What is the first criterion for subspaces?

hazy dagger
wooden frigate
#

can that be the case in V2

hazy dagger
wooden frigate
#

yes

#

because?

hazy dagger
wooden frigate
#

aT * x is basically another way to describe the dot product

#

if x is the nullvector

#

can there ever come out something that is not 0?

hazy dagger
wooden frigate
#

yes that is it

#

so you see

#

the nullvector doesnt satisfy the condition

#

a^T * x = 1

hazy dagger
#

Okay, I get it, but I'd like to show it also for closed under addition and closed under scalar multiplication

wooden frigate
#

that is enough

wooden frigate
hazy dagger
#

This might be true, but I'm supposed to show it

wooden frigate
#

it doesnt say that

#

also that is very weird

hazy dagger
#

Okay, but how would I normally show that? I want to learn and expand my knowledge after all

wooden frigate
#

like

#

you could

#

it could be that V2 satisifes closed under addition and scalar multiplication

#

then what??

#

like do you see

#

that it doesnt matter

#

and it doesnt make sense to continue when the first criterion already failed

hazy dagger
#

It does not matter to verfiy that U is a subspace of V, but I want to know the way to show it though. Imagine for another exercise!

wooden frigate
#

Well you define two elements of the subspace

#

Say a,b is from the subspace V

#

then you wanna check

#

if a+b satisfies the condition of the subspace of V

#

that's it

hazy dagger
#

How would you do it for V2?

hazy dagger
wooden frigate
#

We assume x and y of V2

#

a^Tx = 1
and
a^Ty = 1

#

what about

#

a^T(x+y)?

hazy dagger
#

This would equal 2, right?

wooden frigate
#

yea

#

so that also fails

#

see

#

but even if it wouldnt fail

#

it still wouldnt be a subspace

hazy dagger
#

What if a^Tx = 0.5 and a^Ty = 0.5?

wooden frigate
#

try it

#

still no subspace as it fails the 1st criterion

hazy dagger
#

Now for scalar multiplication, I'd go with:

wooden frigate
#

,, \lambda (\vec{a}^T\vec{x}) = 1

𝔸dωn𝓲²s

#

𝔸dωn𝓲²s

wooden frigate
#

So the 3rd criterion also fails

#

i believe it was lambda from R

hazy dagger
#

But you just said that lambda = 1, which is right?

wooden frigate
#

yes

#

so it doesnt hold

#

we want to use any scalar and be able to stay in our subspace

hazy dagger
#

What you mean is that for lambda = 1, it is right. However, lambda does not equal 1 in this case?

wooden frigate
#

for the equation to be satisfied lamba must be 1

#

however

#

lambda can be any real value besides 1

#

like for lambda 2 it doesnt hold anymore

#

so scalar multiplication is not closed

hazy dagger
#

So there is nothing that guarantees that lambda could be something else besides 1?

wooden frigate
#

It's the 3rd criterion that we assume lambda from R

#

close scalar multiplication means to use any scalar lambda

#

and still remain within that subspace
