A linear transformation L is one-to-one if and
only if ker L = { 0 }.
• ker L =
x1 0
x1
{ | x1 + x2 = 0 }
x2
x 1 + 2x 2 0
Solve the system of equations:
x1 = 0
x1 + x2 = 0
x1 + 2x 2 = 0
Coefficient matrix:
• ker L =
x1
x1 + x2 0
{ x2 | = }
x2 + x3 0
x3
The homogeneous system coefficient matrix:
1 1 0 1 0 −1
has r.r.e.f.
0 1 1 0 1 1
x 3 is arbitrary, x 1 = x 3 , x 2 = −x 3 .
ker L = span { (1, −1, 1) }
basis for ker L
Th. 10.5
ker L ≠ {(0, 0, 0)} ⇒ L is not one-to-one.
TH 10.7 → p. 446
Let L : V → W be a linear transformation. Then
dim(ker L) + dim(range L) = dim V
