6 Redundant and Non-redundant Data Sets Our main goal is to determine when a set of vectors does or does not contain redundant information. (Oregon State University) 3 / 12

7 Redundant and Non-redundant Data Sets Our main goal is to determine when a set of vectors does or does not contain redundant information. In the former case, the vectors are called linearly dependent. (Oregon State University) 3 / 12

8 Redundant and Non-redundant Data Sets Our main goal is to determine when a set of vectors does or does not contain redundant information. In the former case, the vectors are called linearly dependent. In the latter case, the vectors are linearly independent. (Oregon State University) 3 / 12

9 Linear Combinations A nite sum of the form c 1 v 1 + c 2 v 2 + c 3 v c k v k is called a linear combination of the vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k. (Oregon State University) 4 / 12

10 Linear Combinations A nite sum of the form c 1 v 1 + c 2 v 2 + c 3 v c k v k is called a linear combination of the vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k. A linear combination is called nontrivial if at least one of the scalars is not zero. (Oregon State University) 4 / 12

11 Linear Combinations A nite sum of the form c 1 v 1 + c 2 v 2 + c 3 v c k v k is called a linear combination of the vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k. A linear combination is called nontrivial if at least one of the scalars is not zero. The set of all linear combinations of v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k is called the span of the vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k. (Oregon State University) 4 / 12

15 Linear Dependence A set of vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k is linearly dependent (LD) if there are scalars c 1, c 2,..., c k NOT ALL ZERO such that c 1 v 1 + c 2 v 2 + c 3 v c k v k = 0. (Oregon State University) 7 / 12

16 Linear Dependence A set of vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k is linearly dependent (LD) if there are scalars c 1, c 2,..., c k NOT ALL ZERO such that c 1 v 1 + c 2 v 2 + c 3 v c k v k = 0. If the vectors are in R n we may say the vectors are linearly dependent over R, emphasizing the scalars are real numbers. (Oregon State University) 7 / 12

17 Linear Dependence A set of vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k is linearly dependent (LD) if there are scalars c 1, c 2,..., c k NOT ALL ZERO such that c 1 v 1 + c 2 v 2 + c 3 v c k v k = 0. If the vectors are in R n we may say the vectors are linearly dependent over R, emphasizing the scalars are real numbers. If the vectors are in C n we may say the vectors are linearly dependent over C, emphasizing the scalars are complex numbers. (Oregon State University) 7 / 12

18 Linear Dependence A set of vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k is linearly dependent (LD) if there are scalars c 1, c 2,..., c k NOT ALL ZERO such that c 1 v 1 + c 2 v 2 + c 3 v c k v k = 0. If the vectors are in R n we may say the vectors are linearly dependent over R, emphasizing the scalars are real numbers. If the vectors are in C n we may say the vectors are linearly dependent over C, emphasizing the scalars are complex numbers. Corresponding language is used for linear independence. (Oregon State University) 7 / 12

19 Linear Independence A set of vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k is linearly independent (LI) if it is not linearly dependent. Consequently: A set of vectors v 1, v 2, v 3,..., v k is linearly independent if and only if the equation c 1 v 1 + c 2 v 2 + c 3 v c k v k = 0 ) c 1 = 0, c 2 = 0, c 3 = 0,..., c k = 0.
