Subsection CILT Composition of Injective Linear Transformations

In Subsection LT.NLTFO we saw how to combine linear transformations to build new linear transformations, specifically, how to build the composition of two linear transformations (Definition LTC). It will be useful later to know that the composition of injective linear transformations is again injective, so we prove that here.

Theorem CILTI Composition of Injective Linear Transformations is Injective

Suppose that $\ltdefn{T}{U}{V}$ and $\ltdefn{S}{V}{W}$ are injective linear transformations. Then $\ltdefn{(\compose{S}{T})}{U}{W}$ is an injective linear transformation.
