Expert-verifiedQuestions: Let \({F_{\bf{1}}}\) and \({F_{\bf{2}}}\) be 4-dimensional flats in \({\mathbb{R}^{\bf{6}}}\), and suppose that \({F_{\bf{1}}} \cap {F_{\bf{2}}} \ne \phi \). What are the possible dimension of \({F_{\bf{1}}} \cap {F_{\bf{2}}}\)?
The dimension D of the solution set is, \(2 \le D \le 4\).
\({F_1}\) and \({F_2}\) have complete overlap, then \({F_1}\), \({F_2}\) have four dimensions.
As there is six-dimensional space, at the minimum, they have \(\left( {6 - 4 = 2} \right)\) dimensions. So, the range of dimensions is shown below:
\(2 \le D \le 4\)
Thus, the dimension of the solution set is from 2 to 4.
