1. Let W be the subspace of R5 spanned by the following vectors: u1 =


(1, 2, 1, 3, 2); u2 = (1, 3, 3, 5, 3); u3 = (3, 8, 7, 13, 8) u4 =(1, 4, 6,
9, 7), u5 = (5, 13, 13, 25, 19).
Find the basis and its dimension.
2. Consider the vector space P2 (t) of polynomials of degree 2. The poly-
nomials p1 (t) = t + 1; p2 (t) = t - 1; p3 (t) = (t - 1)2 , p4 (t) = t2 - t
+ 3. show that these polynomial form basis set S of P2 (t). Also find
the coordinate vector [v] of v = 2t2 - 5t + 9 relative to basis S.

1
If the inner product for the polynomial is defined as < pq >= ∫0 p(t)q(t) dt,
use Gram-Schmidt method to find the orthonormal set of vectors.
3. Find if the functions f(t) = sin t, g(t) = et and h(t) = t2 are linearly
dependent or not?
4. Let L be the linear transformation on R2 that reflects each point P
across the line y = kx, where k > 0 (see Figure).

(a) Show that v1 = (k, 1) and v2 = (1, -k) are eigenvectors of L.


(b) Show that L is diagonalizable, and find a diagonal representation
D.
5. Consider field as set (i) R (ii) C. Check whether the following sets of
elements form a Linear vector spaces. If they do, find the dimension-
ality of the vector space:
(a) The set of all polynomials (of all orders) of a complex variable z.
e.g.:
f (z) = an z n + an−1 z n−1 + ...... + a1 z + a0
g(z) = bn z n + bn−1 z n−1 + ...... + b1 z + b0
Addition operations defined as:
(f + g)(x) = (an + bn )z n + (an−1 + bn−1 )z n−1 + ........(a1 + b1 )z + (a0 + b0 )

b) The set of all n × n hermitian matrices (with multiplication by real


scalars) under matrix addition and matrix multiplication.
c) The set of all n× n unitary matrices under matrix addition and
matrix multiplication.
6. Let V ≡ {x∥x ∈ R, x > 0}. If the rules of vector addition and scalar
multiplication are redefined as follows (for x, y ∈ R).
x ⊕ y = xy
α ⊗ x = xα
with α ∈ R. then find if V(R) a linear vector space under these rede-
fined operations?
