Summary Let A be an n x n matrix. A is invertible if and only if The columns of A span Rn For every b in Rn, the system Ax=b is consistent The rank of A is n The columns of A are linear independent The only solution to Ax=0 is the zero vector The nullity of A is zero The reduced row echelon form of A is In A is a product of elementary matrices There exists an n x n matrix B such that BA = In There exists an n x n matrix C such that AC = In
Review - Terminology What actually come out of function f Range ( ) Given a function f ?1 ? ?1 ?2 ? ?2 = ? ?3 ?3 Co-domain ( ) Domain ( ) What can go into function f What may possible come out of function f
Review - Terminology one-to-one ( ) Onto ( ) ?1 ?1 ? ?1 ? ?1 ?2 ?2 ? ?2 = ? ?3 ? ?2 ?3 ? ?3 ?3 Co-domain = range
Review: One-to-one 2 x 3 A function f is one-to-one If co-domain is smaller than the domain, f cannot be one-to-one. ?1 ? ?1 If a matrix A is , it cannot be one-to-one. ?2 ? ?2 ? ?3 ?3 The reverse is not true. ? If a matrix A is one-to- one, its columns are independent. ? ? = ? has one solution ? ? = ? has at most one solution
Review: Onto 3 x 2 A function f is onto If co-domain is larger than the domain, f cannot be onto. ?1 ? ?1 If a matrix A is , it cannot be onto. ?2 ? ?2 = ? ?3 ?3 The reverse is not true. If a matrix A is onto, rank A = no. of rows. Co-domain = range ? ? = ? always have solution
Invertible A is called invertible if there is a matrix B such that ?? = ? and ?? = ? (? = ? 1) ? ? ? 1? ?? ? ? ? 1 ? 1 A must be onto A must be one-to-one ( ? 1 input )
An invertible matrix A is always square. One-to-one and onto A function f is one-to-one and onto The domain and co- domain must have the same size . The corresponding matrix A is square. ?1 ? ?1 ?2 ? ?2 ? ?3 ?3 Onto One-to-one Square
