Algebra Linear transformation PhD. Nguyen Tuan Long
Faculty of Economic Mathematics Functions Definition
A function f : X → Y assigns to each element x of X (called domain) exactly one
element y of Y (called codomain). A function is sometime called map or mapping. function NOT function 2/20 Functions Examples
• A univariate function: f : R → R with f(x) = x2
• A bivariate function: f : R2 → R with f(x1, x2) = 2x1 + 3x2
• A multivariate function: f : Rn → R with f(x1, . . . , xn) = a1x1 + · · · + anxn
• A polynomial function: f : R2 → R with f(x1, x2) = 2x2 + 3x2 − x 1 2
1x2 + 4x1 + 5x2 Definition
• One-to-one (or injective) function: f : X → Y: if x, x′ ∈ X, x ̸= x′ then f(x) ̸= f(x′)
• Onto function (or surjective) function: f : X → Y: for every y ∈ Y there exists
x ∈ X such that f(x) = y
• Bijective function f : X → Y is the function that is both injective and surjective.3/20 Transformation Definition
A transformation is a function T from Rn to Rm.
• Rn is called the domain of T
• Rm is called the codomain of T
• For x ∈ Rn, the vector T(x) is called the image of x under T
• The set of images {T(x) | x ∈ Rn} is called the range of T 4/20 Matrix Transformation Definition
Let A = [aij] ∈ Rm×n be a matrix. The matrix transformation associated to A is the
transformation T from Rn to Rm, defined by T(x) = Ax.
The range of T is the column space of A.

1 . + x2 . + · · · + xn .
am1x1 + · · · + amnxn am1 am2 amn
meaning the outputs of T(x) = Ax are exactly the linear combinations of the columns of A. 5/20

One-to-one transformation Definition
A transformation T from Rn to Rm is one-to-one if one of the following holds:
• for every b ∈ Rm, there is at most one vector x ∈ Rn such that T(x) = b
• for every x, y ∈ Rn with x ̸= y, then T(x) ̸= T(y).
• for every x, y ∈ Rn, if T(x) ̸= T(y) then x ̸= y. Examples
