basis


A (Hamel) basis of a vector spaceMathworldPlanetmath is a linearly independentMathworldPlanetmath spanning set.

It can be proved that any two bases of the same vector space must have the same cardinality. This introduces the notion of dimensionPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath of a vector space, which is precisely the cardinality of the basis, and is denoted by dim(V), where V is the vector space.

The fact that every vector space has a Hamel basisMathworldPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/EveryVectorSpaceHasABasis) is an important consequence of the axiom of choiceMathworldPlanetmath (in fact, that propositionPlanetmathPlanetmath is equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath to the axiom of choice.)

Examples.

  • β={ei}, 1in, is a basis for n (the n-dimensional vector space over the reals). For n=4,

    β={(1000),(0100),(0010),(0001)}
  • β={1,x,x2} is a basis for the vector space of polynomials with degree at most 2, over a division ring.

  • The set

    β={[1000],[0100],[0001],[0010]}

    is a basis for the vector space of 2×2 matrices over a division ring, and assuming that the characteristic of the ring is not 2, then so is

    β={[2000],[0100],[0004],[00120]}.
  • The empty setMathworldPlanetmath is a basis for the trivial vector space which consists of the unique element 0.

Remark. More generally, for any (left) right module M over a ring R, one may define a (left) right basis for M as a subset B of M such that B spans M and is linearly independent. However, unlike bases for a vector space, bases for a module may not have the same cardinality.
