Problem 3. Recall that a linear map f : V → W is called an isomorphism if it is invertible (i.e. has a linear inverse map). We proved in class that f is in fact invertible if and only if it is bijective. Use this fact from class together with the Rank-Nullity Theorem (of the previous problem) to show that if f : V → V is an endomorphism, then it is actually invertible if 1. it is merely injective...

Let f, g : Z → Z be defined as follows: ? f(x) = {x + 1 if x is odd; x - 1 if x is even}, g(x) = {x - 1 if x is odd; x + 1 if x is even}. Describe the functions fg and gf. Then compute the orders of f, g, fg, and gf.

1.a Implication: If an endomorphism f : V → V is not an isomorphism, then it must have a non-trivial kernel. Use this implication, together with the definition of determinant given in class, to show that if for an endomorphism f : V → V we have det(f) 6 /= 0, then in fact f is an isomorphism. 1.b. The Rank-Nullity Theorem applies to a linear map f : V → W (where V is finite dimensional) and claims that:...

Suppose V and W are two vector spaces. We can make the set V × W = {(α, β)|α ∈ V,β ∈ W} into a vector space as follows: (α1,β1)+(α2,β2)=(α1 + α2,β1 + β2) c(α1,β1)=(cα1, cβ1) You can assume the axioms of a vector space hold for V × W (A) If V and W are finite dimensional, what is the dimension of V × W? Prove your answer. Now suppose W1 and W2 are two subspaces of V ....
