Linear Algebra - Some Main Useful Theorems

Some Main Useful Theorems

  • A matrix is invertible, or non-singular, if and only if the linear map represented by the matrix is an isomorphism.
  • Any vector space over a field F of dimension n is isomorphic to Fn as a vector space over F.
  • Corollary: Any two vector spaces over F of the same finite dimension are isomorphic to each other.
  • A linear map is an isomorphism if and only if the determinant is nonzero.

Famous quotes containing the word main:

    The main effect of a real revolution is perhaps that it sweeps away those who do not know how to wish, and brings to the front men with insatiable appetites for action, power and all that the world has to offer.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
