Suppose a linear transformation \(T:{\mathbb{R}^n} \to {\mathbb{R}^n}\) has the property that \(T\left( {\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} \right) = T\left( {\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \right)\) for some pair of distinct vectors u and v in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\). Can Tmap \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) onto \({\mathbb{R}^n}\)? Why or why not?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The linear transformation T cannot map \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) onto \({\mathbb{R}^n}\).

Step by step solution

01

State the standard matrix of T

Let \(T:{\mathbb{R}^n} \to {\mathbb{R}^m}\) be a linear transformation, and Abe the standard matrix for T. Then, according to theorem 12,

  1. Tmaps \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) onto \({\mathbb{R}^m}\) if and only if the columns of Aspan \({\mathbb{R}^m}\);
  2. T is one-to-one if and only if the columns of Aare linearly independent.

Consider Ais the standard matrix of T.

T is not one-to-one mapping according to the hypothesis. Therefore, according to theorem 12, the standard matrix A of Thas linearly dependent columns.

02

Determine whether T   maps \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) onto \({\mathbb{R}^n}\)

The columns of A do not span \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) because Ais a square matrix. Therefore, the linear transformation T cannot map \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) onto \({\mathbb{R}^n}\).

Most popular questions from this chapter

In the rest of this exercise set and in those to follow, you should assume that each matrix expression is defined. That is, the sizes of the matrices (and vectors) involved match appropriately.

Let \(A = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{4}}&{ - {\bf{1}}}\\{\bf{5}}&{ - {\bf{2}}}\end{aligned}} \right)\). Compute \({\bf{3}}{I_{\bf{2}}} - A\) and \(\left( {{\bf{3}}{I_{\bf{2}}}} \right)A\).

Solve the equation \(AB = BC\) for A, assuming that A, B, and C are square and Bis invertible.

Prove Theorem 2(d). (Hint: The \(\left( {i,j} \right)\)- entry in \(\left( {rA} \right)B\) is \(\left( {r{a_{i1}}} \right){b_{1j}} + ... + \left( {r{a_{in}}} \right){b_{nj}}\).)

Let Ube the \({\bf{3}} \times {\bf{2}}\) cost matrix described in Example 6 of Section 1.8. The first column of Ulists the costs per dollar of output for manufacturing product B, and the second column lists the costs per dollar of output for product C. (The costs are categorized as materials, labor, and overhead.) Let \({q_1}\) be a vector in \({\mathbb{R}^{\bf{2}}}\) that lists the output (measured in dollars) of products B and C manufactured during the first quarter of the year, and let \({q_{\bf{2}}}\), \({q_{\bf{3}}}\) and \({q_{\bf{4}}}\) be the analogous vectors that list the amounts of products B and C manufactured in the second, third, and fourth quarters, respectively. Give an economic description of the data in the matrix UQ, where \(Q = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{{{\bf{q}}_1}}&{{{\bf{q}}_2}}&{{{\bf{q}}_3}}&{{{\bf{q}}_4}}\end{aligned}} \right)\).

In exercise 11 and 12, mark each statement True or False.Justify each answer.

a. If \(A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{A_{\bf{1}}}}&{{A_{\bf{2}}}}\end{array}} \right]\) and \(B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{B_{\bf{1}}}}&{{B_{\bf{2}}}}\end{array}} \right]\), with \({A_{\bf{1}}}\) and \({A_{\bf{2}}}\) the same sizes as \({B_{\bf{1}}}\) and \({B_{\bf{2}}}\), respectively then \(A + B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{A_1} + {B_1}}&{{A_{\bf{2}}} + {B_{\bf{2}}}}\end{array}} \right]\).

b. If \(A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{A_{{\bf{11}}}}}&{{A_{{\bf{12}}}}}\\{{A_{{\bf{21}}}}}&{{A_{{\bf{22}}}}}\end{array}} \right]\) and \(B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{B_1}}\\{{B_{\bf{2}}}}\end{array}} \right]\), then the partitions of \(A\) and \(B\) are comfortable for block multiplication.
