First, a remark. In high school, a function ℓ:ℝ→ℝ ℓ:R→R is called linear if it has the form ℓ(x)=mx+b ℓ(x)=mx+b . One could make the same definition for functions ℝ n → ℝ m Rn→Rm ; then a function ℓ: ℝ n → ℝ m ℓ:Rn→Rm is linear if it has the form ℓ(x)=Mx+b ℓ(x)=Mx+b wbere M M is a m×n m×n matrix and b∈ ℝ m b∈Rm .
