    Is Answer to Subspace Question Acceptable?

    I just wanted to know if my answer is acceptable. Q: S={(x,y,z) E \mathbb{R}^{3} l x^2 + y^2 +z ^2 =0} Is it a subspace of \mathbb{R}^{3}? My answer: It is a subspace if x=0, y =0, z= 0 Let u=(0,0,0) u2=(0,0,0) and k be a scalar u + u2 = (0,0,0) Closed under addition...

    Is a Subspace Sphere Around a Star Plausible in TNG Season 6?

    TNG season 6 Relics Well I figure that they likely don't exist. But the theory that you could construct the sphere entirely around a star. Is this even plausible? Wouldn't heat and radiation eventually build up quite a bit.

    What is the Role of Subspace in Sci-Fi Universes?

    I have heard the term 'subspace' repeated many a time in various science fiction TV shows, Star Trek and Stargate the most notable. What is this subspace they refer to, does it really exist. Thankyou.

    What is the meaning of this subspace notation?

    Hi everyone, I was hoping someone could help me with something. Could someone explain to me exactly what this expression means: H = {(a+b) + (a - 2b)t + bt^2 | a E R, b E R} the purpose is to find the dimension of the given subspace, which I know how to do, I have just never seen this...

    Finding a Basis for a Subspace with a Specific Condition?

    Let V be the subspace of F([0,1],R) generated by the functions f1, f2, f3 given by: f1(x)=1/(x+1) , f2 (x) = 2-x and f3(x) = x^2 for all x element of [0,1]. Find a basis of the subspace U of V that consists of all the functions g of V such that g(0) = g(1)...

    Help with Subspace: Find U of R^2 Closed Under Mult.

    I have been trying this problem for hours. I can't believe I can't get it. The question is "Find a subset U of R^2 such that U is closed under scalar multiplication but is not a subspace of R^2". I know that for U to be a subspace 0 must be an element of U and U has to be closed under scalar...
