors, on which are ...

ciphers and was used by Julius Casar. Each let-ter in a message is simply replaced by the letter coming three letters after it in the alphabet. Obvious problem: What about x, y and z? Obvious solution: Replace them with a, b and c. We may make this somewhat quantitative by assigning a numerical value to each letter: 0 to A, 1 to B, 2 to C ...

eigenspaces equals n, and this happens if and only if the dimension of the eigenspace for each k equals the multiplicity of k. c. If A is diagonalizable and k is a basis for the eigenspace corresponding to k for each k, then the total collection of vectors in the sets 1, , p forms an eigenvector basis for Rn. 6.
