Short Answer

Find the transformation is linear and determine whether the transformation is an isomorphism.

The solution is that T is a liner transformation and not an isomorphism.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step1: Definition of Linear Transformation

Consider two linear spaces V and W. A function T is said to be linear transformation if the following holds.

T(f+g)=T(f)+T(g) T(kf)=kT(f)

For all elements f,g of V and k is scalar.

A linear transformation T:VW is said to be an isomorphism if and only if ker(T)={0} and im(T)=W or dim(V)=dim(W).

Step2: Explanation of the solution

The given transformation as follows.

Tx0,x1,x2,x3,...=x0,x2,x4,..., from V to V.

By using the definition of linear transformation as follows.

TA+B=TA+TB TkA=kT(A)

Now, to check the first condition as follows.

Consider two infinite sequences V from as follows.

x=x0.x1,... and y=y0.y1,... be an infinite sequences from V.

Now, simplify as follows.

T(x+y)=Tx0+y0,x1+y1+... =x0+y0,x2+y2+... =x0+x2,...+y0+y2,...T(x+y)=Tx+Ty

Simplify for the second condition as follows.

T(kx)=Tkx0,kx1,kx2+... =kx0,kx2,kx4+... =kx0,x2,x4T(kx)=kTx

Thus, T is a linear transformation.

Step3: Properties of isomorphism

A linear transformation T:VW is isomorphism if and only if ker(t)={0} and lm(t)=W

Now, it easy to show that T0,1,0,1,...=0,0,0,... and T0,2,0,2,...=0,0,0,....

That is the inverse of role="math" localid="1659416754005" 0,0,0, does not have unique vector to map to.

This means that T is not an isomorphism.

Thus, T is a linear transformation and not an isomorphism.
