~ Vector Spaces 156 Introduction. The concept of Mea in three dimensional geometry, known as 'th dimensional vector’, can be extended to any finite dimensional (n- dimensional) vector even infinite dimensional . Obviously the term 'direction’ of vector as used in three dimensional case is to be generalised towards other way. These are done by using an algebraic structure on set. This gructure is framed with the help of two types of compositions viz Internal Composition and External Composition on the set to be named ‘Vector Space’. The elements of this space are the desired generalised vectors. Let us first introduce these two compositions and then go to the definition and the theory of vector spaces. 15.2. Internal and External Compositions Let V be a set and * be a composition in V i.e., for any two elements, say a, B in V we get a result a* B . The composition + is called internal composition in V if a*f is unique and a* 8 eV forall 2,8 inV. Mathematically speaking ' * is called internal composition in V if *:VxV — Vis a mapping Let V and F be two sets. The composition 0 is called external composition in V over F if aoa is unique and aca eV forall a in V and for all ain F. Mathematically speaking 'o is called external composition in V over F if o:FxV—+V isa mapping. . Note. The word ‘internal’ is used to emphasize the fact that the operation is done within elements within A and the word ‘external’ is used to emphasize that the operation is done on V with the help of an element taken outside it (From a set say F). : Examples (1) Consider the set R? = {(x,9):#.7 ¢R} where R is set fall real numbers. We define @ and © by the rule (%, 94) @ (x2, 92) = +20. -Y2) ana 2O(x,9) =(a%,a+9) where ~ eR 456 ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS .; Then we get if a = (x,y) €R?, B= (2.92) €R” then @@ B = (x, +3,,9,-94) €R? :.@ inn internal composition in R? Again we see a@a =(ax,,a+),)¢ R? © is an external composition in R? over R. (2) In R* ={(x,y):x,y eR} ifwe define @ by the rule (1%) ® (2,92) = % +2591 +92) then @ would not be external composition on R? as y, +iy, eR. 15.3. Definition of Vector Space. Let y be a non-empty set and © be a composition in 7 ie. © composes two elements of. 7 ; R be a field of real numbers Let © be a composition which composes the elements of R. with the elements of V (i.e. © is a mapping whose domain is R x V ).

Thus if a €R,a €V then ao, stands for a© a, if a,b eR then ab stands for a.b + (2) The real field R itself is a vector space. Vectors and Scalars. The elements of a vector space are called vectors and the elements of the related field R are called scalars. Null vector and Additive inverse of a vector. Ina vector space V; we get a vector 9 having the property 9 +@=a for all a in V. This vector 9 is called the null vector of Illustrations. 1. Consider the set R" (or E,or V,) = Rx Rx Rx.....xR (7 times) where R is set of real numbers. So R” = {(x1,%2 5000, 2% eR}. Let a =(x1,%25..%,) and B=(y1,Y20--Yn) be two elements of R”. The composition + between them is defined as and the composition between an element a of the field R and an element @ of p” is defined as G0, = a(x4,X2-00--%n) = (cx 02-0 %n)- We shall show R” is a vector space over the field R. a and Let ayy eR" S0.0= (X1%2--%n)» B= (v1.92) are all real numbers.

But + B= (0,3) +(3,0) =(3,3) €5 UT, because it neither belongs to § porto T- Thus closure property does not hold in SUT. So, SUT is not a subspace. 15.6. Linear Combination of vectors.

