1. Vector Spaces
- A vector space V over a field F is a set with two operations: vector addition and
scalar multiplication.
- Must satisfy 8 axioms: associativity, commutativity, identity element, inverse
element, compatibility of scalar multiplication, etc.
3. Linear Independence
- A set of vectors is linearly independent if no vector in the set can be written
as a linear combination of the others.
5. Determinants
- The determinant of a square matrix gives information about invertibility.
- If det(A) ≠ 0, then A is invertible.
7. Applications
- Used in computer graphics, physics simulations, machine learning, etc.
