Exercise 3.B.29

Answers

Proof. Suppose v V . Since dim range φ = 1, it follows that φ(u) is a basis of range φ. There exists λ 𝔽 such that φ(v) = λφ(u), which implies φ(v λu) = 0. Hence v λu null φ and λu au : a 𝔽. But v = (v λu) + λu, therefore v null φ +au : a 𝔽, proving the inclusion in one direction. The inclusion in the opposite direction is clearly true. Thus V = null φ +au : a 𝔽. Since φ(u)0, it follows that φ(λu) = 0 if and only λ = 0. Therefore null φ au : a 𝔽 =0, proving that the sum is a direct one. □
