  • Vectors in R^n obey a list of rules, things like commutivity of vector addition that a+b = b+a as vectors. However, we can abstract this list of rules and introduce the general concept of a vector space. A vector space has elements that might be all kinds of weird things, but as long as they obey the same list of rules, they are a vector space. And the key here is that all the things we have done in linear algebra extend to this new situation too! Our first new example is polynomial of degree less than or equal 2, which have a natural "vector" addition and scalar multiplication.

    Learning mathematics is best done by actually DOING mathematics. A video like this can only ever be a starting point. I might show you the basic ideas, definitions, formulas, and examples, but to truly master math means that you have to spend time - a lot of time! - sitting down and trying problems yourself, asking questions, and thinking about mathematics. So before you go on to the next video, pause and go THINK.

    You've mentioned at least twice in the video that translation between different vector spaces (specially from Rn to other vector spaces) would be of great use and importance; So I wish you provided an example of such translation as well. But this is very helpful, makes some things feel less abstract to me. Thanks.

    Hi Trefor! Just to reaffirm my understanding, when you defined vector spaces, it is not only defined for vectors (like what we’ve seen so far) but anything that obeys the rules at the beginning of the video (in this case, the example of polynomials)?

    • @ale-hl8pg
      @ale-hl8pg 3 года назад +3

      (if anyone still needs the answer to this) I'm pretty sure that vector is used to refer to any element of a given a vector space, for example, a polynomial of degree n could be considered a vector of a vector space of polynomials of degree n (the degree of the vector space could be greater though, a polynomial of degree 3 could be located in a vector space of polynomials of degree 5, similarly to how an arrow vector with a z coordinate of 0 is a vector of 3d space despite seeming like it fits in 2d space, it depends on the context you view it in). Since a vector is just a member of a vector space, that would mean that your assumption is correct as a vector space is any set that follows those rules

    Hi Professor, if my understanding is right, vectors in R^n (for example, lemme take R^2, in 2 dimensional space) which are a set of vectors which obey these rules like commutative, vector addition and scalar multiplication form a space called vector space??

    if any 2 arbitrary vectors in R^2 space obey these 10 vector addition and multiplication rules, is that mean these 2 arbitrary vectors forms a vector space or the span of these 2 vectors as vector space ?

    • @naiko1744
      @naiko1744 Год назад +1

      You can divide by any scalar by multiplying, if you wanna divide a vector by 3 then just multiply it by 1/3.
      On the other hand "multiplying" a vector by a matrix, while called multiplication, is actually a linear combination.
      Similarly, "multiplication" of matrices, while called multiplication, is actually a composition of matrices/transformations
      There are as many divisions as there are multiplications, it's just that they named a lot of different stuff "multiplication" ...
