Today's class dealt with the properties of vector spaces.

Definition

Let F is a field, a vector space V over F is a set V of vectors with special element O ( of V) and tow operations: (+): VxV->V, (.): FxV->V

VxV={(v,w): v,w $\in \!\,$ V}

FxV={(c,v): c $\in \!\,$ F, v $\in \!\,$ V}

Then, (+): VxV->V is (v,w)= v+w; (.): FxV->V is (c,v)=cv

Such that

VS1 $\forall \!\,$ x, y $\in \!\,$ V: x+y = y+x

VS2 $\forall \!\,$ x, y, z $\in \!\,$ V: x+(y+z) = (x+y)+z

VS3 $\forall \!\,$ x $\in \!\,$ V: 0 ( of V) +x = x