By the axioms of vector space, a linear combination of some vectors in a vector space Y again belongs to the same vector space. 15.7. Linear dependence and independence of vectors. Let y be a vector space over R . The set of vectors {ay,@2,-°°a,} are called linearly dependent (or simply dependent), if it is possible to get r scalars c,C2,....¢, in R, at least one non-zero, such that C40 +202 +...+0,0, = 8 If ),0125.04--0, are not linearly dependent then they are called linearly independent (or simply independent); that is 0 ,012»....0-, are linearly independent if cc +0043 terry = 0 implies 6 == 05 nr = Oonke Mlustrations. . () The vectors 04 =(12,3),02 =(3,-14) and 3 = (4.17) of R ey we linearly dependent because we get the numbers Ll and-l in R that Jo. + long + (—H)ots = (0.0.0) =8 30 . . 466 ENGINEERING MATHEMATICs, “1 —_——— (ii) The vector (3,2),(6.4),(9,15) are linearly dependent because we get three reals 1, -} and 0 for which *132)+(-4 )(64)+0(9,15) = (0,0) =0 (iii) The vector 0, =(1,0,0), 2 =(0,1,0) and 03 =(0,0,1) are linearly independent, because Cy0ty + p02 + ex043 =O = c4(1,0,0) + cp (041,0) + €3(0,0,1) = (0,0,0) => (¢1,¢),€3) = (0,0,0) =>c,=0,c,=0 and c3=0 (iv) The vectors inp", 0, =(I,0,....0),05 = (0,1,0....0). are linearly independent, because c+ c+. = q4(1,0,....0) + cp (041,...0}+...+¢, (0,0,...1) = (0, > (G1009---6 a 0) =>¢=0, c= c, =0 So, @1.01,.....0, are independent.

Consider the five vectors Oy = 03=(59:1), a4 =(-6,7,8), and as =(11,25) of over the real field R. We see 2(12.3)+(-1)(2,4,6)=(0,0.0). so, (123) linearly dependent, (12,3), 2 = (2,4,6) the vector space R? and (2,46) are Proof. Follows from the above theorem. Mustration. Since the four vectors (4,0,0),(0,1,00), (00,10) and (00,0) are linearly independent so the vectors (1,0,0,0), (0,0,1,0) ana (0,1,0,0) are also linearly independent. An important theorem is stated without Proof. Theorem 4.

Test of linear dependency and independency by Using elementary row operation on Matrix. In the previous theorems we have discussed how to test the linear dependency and independency of n number of vectors in R". In science and technology we often face any number of vectors in R” to be testeg whether they are independent or dependent. For example we may be asked to test whether the vectors (,5,2,9), (1,4,3,0), (2,3,1,4) are linear dependent or not. We would not be able to form a determinant with these three. If we go to test using definition then it would be more harder. In this article we present the following theorem without proving, tocross this hurdle. oo Theorem.

S = {(x,y,0):x,y are any real numbers } which is a subspace of V3. We see (x,y,0) =x(1,0,0)+ y(0,1,0) i.e. every element of § can be expressed as linear combination of the two vectors 0) =(1,0,0) and 02 = (0,1,0). Hence the two vectors (1,0,0) and (0,1,0) generate s. (ii) a =(1,0,0,0),a.2 = (0,1,0,0), 0.3 =(0,0,1,0), 24 =(0,0,0,1), are generators of the entire vector space R*. For any element of R*, say (x1,x2,3.x4) can be expressed as (1.25354) = %4(1,0,0,0) + x9 (0,1,0,0) + x3(0,0,1,0) + x4(0,0,0,1) (iii) The n number of vectors a =(1,0,0,.....0), a2 =(0,1,0,...0) vector space p" because for any arbitrary element a = (x1 22 ,-%e) of R" , we can express = 44(10,...0) + x9(0,1,0,....0)+....+%, (0,0,....0,1) = X10 +27702+....+%,0,, Which shows that every element of R” ca? be expressed as linear combination of the vectors 0;,0t2,...;On+ 15.10. Basis. Let V be a vector space over R. A set of vectors {ar,a2, rb 8 said to be a basis of 7 if c,a2,...0,, are linearly independent and if theY generate y . Since a subspace is itself a vector space, so a basis of a subspace o be defined likewise. Example. The three vectors a; =(1,0,0),c1y =(0,,0) and a3 =(0.01) #° independent and they generate the vector space R?. So {ay,a2+a3} 8 basis of R°.

Note. In the above example we see though a vector space may have more than one basis, the number of vectors in each of the basis is same. In fact we shall get a result that any two basis of a vector space have same number of vectors. ee Theorem 1.

Ifa basis ofa vector space contains n number of vectors and if an ssother linearly independent set contains m number of vectors then m (¢.€2,¢3,0) = (0,0,0,0) Sc =c, =c, =0. The set A spans § since we can express an arbitrary vector (x, y,z,0) = x(1,0,0,0) + ¥(0,1,0,0) + 2(0,0,1,0) So the set A is a basis of S and so dim(S) =3.
