What is Linear Algebra

WIKIPEDIA DESCRIPTION: Linear algebra is thebranch of mathematics concerning vector spaces andlinear mappings between such spaces. It includes thestudy of lines, planes, and subspaces, but is alsoconcerned with properties common to all vectorspaces.

MOREOVER: Linear algebra is classically related tothe study of:

Systems of linear equations and their solutionsMatricesDeterminants...

Why Study Linear AlgebraSHORT ANSWER: Because it is beautiful!

BUT ALSO BECAUSE IT IS:One of the most important basic areas in all ofMathematics, having an impact comparable to that ofCalculus.Provides a vital arena where the interaction ofMathematics and machine computation is seen.Many of the problems studied in Linear Algebra areamenable to systematic and even algorithmicsolutions, and this makes them implementable oncomputers.Many geometric topics are studied making use ofconcepts from Linear Algebra.Applications to Physics, Engineering, Probability &Statistics, Economics and Biology.

Cartesian coordinate space

R denotes the set of all real numbers

The space Rn is the totality of all ordered n-tuples(x1, . . . , xn) where x1, . . . , xn vary over R. It is calledthe n-dimensional Euclidean space or then-dimensional Cartesian coordinate spaceElements of Rn are referred to as vectors whenn > 1. Elements of R may be referred to as scalars.For i = 1, . . . ,n, the function πi : Rn → R defined by

πi((x1, . . . , xn)) = xi

is called the i th coordinate function or the i th

coordinate projection.Given a function f : A→ Rn and 1 ≤ i ≤ n, thefunction fi : A→ R defined by fi := πi ◦ f is called thei th component function of f . These fi completelydetermine f . And we may write f = (f1, . . . , fn).

Algebraic structure of Rn

Addition: For x = (x1, . . . , xn),y = (y1, . . . , yn) define

x + y = (x1 + y1, . . . , xn + yn)

Usual laws of addition hold. We set:

0 = (0, . . . ,0), −x = (−x1, . . . ,−xn)

Scalar multiplication: For α ∈ R and x ∈ Rn, define

αx := (αx1, . . . , αxn).

The following properties clearly hold:Associativity: α(βx) = (αβ)x for all α, β ∈ R, x ∈ Rn

Distributivity: α(x + y) = αx + αy ∀ α ∈ R, x,y ∈ Rn

1x = x for all x ∈ Rn

2. LINEAR MAPS ON EUCLIDEAN SPACES

AND MATRICES

DefinitionA map f : Rn → Rm is said to be a linear if

f (αx + βy) = αf (x) + βf (y) ∀ α, β ∈ R, x,y ∈ Rn.

Examples:Projection map πi : Rn → R; inclusion mapRn → Rn+t ; multiplication by a fixed scalar

dot product by a fixed vector in Rn gives a linear mapfrom Rn to R; what about the converse?f : Rn → Rm linear⇔ fi linear for each i = 1, . . . ,m.Distance travelled is a linear function of time whenvelocity is constant. So is the voltage as a function ofresistance when the current is constant.|x |, xn (n > 1), sin x , etc. are not linear
