Original question and givens

Use V=R^3 and the complete independent ordered column-vector basis basis_w=[[1, 3, 0]] of W. Coordinates are exact integers or [numerator, denominator] pairs with nonzero denominator. Quotient elements are cosets v+W, not unique representative vectors; v+W=u+W iff v−u lies in W. Membership and ranks use the whole subspace, not bounded searches over coefficients. v=[4, 2, 3], u=[3, 3, 4], scalar=3. Give (sum_representative, scalar_representative, addition_law, scalar_law, boundary).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source operation=quotient-coset-operations;original snapshot and mathematics retained

After

explicit ordered source output fields=[sum_representative, scalar_representative, addition_law, scalar_law, boundary]

Conditions: none

Keep the historical interface marker in the original snapshot while listing ordered source fields here,without JavaScript or external lookup.Field labels are not mathematical evidence,and No retains the operation's claim scope.

Rule: source_ordered_interface_explicit_without_javascript · Uses: G001

S002 · implies

Before

quotient ORIGINAL ordered W basis:COMPLETE exact original ordered matrix=[[1], [3], [0]];rows=3;columns=1

After

perform invertible ROW operations on EVERY entry;original COLUMN and right-side roles remain fixed

Conditions: none

Entrywise invertible row operations preserve the whole real solution set,without bounding coefficients to a finite integer box.Keep original basis-column order and right-side roles rather than semantic sorting.

S003 · calculation

Before

quotient ORIGINAL ordered W basis pivot0 column0 normalized entry0 := div(1, 1)

quotient ORIGINAL ordered W basis pivot0 column0 normalized entry0 = 1

Conditions: none

Substitute original roles and established intermediates exactly,retaining signs,denominators,indices and the relevant carrier.

Before

quotient ORIGINAL ordered W basis:row=0;column=0;nonzero exact pivot=1;old FULL row=[1]

After

normalized FULL row=[1]

Conditions: none

Divide every entry by the same nonzero pivot,not only the left block or one entry.

Before

quotient ORIGINAL ordered W basis eliminate row1 pivot0 entry0 product := mul(3, 1)

Conditions: none

Substitute original roles and established intermediates exactly,retaining signs,denominators,indices and the relevant carrier.

Conditions: none

Substitute original roles and established intermediates exactly,retaining signs,denominators,indices and the relevant carrier.

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S005

S007 · implies

Before

quotient ORIGINAL ordered W basis:target row=1;old row=[3];subtract factor=3 times FULL pivot row=[1]

After

new exact FULL row=[0]

Conditions: none

Subtract the same multiple in every entry.The inverse adds it back,preserving every equation rather than replacing the full system with sampled solutions.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: quotient_invertible_complete_row_elimination · Uses: G001, S006

S008 · implies

Before

quotient ORIGINAL ordered W basis:complete exact reduced matrix=[[1], [0], [0]];ORIGINAL pivot-column indices=[0]

After

rank=1;pivot coordinates independent;ALL original column relations and full real system solution set preserved

Conditions: none

Pivot identity coordinates prove independence and express other columns by their pivot-row coordinates,so pivot count gives rank.Invertible operations carry these relations back to the original matrix.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: quotient_full_rank_and_solution_set_certificate · Uses: G001, S007

S009 · implies

Before

ACTUAL ambient real space R^3;complete ORIGINAL independent basis columns of W=[[1, 3, 0]]

After

W is the FULL real span of these columns;dim W=1;zero coset is the WHOLE subspace W,not the vector0 alone

Conditions: none

Exact rank verifies independence of the declared complete basis,whose count is dim W.The list is not the set of all W elements.An empty basis gives W={0};the zero coset is still the set W,not a representative vector.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: quotient_declared_subspace_full_real_span_zero_coset · Uses: G001, S008

S010 · implies

Before

ACTUAL subspace W full real span in R^3;original basis=[[1, 3, 0]]

After

for ANY representatives v'=v+w,u'=u+z with w,z in W,and ANY real lambda,sum difference=w+z in W and scalar difference=lambda*w in W;thus quotient addition/scaling independent of representatives

Conditions: none

Subspace closure under addition,negation and every real scalar keeps all representative-change differences in W.This proves well-definedness for arbitrary changes,not just supplied shifts.Quotient objects are cosets:representatives are generally nonunique,with uniqueness possible when W={0},without equating the coset object type with vectors.
