Study Notes
Linear Algebra Fundamentals
- The mathematical object at the core of Linear Algebra is the vector.
- Using two operations (addition and scalar multiplication), vector spaces and matrices can be constructed.
- Calculus is not typically studied in Linear Algebra.
Vector Sets and Notation
- Vector sets, such as Euclidean spaces, play a crucial role in Linear Algebra.
- A vector space represents a collection of vectors.
- Vectors are represented using boldface letters (e.g., x) or an arrow above the letter (e.g., →x).
- The symbol '∀' in set theory signifies "for all".
- The symbol '⇒' in mathematical logic represents implication.
Set Operations and Notation
- The set of real numbers includes natural numbers, counting numbers, integers, positive integers, negative integers, and rational numbers.
- The Cartesian product of sets A and B is represented as A × B.
- The symbol '!' in mathematical notation represents the factorial operation.
Vector Operations and Properties
- Two vectors are equal if and only if their corresponding components are equal.
- The transpose operator $\mathbf{x}^T$ is used to transform a column vector into a row vector.
- The special vector $\mathbf{0} \in \mathbb{R}^n$ is associated with the zero vector.
- The comparison operators <, >, ≤, and ≥ are not defined for vectors.
- In the lectures, it is assumed that vectors are from the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$.
