The xy-plane, a two-dimensional vector space, can be thought of as the direct sum of two one-dimensional vector spaces, namely the x and y axes. In this direct sum, the x and y axes intersect only at the origin (the zero vector).
The group operation in the external direct sum is pointwise multiplication, as in the usual direct product. This subset does indeed form a group, and for a finite set of groups {H i} the external direct sum is equal to the direct product. If G = ΣH i, then G is isomorphic to Σ E {H i}. Thus, in a sense, the direct sum is an "internal ...
In particular, the direct sum of square matrices is a block diagonal matrix. The adjacency matrix of the union of disjoint graphs (or multigraphs) is the direct sum of their adjacency matrices. Any element in the direct sum of two vector spaces of matrices can be represented as a direct sum of two matrices. In general, the direct sum of n ...
In the Cartesian plane, these pairs lie on a hyperbola, and when the double sum is fully expanded, there is a bijection between the terms of the sum and the lattice points in the first quadrant on the hyperbolas of the form xy = k, where k runs over the integers 1 ≤ k ≤ n: for each such point (x,y), the sum contains a term g(x)h(y), and ...
(x 1, y 1) + (x 2, y 2) = (x 1 + x 2, y 1 + y 2). Let R + be the group of positive real numbers under multiplication. Then the direct product R + × R + is the group of all vectors in the first quadrant under the operation of component-wise multiplication (x 1, y 1) × (x 2, y 2) = (x 1 × x 2, y 1 × y 2). Let G and H be cyclic groups with two ...
The Jordan identity implies that if x and y are elements of A, then the endomorphism sending z to x(yz)−y(xz) is a derivation. Thus the direct sum of A and der(A) can be made into a Lie algebra, called the structure algebra of A, str(A). A simple example is provided by the Hermitian Jordan algebras H(A,σ).
If every x in M can be written in exactly one way as a sum of finitely many elements of the M i, then we say that M is the internal direct sum of the submodules M i (Halmos 1974, §18). In this case, M is naturally isomorphic to the (external) direct sum of the M i as defined above ( Adamson 1972 , p.61).
if is a closed linear subspace of then =, the (inner) direct sum. The orthogonal complement generalizes to the annihilator, and gives a Galois connection on subsets of the inner product space, with associated closure operator the topological closure of the span.
