Linear Transformation Problems for B.Tech
The fundamental theorem of homomorphism states that for a linear transformation T: V -> W, V/Ker(T) is isomorphic to Range(T). Proof involves showing a well-defined, bijective map from V/Ker(T) to Range(T), leveraging properties of linear transformations and quotient spaces. If v+Ker(T) maps to T(v), it remains in the same equivalence class under T, thus forming the needed isomorphism .
T(x,y,z) = (x+y, y-z) is linear as it satisfies T(u+v) = T(u) + T(v) and T(cv) = cT(v) for vectors u, v and scalar c. The Range(T) is R^2 as both coordinates (x+y, y-z) can independently span R ranges. Ker(T) is formed by solutions to x+y=0, y-z=0, i.e., Ker(T) = span{(-1,1,1)}, the null space .
An example of T: R^2 -> R^2 where Range(T) = Ker(T) is T(x, y) = (x-y, 0). Here, Range(T) = Ker(T) = span{(1,0)}, as both the image and kernel lie along the x-axis line {rax + 0ay | r ∈ R}; thus, injective and surjective properties coincide .
For a finite-dimensional vector space V, a linear transformation T: V -> V is one-to-one (injective) if and only if it is onto (surjective). This holds because the dimensions of Range(T) and Ker(T) must add up to the dimension of V. If T is one-to-one, Ker(T) = {0} and dim(Range(T)) = dim(V), forcing it to be onto. Conversely, if T is onto, Range(T) = V, leading Ker(T) = {0}, proving injectivity .
Hom(V, W) is the space of linear maps from V to W. Choosing bases for V and W, a linear transformation is fully determined by its m by n matrix representation, with each entry independently chosen from the field F. Thus, dimension(Hom(V, W)) = n*m, as each element in Hom(V, W) corresponds to a unique combination of matrix entries .
To find the range, rank, kernel, and nullity: Express T as a matrix A, perform row reduction for rank which is the row count with pivots. Solve homogeneous Ax=0 for Ker(T) basis vectors. Nullity is non-pivot columns count. T is given by A=(1,1,0;1,0,-1;0,2,1;3,4,0). Row reduction gives rank=3 (A full row rank set), Ker(T)={{(x,y,z)| x = z, y=-z}}, Nullity=0, Range(T)=span{basis columns from full rank .
To find the transformation matrix [T]_B with given bases (α1, α2, α3), calculate T(α1), T(α2), and T(α3): T(α1)=(0,4,5), T(α2)=(-1,3,4), T(α3)=(-1,3,1). Columns of [T]_B originate from reconciling outputs of these as linear combos of basis vectors internal to B, hence transformation matrix formed .
T is invertible if and only if its matrix representation is invertible. Construct matrix A=(1,2,-1;2,0,1;1,-1,0). Check its determinant; det(A) = 1*0*0 - 1*(-1) - 1 = 2 ≠ 0 confirms invertibility. Calculation of A^(-1) involves adjoint matrix and determinant, yielding A^(-1)=... (reference source for detailed inv. steps); thus T^(-1)(y1,y2,y3) mappings established .
The mapping T is not linear because it does not satisfy the condition T(0,0) = (0,0). Linearity requires T(x1 + x2) = T(x1) + T(x2) and scalar multiplication. However, T(x1, x2) = (x1, x1 + x2 + 1) introduces a constant term '+1', which violates these conditions as T(0,0) = (0,1) ≠ (0,0).
A linear transformation T: R^2 -> R^3 cannot have both T(0,1) = (1,1,1) and T(1,0) = (1,1,1). For T to be linear, T(a,b) = aT(1,0) + bT(0,1). However, the given conditions imply T(0,1) ≠ T(0,0) = (0,0,0), violating linearity, thus no such transformation exists.
