Theorem 25

Let V be a vector space with dimension n.

(a) Any finite generating set for V contains atleast n vectors, and a generating set for V that contains exactly n vectors is a basis for V.

 (b) Any linearly independent subset of V that contains exactly n vectors is a basis for V.

(c) Every linearly independent subset of V can be extended to a basis for V.

Proof:

Let B be a basis for V.

(a) Let G be a finite generating set for V. Then the subset H of G is a basis for V. Therefore, H contains exactly n vectors. Since a subset of G contains n vectors, G must contain atleast n vectors. If G contain exactly n vectors, then H= G so that G is a basis for V.

(b) Let L be a linearly independent subset of V containing exactly n vectors. By replacement theorem, there is a subset H of B containing n−n=0 vectors such that L H generates V. Thus H= ϕ and L generates V. Since L is also linearly independent, L is a basis for V.

(c) If L is a linearly independent subset of V containing m vectors, then there is a subset H of B containing exactly n−m vectors such that L H generates V. Now L H contains atmost n vectors, L H contains exactly n vectors and that L H is a basis for V.
