    This document defines key concepts in vector spaces including: 1) A vector space V consists of elements called vectors over a field K of scalars, with K acting on V through addition and scalar multiplication while satisfying certain axioms. 2) Examples of vector spaces include sets of n-tuples over a field and sets of functions satisfying certain properties. 3) Key notions such as linear combinations, span, subspaces, and linear (in)dependence of vectors are introduced and examples are provided.

    Vector Spaces: Formal notions
    Definitions
    The definition of a vector space V, whose elements are called vectors,
    involves an arbitrary field K, whose elements are called scalars.

    The following notation will be used:


    Vector Space: definition

    Field of scalars
    Vector space defn
    Field of scalars
    On the other hand, the remaining four axioms are concerned with the
    ‘‘action’’ of the field K of scalars on the vector space V

    Linear Independence
    • Let V be a vector space over a field K. The following defines
    the notion of linear dependence and independence of vectors
    over K. (One usually suppresses mentioning K when the field
    is understood.)
