2. Introduction 
      The goal of this chapter is study of linear mappings or linear 
transformations. Linear mapping is a function whose domain and range, sets 
are subsets of vector spaces or linear mapping is function from a vector 
space into vector space. The linear transformation denoted by  
                                         
T : U W ?
 
     The above symbol denote that T is a function whose domain is U and 
whose range set is W. For each element a in U, the element T(a) in W is 
called the image of a under T, and generally we say that T maps a into T(a).  
     If B is any subset of U, the set of all images T(a) for a in B is called the 
image of  B under T and is  denoted by T(B). The image of the domain U, 
T(U),  is the range T 
3. Linear Transformations 
Definition:  Let U and V be vector spaces over the field F. A linear mapping 
from U into V is a function T from U into V such that   
 T(c d ) cT( ) dT( ) ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 
for all and ?? in U and all scalar c and d in F. 
Example 1: Let K be a field and let U be the space of polynomial functions g 
from K into K, given by 
 
k
0 1 k
g(x) a a x .... a x ? ? ? ? 
Let

2. Introduction 
      The goal of this chapter is study of linear mappings or linear 
transformations. Linear mapping is a function whose domain and range, sets 
are subsets of vector spaces or linear mapping is function from a vector 
space into vector space. The linear transformation denoted by  
                                         
T : U W ?
 
     The above symbol denote that T is a function whose domain is U and 
whose range set is W. For each element a in U, the element T(a) in W is 
called the image of a under T, and generally we say that T maps a into T(a).  
     If B is any subset of U, the set of all images T(a) for a in B is called the 
image of  B under T and is  denoted by T(B). The image of the domain U, 
T(U),  is the range T 
3. Linear Transformations 
Definition:  Let U and V be vector spaces over the field F. A linear mapping 
from U into V is a function T from U into V such that   
 T(c d ) cT( ) dT( ) ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 
for all and ?? in U and all scalar c and d in F. 
Example 1: Let K be a field and let U be the space of polynomial functions g 
from K into K, given by 
 
k
0 1 k
g(x) a a x .... a x ? ? ? ? 
Let

Then D is a linear transformation from U into U the differentiation 
transformation. 
Theorem 1: Let V be a finite-dimensional vector space over the field K and 
let 
1n
{ ..., } ?? be an ordered basis for V. Let U be a vector space over the 
same field K and let 
1n
,..., ?? be any vectors in U. Then there is precisely one 
linear transformation T from V into U such that 
 
ii
T , i 1,...,n. ? ? ? ? 
Proof:  To prove there is some linear transformation T with 
ii
T ? ? ? . For 
given ? in V, there is a unique n-tuple 
1n
(x ,...,x ) such that 
 ? 
1 1 n n
x .... x ? ? ? ? ? 
For this vector ? we define  
 
1 1 n n
T x ... x ? ? ? ? ? ? 
Then T is a well-defined rule for associating with each vector ? in V a vector 
T ? in U. From the definition it is clear that 
ii
T ? ? ? for each i. To see that T is 
linear, let 
 ?
1 1 n n
y .... y ? ? ? ? ? 
be in V and let c be any scalar. Now 
 c ? ? ?
1 1 1 n n n
(cx y ) ... (cx y ) ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 
and so by definition 
 T(c ) ? ? ?
1 1 1 n n n
(cx y ) ... (cx y ) ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 
On the other hand, 
 c(T ) T ? ? ?

FAQs on Lecture 6 - Linear Transformations - Linear Algebra - Engineering Mathematics

1. What is a linear transformation?
Ans. A linear transformation is a function that maps vectors from one vector space to another in a way that preserves scalar multiplication and vector addition. It can be represented by a matrix and is often used to describe transformations such as rotations, scaling, and shearing.
2. How do you determine if a transformation is linear?
Ans. To determine if a transformation is linear, it must satisfy two properties: 1) Preserves scalar multiplication: If T is a linear transformation, then T(kx) = kT(x) for any scalar k and vector x. 2) Preserves vector addition: If T is a linear transformation, then T(x + y) = T(x) + T(y) for any vectors x and y.
3. What is the relationship between linear transformations and matrices?
Ans. Linear transformations can be represented by matrices. Each column of the matrix represents the image of a basis vector under the transformation. The matrix multiplication of a vector with the transformation matrix produces the image of that vector under the transformation.
4. Can a linear transformation change the dimension of a vector space?
Ans. No, a linear transformation cannot change the dimension of a vector space. The dimensionality of the input vector space and the output vector space must remain the same for a transformation to be considered linear.
5. How do you find the standard matrix of a linear transformation?
Ans. To find the standard matrix of a linear transformation, we need to determine the images of the basis vectors. Let's say we have a linear transformation T: R^n -> R^m. We take the images of the standard basis vectors e1, e2, ..., en under T and arrange them as columns of a matrix. This resulting matrix is the standard matrix of the linear transformation.
