A linear transformation is determined by its action on a basis.

Created almost 9 years ago, updated about 8 hours ago

If two linear maps agree on a basis, they agree everywhere: expand $v=\sum_jc_jb_j$ and apply linearity to both. Conversely, arbitrary assigned images of basis vectors extend to one linear map. No compatibility constraints are needed because a basis has no nontrivial relations.
