Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\(F\): \(\in \{\text{ the fields }\}\)
\(V\): \(\in \{\text{ the } F \text{ vectors spaces }\}\)
\(B\): \(\in \{\text{ the bases for } V\} = \{b_s \vert 1 \le s \le dim V\}\)
\(B'\): \(\in \{\text{ the bases for } V\} = \{b'_s = b_j M_s^j \vert 1 \le s \le dim V\}\)
//

Statements:
\(\forall v = v^j b_j = v'^j b'_j \in V\)
(
\(v'^j = {M^{-1}}^j_l v^l\)
)
//


2: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: for \(b'_j v'^j = b_j v^j\), expand \(b'_j\) with \(b_l\) s, and compare the coefficients of \(b_l\) s on the both hand sides.

Step 1:

From \(b'_j v'^j = b_j v^j\), \(b'_j v'^j = b'_l v'^l = b_j M_l^j v'^l = b_j v^j\).

So, \(M_l^j v'^l = v^j\).

So, \(v'^j = {M^{-1}}^j_l v^l\).
