Topic: Linear independent equivalent formulations


Martin Dvořák (Apr 05 2024 at 13:00):

How can we prove that these two formulations of linear independence are equivalent?

import Mathlib

example {ι F : Type} [Field F] {S : Set ι} {f : ι  F} :
    LinearIndependent F (f · : S  F) 
    LinearIndependent F (fun x => x : S.image f  F) := by
  sorry

They are not. Consider S := Set.univ, f := Function.const Bool 0

The case that's true is given by docs#linearIndependent_image

The awkward moment when you realize that Set.image actually produces a set.
