Permutations multiplication by a permutation matrix p swaps the rows of a matrix. The size also called dimension or length of the vector is the number of elements it contains. Thus one sees that a vector space need not be isomorphic to its double dual if it is infinite dimensional, in contrast to the finite dimensional case. Let x and y be unit vectors to make the scaling attractive. In some instances it is convenient to think of vectors as merely being special cases of matrices. A vector space is exactly what it sounds like the space in which vectors live. In the context of inner product spaces of ini nite dimension, there is a di erence between a vector space basis, the hamel basis of v, and an orthonormal basis for v, the hilbert basis for v, because though the two always exist, they are not always equal unless dimv vector spaces.
