I have the following doubt:
Suppose f1,…,fn∈2N are such that {f1,…,fn} is linearly independent in the Q-vector space QN. Does this set remain linearly independent in the R-vector space RN?
Here 2={0,1}. I would like hints, not full answers.
Thanks
Edit: I have shown that if there is some I⊆N such that f1↾ is linearly independent over \Bbb Q with |I|\geq n,then we are done, however I can't see why such I should exist.
Answer
Suppose \lambda_1 f_1 + \cdots + \lambda_n f_n = 0, where \lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_n\in\mathbb{R}. Try picking a basis for the \mathbb{Q}-vector space spanned by \lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_n.
