Review
Span

Let S ={ v1,v2,…,vk }
where vi belong to V

Span S is the set of all linear combinations


a1v1 + a2v2+…..+akvk

Dr. Ammar Hasan SEECS, NUST


Review
Properties of Span

The set S is not necessarily a subspace

Span S is always a subspace of V

Dr. Ammar Hasan SEECS, NUST


Review
Spanning set

If span S = V (the whole vector space)

we say that S spans V


or
S is the spanning set of V

Dr. Ammar Hasan SEECS, NUST


Linear dependence

Consider three vectors v1, v2, v3

If v3 = a1v1 + a2v2 (for some a 1, a2 )

then v1 depends on the other two vectors

Definition: Linear Independence

Dr. Ammar Hasan SEECS, NUST


Procedure to determine if
vectors v1,v2,….,vk
are linearly independent or not
• Equation (1) leads to a homogenous system

• It the obtained homogenous system has only


the trivial solution, then the given vectors are
linearly independent.
