    This is my video series about Linear Algebra. I hope that it will help everyone who wants to learn about it.
    Here I present some short calculation for the kernel of a matrix. I apologise for my pronunciation. The focus is on the mathematics and not my English skills :)
    #LinearAlgebra
    (This exercise fits to lectures for students in their first year of study: Mathematics for physicists, Mathematics for the natural science, Mathematics for engineers, Linear algebra and so on)

    is basis of the kernel different from the kernel? I did reduced row echelon and got x1 = -1/2 * x2+1/10 * x4, x3 = -3/5 * x4. So I thought it was going to be. So lets just call s1 and s2 the arbitrary vars x2 and x4. We would get:
    x1 = -1/2 * s1+1/10 * s2, x2 = s1, x3 = -3/5 * s2, x4 = s2
    s1
    + s2

    • @brightsideofmaths

      The kernel is the subspace and the basis is the minimal spanning set for the subspace. You can see the details in my Linear Algebra series: tbsom.de/s/la

      ⁠​⁠@@brightsideofmaths i checked my calculator once and for all and I did mess up the calculation 😂
      Btw if the vectors from this were dependent, then we’d choose just one of em for the kernel’s basis, I’d expect?
      Or would we recognize this and before writing the kernel, and redefine one of the free variables in terms of the other?

    Can you write 'x2' as a new free parameter or does it have to be in terms of alpha and beta?

    • @brightsideofmaths
      @brightsideofmaths  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Keep in mind: x2 is a leading variable and not a free one! Therefore, it has to be a fixed value or given in terms of alpha and beta.

    • @PunmasterSTP
      @PunmasterSTP 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think he mentioned this in the video and replies to other comments, x1 and x2 have pivots in their columns, while x3 and x4 do not. So it is best to think of x1 and x2 in terms of x3 and x4.

    The math does make sense here but what exactly would the difference between the kernel and the span then be? Could it be understood that the Span is then just referring to things like vectors and planes etc whilst kernels are more specific to matrixes?

      That depends what you want in the end. It is always better to have a basis of a subspace (here the kernel) since then you have all information in a compact form.
