    Study Notes

    Replacement Theorem Corollaries

    • Basis Consistency: In any vector space V with a finite basis, all bases have the same number of vectors, indicating a fixed dimension.

    • Generating Sets and Basis: For a vector space V of dimension n, any finite generating set must have at least n vectors, and if it has exactly n vectors, it qualifies as a basis.

    • Linear Independence and Basis: An independent subset of V containing exactly n vectors forms a basis for V, confirming that linear independence is crucial for basing.

    • Extension of Independent Sets: Every linearly independent subset of V can be expanded to a full basis of V, demonstrating that independence can form a foundation for the space.

    • Vector Space Dimension: The dimension of vector space V is defined as the unique count of vectors found in any basis, establishing a measure for the space's size and complexity.
