Invariant Subspace

Definition (Invariant subspace)

Let T∈L(V)T\in\mathscr{L}(V). A subspace U⊂VU\subset V is called invariant under TT if, for every u∈Uu\in U, T(u)∈UT(u)\in U

Notation

IF T∈L(V,W)T\in\mathscr{L}(V,W) and U⊂VU\subset V is a subspace, then we can restrict TT to get a linear map T∣U∈L(U,W)T|_U\in\mathscr{L}(U,W) defined by T∣U(u)=T(u)T|_U(u)=T(u) for every u∈U⊂Vu\in U\subset V.

Definition (A-invariant)

Let S⊆RnS\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{n} be an rr-dimensional Subspace. Let A∈Mn(R)A\in\mathcal{M}_{n}(\mathbb{R}), we say SS is AA-invariant if {Aη∣η∈S}=:AS⊆S\{ A\eta \mid \eta \in S \}=:AS\subseteq S
