Here is a quote from pages 4 and 5 of https://aetos.it.teithe.gr/~gouliana/en/2017-polynomials.pdf




As it is well known from nonlinear algebra, the structure of a typical nonlinear algebraic system of $n$ equations with $n$ unknowns has the form
$$f_1(x_1, x_2, ..., x_n)=0$$
$$f_2(x_1, x_2, ..., x_n)=0$$
$$cdots$$
$$f_n(x_1, x_2, ..., x_n)=0$$
Or using vector notation, $F(x)=0$ where
$$F=(f_1, f_2, ..., f_n)^T$$
is a vector of non-linear functions $f_i(x)=f_i(x_1, x_2, ..., x_n)$
each being defined in the vector space
$$Omega=prod_i=1^nalpha_i, beta_i subset textR^n$$
of all real valued and continuous functions.




My question is what does the above vector space mean?

Please clarify your specific problem or add additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it’s hard to tell exactly what you're asking. See the How to Ask page for help clarifying this question. If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.














  • I assume that $alpha_i, beta_i$ is supposed to represent an interval. Aren't there some kind of brackets around it? But in any event, this isn't a vector space with the usual definition of addition. If the source says it's a vector space, it must define what addition and scalar multiplication mean.

    What you've written makes no sense to me. I can't tell what things are in $Omega$. Please edit the question to include more context for the source of the problem.

    Seems like a mistake. Overall, the text does not impress me as a hight-quality text, maybe you should find a better textbook.

From the context, he means that each of the coordinate functions $f_i$ is defined and continuous on $$Omega=prod_i=1^n[alpha_i, beta_i] subset textR^n$$



The vector space referred to is the vector of space of such functions.



To put it another way, $$
Omega=alpha_ileq x_ileqbeta_i, i=1,2,dots,n
$$



This isn't what the paper says, but I feel pretty sure that's what it means. I'm not certain, though, about the inequalities. Perhaps they are meant to be strict.
