Study Notes
Vector Theorems
- Theorem states that for any vectors u, v, and w, addition is both commutative and associative:
- (u + v) + w = u + (v + w)
- u + v = v + u
Linear Combination
- A linear combination involves scalars c1, c2,..., cM from the real numbers (R) and vectors u1, u2,..., uM from Rⁿ.
- It is expressed as:
- c1u1 + c2u2 + ... + cMuM
Span
- Given vectors u1, u2,..., uM in Rⁿ, their span includes all possible linear combinations formed by these vectors.
- Mathematically represented as:
- span(u1, u2,..., uM) = {λ1u1, λ2u2,..., λMuM | λ1, λ2,..., λM ∈ R}
General Theorem for Vectors
- A general theorem applies to vectors u1, u2,..., uM existing in Rⁿ, concerning their properties and relationships within a vector space.
