Synopsis

This book is the sequel to one of SUMS' best-selling titles, Basic Linear Algebra. The first chapter recaps the prerequisites for those unfamiliar with the first volume and, as with the first volume, there is a wealth of illustrative and worked examples, and exercises with solutions. The book also features a brief introduction to the use of Maple in linear algebra calculations

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

"...it embodies a beautiful, concise and precise treatment of the subject, with succinct numerical and algebraic worked examples at the right points, and many exercises...This is an excellent textbook which, together with the earlier book, comprises a very nearly complete introduction to linear algebra which not only the undergraduate but also the advanced reader will enjoy studying." --Zentralblatt Math

"The present book is a contribution of the volume Basic Linear Algebra of the same authors, which appeared in the same Springer series. ... It is a very interesting, accessible book for undergraduates (or teacher professors), and the many examples and exercises should really help the undergraduate to study its contents." --Koen Thas, Bulletin of the Belgian Mathematical Society, Vol. 11 (4), 2004

"The present book is a natural sequel to the same authors successful SUMS volume Basic Linear Algebra . The most advanced topics here take the reader to the very heart of the subject ... . To sum up, this textbook is well suited for self-study or for a one- or two-semester course. Therefore, we warmly recommend it to undergraduate students studying as well as professors teaching Linear Algebra at any level." --Ferenc Móricz, Acta Scientiarum Mathematicarum, Vol. 69, 2003

Présentation de l'éditeur

Further Linear Algebra is a natural sequel to the authors' highly acclaimed SUMS volume "Basic Linear Algebra". The more advanced topics covered here take the reader to the very heart of the subject, and include inner product spaces, direct sums of subspaces, the primary decomposition theorem and various canonical forms for matrices. Furthermore, the authors provide a brief introduction to the use of MAPLE in linear algebra calculations, and biographical profiles of eminent mathematicians associated with the subject.An introductory chapter recaps the prerequisites (for those readers unfamiliar with the first volume), and a wide range of worked examples and exercises (with solutions) are strategically placed throughout the text to consolidate understanding.
