Linear mapping/Field/Definition/Explanations/Remark

From Wikiversity

Here, the first property is called additivity and the second property is called compatibility with scaling. When we want to stress the base field, then we say -linearity. The identity , the null mapping and the inclusion of a linear subspace are the simplest examples for linear mappings. For a linear mapping, the compatibility with arbitrary linear combination holds, that is,

see exercise.
