Statement
The vector space (considered with its usual topology) [ilmath]\mathbb{R}^n[/ilmath] is a topological vector space[1].
- That means the operations of:
- Addition, [ilmath]\mathcal{A}:\mathbb{R}^n\times\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^n[/ilmath] given by [ilmath]\mathcal{A}:(u,v)\mapsto u+v[/ilmath] is continuous and
- Scalar multiplication, [ilmath]\mathcal{M}:\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^n[/ilmath] given by [ilmath]\mathcal{M}:(\lambda,v)\mapsto \lambda v[/ilmath] is also continuous
Proof
Grade: C
This page requires one or more proofs to be filled in, it is on a to-do list for being expanded with them.
Please note that this does not mean the content is unreliable. Unless there are any caveats mentioned below the statement comes from a reliable source. As always, Warnings and limitations will be clearly shown and possibly highlighted if very important (see template:Caution et al).

Advanced linear algebra - Roman - page 79. Should be easy enough to work out though once the topological basis stuff gets sorted
