Statement

Let KK be a field, let VV be a vector space over KK, let SS and TT be linear operators on VV, and let λK\lambda\in K. Then each of the following maps from VV to VV is a linear operator on VV.

1. (Sum) The map sending uVu\in V to S(u)+T(u)S(u)+T(u).

2. (Scalar multiple) The map sending uVu\in V to λS(u)\lambda\,S(u).

3. (Composite) The map sending uVu\in V to S(T(u))S(T(u)).

4. (Identity) The map sending uVu\in V to uu.
