1 Linear Combination Definition 1 Given a set of vectors {v 1, v 2,..., v k } in a vector space V, any vector of the form v = a 1 v 1 + a 2 v a k v k for some scalars a 1, a 2,..., a k, is called a linear combination of v 1, v 2,..., v k. 1
2 Example 2 1. Let v 1 = (1, 2, 3), v 2 = (1, 0, 2). (a) Express u = ( 1, 2, 1) as a linear combination of v 1 and v 2, We must find scalars a 1 and a 2 such that u = a 1 v 1 + a 2 v 2. Thus a 1 + a 2 = 1 2a 1 + 0a 2 = 2 3a 1 + 2a 2 = 1 This is 3 equations in the 2 unknowns a 1, a 2. Solving for a 1, a 2 : So a 2 = 2 and a 1 = 1. R 2 R 2 2R 1 R 3 R 3 3R 1 2
3 Note that the components of v 1 are the coefficients of a 1 and the components of v 2 are the coefficients of a 2, so the initial coefficient matrix looks like v 1 v 2 u (b) Express u = ( 1, 2, 0) as a linear combination of v 1 and v 2. We proceed as above, augmenting with the new vector R 2 R 2 2R 1 R 3 R 3 3R 1 This system has no solution, so u cannot be expressed as a linear combination of v 1 and v 2. i.e. u does not lie in the plane generated by v 1 and v 2. 3
4 2. Let v 1 = (1, 2), v 2 = (0, 1), v 3 = (1, 1). Express (1, 0) as a linear combination of v 1, v 2 and v 3. ( ) ( ) R 2 R 2 2R 1 Let a 3 = t, a 2 = 1 + t, a 3 = 1 t. This system has multiple solutions. In this case there are multiple possibilities for the a i. Note that v 3 = v 1 v 2, which means that a 3 v 3 can be replaced by a 3 (v 1 v 2 ), so v 3 is redundant. 4
5 Span Definition 3 Given a set of vectors {v 1, v 2,..., v k } in a vector space V, the set of all vectors which are a linear combination of v 1, v 2,..., v k is called the span of {v 1, v 2,..., v k }. i.e. span{v 1, v 2,..., v k } = {v V v = a 1 v 1 + a 2 v a k v k } Definition 4 Given a set of vectors S = {v 1, v 2,..., v k } in a vector space V, S is said to span V if span(s) = V In the first case the word span is being used as a noun, span{v 1, v 2,..., v k } is an object. In the second case the word span is being used as a verb, we ask whether {v 1, v 2,..., v k } san the space V. 5
6 Example 5 1. Find span{v 1, v 2 }, where v 1 = (1, 2, 3) and v 2 = (1, 0, 2). span{v 1, v 2 } is the set of all vectors (x, y, z) R 3 such that (x, y, z) = a 1 (1, 2, 3) + a 2 (1, 0, 2). We wish to know for what values of (x, y, z) does this system of equations have solutions for a 1 and a x 2 0 y 3 2 z 1 1 x 0 2 y 2x 0 1 z 3x 1 1 x 0 1 x 1 2 y 0 1 z 3x 1 1 x 0 1 x 1 2 y 0 0 z 2x 1 2 y R 2 R 2 2R 1 R 3 R 3 3R 1 R R 2 R 3 R 3 + R 2 So solutions when 4x + y 2z = 0. Thus span{v 1, v 2 } is the plane 4x + y 2z = 0. 6
7 2. Show that i = e 1 = (1, 0) and j = e 2 = (0, 1) span R 2. We are being asked to show that any vector in R 2 can be written as a linear combination of i and j. (x, y) = a(1, 0) + b(0, 1) has solution a = x, b = y for every (x, y) R 2. 7
8 3. Show that v 1 = (1, 1) and v 2 = (2, 1) span R 2. We are being asked to show that any vector in R 2 can be written as a linear combination of v 1 and v 2. Consider (a, b) R 2 and (a, b) = s(1, 1)+t(2, 1). ( ) 1 2 a 1 1 b ( 1 2 a ) R 2 R 2 R b a ( 1 2 a ) R 2 R a b ( 1 0 a + 2b 0 1 a b ) R 1 R 1 2R 2 Which has the solution s = 2b a and t = a b for every (a, b) R 2. Note that these two vectors span R 2, that is every vector in R 2 can be expressed as a linear combination of them, but they are not orthogonal. 8
9 4. Show that v 1 = (1, 1), v 2 = (2, 1) and v 3 = (3, 2) span R 2. Since v 1 and v 2 span R 2, any set containing them will as well. We will get infinite solutions for any (a, b) R 2. In general 1. Any set of vectors in R 2 which contains two non colinear vectors will span R Any set of vectors in R 3 which contains three non coplanar vectors will span R Two non-colinear vectors in R 3 will span a plane in R 3. Want to get the smallest spanning set possible. 9
10 Linear Independence Definition 6 Given a set of vectors {v 1, v 2,..., v k }, in a vector space V, they are said to be linearly independent if the equation c 1 v 1 + c 2 v c k v k = 0 has only the trivial solution If {v 1, v 2,..., v k } are not linearly independent they are called linearly dependent. Note {v 1, v 2,..., v k } is linearly dependent if and only if some v i can be expressed as a linear combination of the rest. 10
11 Example 7 1. Determine whether v 1 = (1, 2, 3) and v 2 = (1, 0, 2) are linearly dependent or independent. Consider the Homogeneous system c 1 (1, 2, 3) + c 2 (1, 0, 2) = (0, 0, 0) Only solution is the trivial solution a 1 = a 2 = 0, so linearly independent. 11
12 2. Determine whether v 1 = (1, 1, 0) and v 2 = (1, 0, 1) and v 3 = (3, 1, 2) are linearly dependent. Want to find solutions to the system of equations c 1 (1, 1, 0) + c 2 (1, 0, 1) + c 3 (3, 1, 2) = (0, 0, 0) Which is equivalent to solving c 1 c 2 c 3 =
13 Example 8 Determine whether v 1 = (1, 1, 1), v 2 = (2, 2, 2) and v 3 = (1, 0, 1) are linearly dependent or independent. 2(1, 1, 1) (2, 2, 2) = (0, 0, 0) So linearly dependent. Theorem 9 Given two vectors in a vector space V, they are linearly dependent if and only if they are multiples of one another, i.e. v 1 = cv 2 for some scalar c. Proof: av 1 + bv 2 = 0 v 2 = ( a b ) v 1 13
14 Example 10 Determine whether v 1 = (1, 1, 3) and v 2 = (1, 3, 1), v 3 = (3, 1, 1) and v 4 = (3, 3, 3) are linearly dependent. Must solve Ax = 0, where A = v 1 v 2 v 3 v Since the number of columns is greater then the number of rows, we can see immediately that this system will have infinite solutions. Theorem 11 Given m vectors in R n, if m > n they are linearly dependent. Theorem 12 A linearly independent set in R n has at most n vectors. 14
