Definition of linear dependence relation on a set of vectors

Created almost 9 years ago, updated about 8 hours ago

A linear dependence relation on $v_1,\ldots,v_k$ is an equation $c_1v_1+\cdots+c_kv_k=0$. It is nontrivial if at least one coefficient is nonzero. A list is dependent exactly when it admits a nontrivial relation. For $(1,0),(2,0)$, the relation $2v_1-v_2=0$ proves dependence.
