QUESTION:

Let T: V Z be a linear transformation of a vector space V onto a vector space Z. Define the mapping T: V/N(T) - Z by T(v + N(T)) = T(v) for any coset v + N(T) in V/N(T). (a) Prove that T is well-defined; that is, prove that if v + N(T) = v' + N(T), then T(v) = T(v'). (b) Prove that T is linear. (c) Prove that T is an isomorphism. (d) Prove that the diagram shown in Figure 2.3 commutes; that is, prove that T = Tr/.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 5

Let be a linear transformation from the vector space V onto the vector space Z. The mapping  is defined by

         

To prove that  is well defined.

Since T is a linear transformation, T is well defined. Therefore, for ,
