Topic: Subset of LI family is LI


Martin Dvořák (Mar 30 2024 at 16:18):

I would like to prove that a subset of linearly-independent family is linearly-independent.
It must already exist in Mathlib, right?
I probably failed to write the statement in an idiomatic way.

import Mathlib

example {ι F : Type} [Field F] {I J : Set ι} (hIJ : I  J) {f : ι  F}
    (hJ : LinearIndependent F (f · : J  F)
      ) : LinearIndependent F (f · : I  F) :=
  sorry

it looks very similar to docs#LinearIndependent.mono ?

Thanks!

I will take it from here:

import Mathlib

example {F : Type} [Field F] {D E : Set F} (hIJ : D  E)
    (hJ : LinearIndependent F (Subtype.val : E  F)
      ) : LinearIndependent F (Subtype.val : D  F) :=
  LinearIndependent.mono hIJ hJ
