In classical linear algebra, a basis is a vector set that generates all elements in the vector space and that vector set is a linear independence set. However, the definitions of the linear dependence and independence in min-plus algebra are little more complex given that the min-plus algebra is the linear algebra over the commutative idempotent semiring. The definition of the linear dependence (independence) is used in this paper is Gondran-Minoux linear dependence (independence). A finite set is Gondran-Minoux linearly dependent if the set can be divided into two sets that form a linear space with an intersection which is not a zero vector. We will define the concept of the bases in min-plus algebra. In this paper also defined the concept of a weak bases and will be shown that the linear dependence (independence) is not needed to form a weak basis. In the last part of the research result's are proven that every basis in a semimodules in min-plus algebra is a weak basis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
