Suppose $V$ and $W$ are both finite dimensional. Prove that there exits an injective linear map from $V$ to $W$ if and only if $dim V leq dim W$.



Proof: Suppose $V$ and $W$ are both finite dimensional. Then we have $dim V = dim(text{null} (T)) + dim (text{range} (T))$. Then we have $dim V= dim text{range} (T)leq dim W$.
So there exists an injective map, so that $dim V leq dim W$.



Conversely, suppose $dim Vleq dim W$. Then let $dim V = n, dim W = m$. Define a basis for $V$ by $v_1,ldots,v_n $ for $V$ and $w_1,ldots,w_m$ for $W$.
Can someone please help me? I dont really know how to show there is an injective linear map .

    You can just show that there exists one, for example the one which maps $v_i$ to $w_i$.

  • Note: For "only if" you could show that the image of a basis of $V$ is linearly independent in $W$ using the injective property. (You haven't, incidentally, said what $T$ is).
