📐 Intersection of Subspaces

The intersection of any collection of subspaces of $V$ is a subspace of $V$.

Proof: Let $\\{W_i\\}_{i \\in I}$ be subspaces of $V$ and let $W = \\bigcap_{i \\in I} W_i$.

- **Non-empty:** Each $W_i$ contains $\\mathbf{0}$, so $\\mathbf{0} \\in W$.

- **Closure under addition:** If $u, v \\in W$, then $u, v \\in W_i$ for all $i$. Since each $W_i$ is a subspace, $u + v \\in W_i$ fo...
