How a single matrix defines four fundamental subspaces
In short: Professor Gilbert Strang explains how matrix multiplication transforms space, revealing the essential interaction between the four fundamental subspaces that form the core of linear algebra.
This lecture explores the geometric relationships within a matrix, specifically how multiplication by a matrix transforms the row space into the column space. This examines how four unique subspaces interact: the column space, the row space (having identical dimension), the nullspace, and the space of vectors orthogonal to every column.
