relations between vector space, span, subspace, affine set, hyperplane

CharacteristicVector SpaceSpanSubspaceAffine SetHyperplane
DefinitionA set of vectors that can be added together and multiplied by scalarsThe set of all linear combinations of a set of vectors.A subset of a vector spaceA set of vectors that can be obtained by adding a single vector to the span of a set of vectors.

can but no need to pass through the origin

linear + scalar = affine
A subspace of a vector space, dim hype = dim vec space - 1
Linear algebra attributesclosureclosureclosure contain the zero vector of the vector space.closure contain min 1 vector not in the span of the vectors being added to.

not necessarily preserve vector addition and scalar multiplication
closure contain min 1 vector not in span of vectors defining hyperplane
