I'm not sure how your two questions are related. The dimension theorem holds for infinite-dimensional vector spaces; but all that this tells us is that ifthen either the range or the kernel of
must be infinite-dimensional.
It is impossible to partition a vector space into subspaces. Ifare subspaces and
then we must have
or
. On top of that, the zero vector would have to be in every part.
