Question: Let U, V be two vector spaces over the same field F. Let W be a subspace of U. We define W' L(U, V )
Let U, V be two vector spaces over the same field F. Let W be a subspace of U. We define W' L(U, V ) by W' = {T L(U, V ) | w W, T(w) = 0}.
a. Show that W' is a subspace of L(U, V ).
b. If both U and V are finite dimensions express dim(W') in terms of dim(U), dim (V), and dim (W). Give proof of your formula. Hint: Consider a matrix representation of T W'.
