Theorems from Basis and dimension
All theorems from Basis and dimension.
Representation in a basis
If is a basis for , then every vector has a unique representation
- [1]:Basis
- [2]:Independence and uniqueness
- [3]:Proof
Spanning sets count against independent sets
Let and be finite subsets of a vector space . If and is linearly independent, then
- [1]:Span
- [2]:Linear independence
- [3]:Proof
- [4]:All bases have the same size
All bases have the same size
Any two finite bases of a vector space contain the same number of vectors.
- [1]:Basis
- [2]:Spanning sets count against independent sets
- [3]:Proof
- [4]:Dimension
Counting with dimension
Let be finite-dimensional.
- If a set of vectors spans , then . If , then is a basis.
- If a set of vectors is linearly independent in , then . If , then is a basis.
