Idea 1: F is known if F mod D1 and F mod D2 are known for distinct lines D1 and D2 . Idea 2: codim(S mod D) ≤ codim(S) (rank theorem). Equality holds iff ∀s ∈ L(U, V ), Im s ⊂ D ⇒ s ∈ S. When, codim(S mod D) < codim(S), say that D is adapted to S.

Application to the first classification theorem Inductive proof. Theorem is trivial if n < 2. Assume now that n ≥ 2. Let S ⊂ L(U, V ) with codim S ≤ dim V − 2. Assume that there are distinct lines D1 = Fy1 and D2 = Fy2 adapted to S. Let F : S → V a RC homomorphism. Then, F mod D1 and F mod D2 are local (by induction). Yields x1 , x2 ∈ U s.t. for all s ∈ S, F (s) = s(x1 ) mod D1
