Linear Transformation from $\R^n$ to $\R^m$
Linear Transformation from $\R^n$ to $\R^m$
Definition
- A function $T:\R^n \to \R^m$ is called a linear transformation if $T$ satisfies the following two linearity conditions: For any $\mathbf{x}, \mathbf{y}\in \R^n$ and $c\in \R$, we have
- $T(\mathbf{x}+\mathbf{y})=T(\mathbf{x})+T(\mathbf{y})$
- $T(c\mathbf{x})=cT(\mathbf{x})$
- The nullspace $\calN(T)$ of a linear transformation $T:\R^n\to \R^m$ is
\[\calN(T)=\{\mathbf{x}\in \R^n \mid T(\mathbf{x})=\mathbf{0}_m\}.\] - The nullity of $T$ is the dimension of $\calN(T)$.
- The range $\calR(T)$ of a linear transformation $T:\R^n\to \R^m$ is
\[\calR(T)=\{\mathbf{y}\in \R^m \mid \mathbf{y}=T(\mathbf{x}) \text{ for some } \mathbf{x}\in \R^n\}.\] - The rank of $T$ is the dimension of $\calR(T)$.
- The matrix representation of a linear transformation $T:\R^n \to \R^m$ is an $m\times n$ matrix $A$ such that $T(\mathbf{x})=A\mathbf{x}$ for all $\mathbf{x}\in \R^n$.
Summary
Let $T:\R^n \to \R^m$ be a linear transformation.
- $T(\mathbf{0}_n)=\mathbf{0}_m$, where $\mathbf{0}_n$ and $\mathbf{0}_m$ are the zero vectors in $\R^n$ and $R^m$, respectively.
- The matrix representation $A$ of a linear transformation $T:\R^n \to \R^m$ is given by $A=[T(\mathbf{e}_1), \dots, T(\mathbf{e}_n)]$, where $\mathbf{e}_1, \dots, \mathbf{e}_n$ are the standard basis for $\R^n$.
- If $A$ is the matrix representaiton of a linear transformation $T$, then
- $\calN(T)=\calN(A)$ and $\calR(T)=\calR(A)$.
- The nullity of $T$ is the same as the nullity of $A$.
- The rank of $T$ is the same as the rank of $A$.
