"What is an affine set?
A set is called “affine” iff for any two points in the set, the line through them is contained in the set. In other words, for any two points in the set, their affine combinations are in the set itself. Theorem 1. A set is affine iff any affine combination of points in the set is in the set itself."

"In linear algebra, the column space (also called the range or image) of a matrix A is the span (set of all possible linear combinations) of its column vectors. The column space of a matrix is the image or range of the corresponding matrix transformation.

Infimum and supremum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to navigationJump to search
A set T of real numbers (hollow and filled circles), a subset S of T (filled circles), and the infimum of S. Note that for finite, totally ordered sets the infimum and the minimum are equal.


A set A of real numbers (blue circles), a set of upper bounds of A (red diamond and circles), and the smallest such upper bound, that is, the supremum of A (red diamond).

In mathematics, the infimum (abbreviated inf; plural infima) of a subset S of a partially ordered set T is the greatest element in T that is less than or equal to all elements of S, if such an element exists.[1] Consequently, the term greatest lower bound (abbreviated as GLB) is also commonly used.[1]

The supremum (abbreviated sup; plural suprema) of a subset S of a partially ordered set T is the least element in T that is greater than or equal to all elements of S, if such an element exists.[1] Consequently, the supremum is also referred to as the least upper bound (or LUB).[1]
