Problem 3.18
a) Given two vectors spaces E and F, let (u;)ieI be any basis of E and let
(v;)ieI be any family of vectors in F. Prove that the unique linear map f: E ->F such that
f (u)
i for all iE I is surjective iff (v;)ieI spans F
b) Prove that for every vector space E, if f: E -> E is an idempotent linear
map, i.e., / o f = f, then we have a direct sum
E = Ker f Im f,
so that fis the projection onto its image Im f.
