Define composition in linear algebra and provide the formula for composition of two transformations.
Define composition in linear algebra and provide the formula for composition of two transformations.
Composition in linear algebra means chaining together two transformations. The formula for composition of two transformations, T and U, is (T â—¦ U)(x) = T(U(x)).
What does it mean to evaluate T â—¦ U on an input vector x?
What does it mean to evaluate T â—¦ U on an input vector x?
To evaluate T â—¦ U on an input vector x, you first evaluate U(x) and then take this output vector of U and use it as an input vector of T.
When does composition of two transformations make sense?
When does composition of two transformations make sense?
Composition of two transformations makes sense when the outputs of U are valid inputs of T, meaning that the range of U is contained in the domain of T.

Flashcards
Composition of transformations
Composition of transformations
Applying one linear transformation followed by another, where the output of the first transformation acts as the input for the second.
T â—¦ U(x) = T(U(x))
T â—¦ U(x) = T(U(x))
The formula for composition of transformation T followed by U, where x is an input vector.
Valid Composition
Valid Composition
A transformation's domain must include the range of the previous transformation. Outputs of the first transformation must be valid inputs for the second.

Study Notes
Matrix Multiplication
- Composition in linear algebra is similar to composition in Calculus, referring to the act of combining two transformations.
Composition of Transformations
- Let T: Rn → Rm and U: Rp → Rn be transformations, where T ◦ U is the composition of T and U.
- The composition T â—¦ U is defined as: (T â—¦ U)(x) = T(U(x)), where x is an input vector.
Evaluating Composition
- To evaluate T â—¦ U on an input vector x, first evaluate U(x), then take the output vector of U as an input vector of T.
- The order of operations is important: first apply U, then apply T.
Conditions for Composition
- Composition T â—¦ U only makes sense when the outputs of U are valid inputs of T.
- This means the range of U must be contained in the domain of T.
Visual Representation
- The composition T â—¦ U can be visualized as a "machine" that first runs U, then takes its output and feeds it into T.
