    Linear Algebra: Equivalence of Linear Transformations

    Ok for the first question, two lts B and C are equivalent iff there exist lts E and F such that B = E^-1 C F Now let E = P and let F=Q, we have B= P^-1 C Q or PB = CQ so this means that the lts P and Q must be invertible?

    Linear Algebra: Equivalence of Linear Transformations

    Homework Statement 1) two linear transformations B and C are equivalent iff there exist invertible linear transformations P and Q such that PB=CQ 2) if A and B are equivalent then so are A' and B' in dual space 3) Do there exist linear transformations A and B such that A and B are equivalent...

    Finite dimensional space

    Homework Statement How could I prove that the subset of a finite dimensional space is also finite dimensional? Homework Equations N/A The Attempt at a Solution I think it's more intuitive in the sense that since the vector space is finite dimensional the subset is forcibly finite...

    Linear Algebra(functionals, linear independence)

    Homework Statement Define linear functionals lk on Pn by lk(p) = p(tk) Show that the lk are linearly independent. Homework Equations q1(t)= (t-t2)(t-t3)...(t-tn) The Attempt at a Solution I really don't know where to start. I do have the following equation: If the lks are...

    Find Inner Products of Vectors in C3

    Homework Statement The vectors x1 = (1,1,1), x2=(1,1,-1), x3= (1, -1, -1) form a basis of C3. If {y1, y2, y3} is the dual basis, and if x= (0,1,0), find [x,y1], [x,y2]] and [x,y3].Homework Equations N/A The Attempt at a Solution Ok, first I know that y1= (1,1,1), y2= (1,1,-1) and y3= (1,-1,-1)...

    Abstract Linear Algebra: Dual Basis

    Ok, so let x=(\xi1,\xi2,\xi3) (where \xi1=\xi2) and let y be the functional such that y = \xi1+\xi2+0*\xi3 So for xi (i from 0 to n) y(xi) would equal 0.

    Abstract Linear Algebra: Dual Basis

    Homework Statement Define a non-zero linear functional y on C^2 such that if x1=(1,1,1) and x2=(1,1,-1), then [x1,y]=[x2,y]=0. Homework Equations N/A The Attempt at a Solution Le X = {x1,x2,...,xn} be a basis in C3 whose first m elements are in M (and form a basis in M). Let X' be...
