1. Determine which of the following are linear transformations T : V → W, where the
vector spaces V,W are given: (a)V = W = R3 ; T (x, y, z) = (2x + y, z, |x|) (b)V = W = M2 (R), the space of all 2 × 2 real matrices; (i) T (A) = At , (ii) T (A) = I + A, (iii) T (A) = A2 , (iv) T (A) = BAB −1 , where B is some fixed 2 × 2 matrix. 2. Let T : R3 → R3 be a linear transformation such that T (1, 0, 0) = (1, 0, 0), T (1, 1, 0) = (1, 1, 1) and T (1, 1, 1) = (1, 1, 0). Find (a) T (x, y, z), (b) ker(T ), (c) R(T ). Also show that T 3 = T. 3. Find all linear transformations from Rn → R. 4. Let C be an m × n matrix and let T : Rn → Rm be the linear transformation defined by C. Show that the matrix of T with respect to the standard bases of Rn and Rm is C. 5. Determine N (T ) and R(T ) for each of the following linear transformations: a) T : P2 → P3 , T (f )(x) = xf (x) b) T : P4 → P3 , T (f )(x) = f ′ (x). 6. If T : Rn → Rn is given by T (x1 , x2 , ..., xn ) = (x2 + x3 , x3 , ..., xn , 0) then write down the matrix of T w.r.t. the standard basis of Rn . 7. Does there exist a linear transformation T : R2 → R4 such that Range(T ) = {(x1 , x2 , x3 , x4 ) : x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 = 0}? 8. Let V be a vector space of dimension n and let A = {v1 , ..., vn } be an ordered basis of V . Suppose w1 , ..., wn ∈ V and let (a1j , ..., anj )t denote the coordinates of wj with respect to A. Put C = [aij ]. Then show that w1 , ..., wn is a basis of V if and only if C is invertible. 9. Let T be a linear transformation from an n dimensional vector space V to an m dimensional vector space W and let C be the matrix of T with respect to a basis A of V and B of W . Show that (a) rank(T ) = rank(C); (b) T is one-one if and only if rank(C) = n; (c) T is onto if and only if rank(C) = m; 10. Consider the identity map I : R3 → R3 defined by I(x) = x. Let the ordered basis for the domain space is B = (1, 1, 1), (1, 0, 1), (1, 1, 0) and for the co-domain space is the standard basis E. Then find change of basis matrices [I]E,B and [I]B,E . How the two change of basis matrices relate to each other?
