This book is intended for those who are familiar with the linear algebra covered in a typical first course and are interested in learning more advanced results.
Linear algebra and matrix theory are essentially synonymous terms for an area of mathematics that has become one of the most useful and pervasive tools in a wide range of disciplines.
This text for a second course in linear algebra, aimed at math majors and graduates, adopts a novel approach by banishing determinants to the end of the book and focusing on understanding the structure of linear operators on vector spaces.
"Suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students, this text introduces basic concepts of linear algebra.
The book is intended for mathematics or physics students engaged in ordinary differential equations, and for biologists, engineers, economists, or chemists who need to master the prerequisites for a graduate course in mathematics.
Matrices and linear transformations are presented as two sides of the same coin, with their connection motivating inquiry throughout the book.
This is the second edition of the best-selling introduction to linear algebra.
Covers a notably broad range of topics, including some topics not generally found in linear algebra books Contains a discussion of the basics of linear algebra This is a graduate textbook covering an especially broad range of topics.
Covers determinants, linear spaces, systems of linear equations, linear functions of a vector argument, coordinate transformations, the canonical form of the matrix of a linear operator, bilinear and quadratic forms, Euclidean spaces, ...
