01MA0104 – Linear Algebra – Tutorial - 9
UNIT - Vector Space

1. Check whether the set of polynomials of the form 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑥 with the operations is a vector
space or not.
(𝑎 + 𝑏𝑥) + (𝑐 + 𝑑𝑥) = (𝑎 + 𝑐) + (𝑏 + 𝑑)𝑥 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑘(𝑎 + 𝑏𝑥) = (𝑘𝑎) + (𝑘𝑏)

2. Show that the set V of all pairs of real numbers of the form (1, x ) with the operations
defined as (1, x1 ) + (1, x2 ) = (1, x1 + x2 ) & k (1, x ) = (1, kx ) is a vector space.

3. Check whether 𝑉 = 𝑅 2 is a vector space with respect to the operations:


(a, b) + (c, d) = (a+ c- 2 , b +d -3) and k(a, b ) = (ka +2k-2, kb-3k+3 ), k is a real number.

4. Why the following set is not the Vector Space?


(𝑥1 , 𝑦1 , 𝑧1 ) + (𝑥2 , 𝑦2 , 𝑧2 ) = (𝑧1 + 𝑧2 , 𝑦1 + 𝑦2 , 𝑥1 + 𝑥2 )
k ((𝑥1 , 𝑦1 , 𝑧1 ) = (𝑘𝑥1 , 𝑦1 , 𝑧1 )

5. Check whether the followings are subspaces of 𝑀𝑛𝑛 under the standard operations?

i. 𝑊 = { 𝐴𝑛𝑛 / 𝐴𝑛𝑛 𝑖𝑠 𝑢𝑝𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑟}


ii. 𝑊 = { 𝐴𝑛𝑛 / 𝑑𝑒𝑡 (𝐴) = 1}
iii. 𝑊 = { 𝐴𝑛𝑛 / 𝐴𝑇 = −𝐴}
iv. 𝑊 = { 𝐴𝑛𝑛 / 𝑑𝑒𝑡 (𝐴) = 0}

6. Which of the following are subspaces of 𝐹(−∞, ∞) under the standard operations?

i. 𝑊 = { 𝑓/𝑓(𝑥)𝑖𝑠 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑡}
ii. 𝑊 = { 𝑓/𝑓(0) = 2}
iii. 𝑊 = { 𝑓/𝑓(0) = 0}
iv. 𝑊 = { 𝑓/𝑓(𝑥)𝑖𝑠 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑎𝑙 [𝑎, 𝑏]}
v. 𝑊 = { 𝑓/𝑓(𝑥 2 ) = [𝑓(𝑥)]2 }

Answers:

(1) Yes,
(2) Yes,
(3) No, Scalar multiplication is not satisfied.
(4) No, Associative condition under addition is not satisfied.
(5) (i) , (iiii) are subspaces.
(6) (i), (iii), (iv) are subspaces.
