Vectors

Vector spaces

More formally a vector is an element of a vector space.

A vector space V is a set that contains all linear combinations of itselements :

If vectors u and v ∈ V, then u + v ∈ V.If vector u ∈ V, then α u ∈ V for any scalar α.There exists 0 ∈ V such that u + 0 = u for any u ∈ V.

A subspace is a subset of a vector space that is also a vector space.

The vectors in an orthonormal basis have unit Euclidean norm andare orthogonal to each other.

To express a vector x in an orthonormal basis, we can just take innerproducts.

Example : x = α1b1 + α2b2.

We compute 〈x,b1〉 :

〈x,b1〉 = 〈α1b1 + α2b2,b1〉= α1 〈b1,b1〉+ α2 〈b2,b1〉 By linearity.

= α1 + 0 By orthonormality.
