Vector space/Product/Dimension/Exercise/Solution

From Wikiversity

The product space has dimension . To proof this let be a basis of and let be a basis of . We claim that the elements

form a basis of .

Let . Then there are representations

Therefore

which means that we have a generating system.

To show linear independence, suppose that

The same computation shows

and this means

Since each family forms a basis, we conclude for all and for all .
