Affine Maps
-
Definition.
If V is a vector space,
a translation t : V --> V is a map that is given by
t(x) = x + a for some a in V and all x in V.
-
Definition.
If V is a vector space,
an affine map f : V --> V is a map that may be written
as the composition t \circ l where l : V --> V is a linear
map and t : V --> V is a translation.
Note that saying
f = l \circ t
i.e., f(x) = l(x + a) for some a in V,
rather than
f = t \circ l,
i.e., f(x) = l(x) + a for some a in V,
would change the definition of affine map.
Exercises:
Find an affine map f of R^{2} for which
f(0, 0) = (1, -1), f(1,0) = (4, -1), and f(0, 1) = (4, 3).
When f is an affine map, let lambda(f) denote
its linear component. Show that lambda(g \circ h) = lambda(g) \circ
lambda(h).
Show that an affine map f is invertible if and only if
its linear component lambda(f) is invertible.
(Corrected) Show that if f is an invertible affine map of V
and t a translation of V, then f \circ t \circ f^{-1} is a
translation.
