Throughout the book, significant motivating examples are woven into the text, and each section ends with a set of exercises. The student will develop a solid foundation in the following topics: Gaussian elimination and other operations with matrices, basic properties of matrix and determinant algebra, standard Euclidean spaces, both real and complex, geometrical aspects of vectors, such as norm, dot product, and angle, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, and discrete dynamical systems, general norm and inner-product concepts for abstract vector spaces.
For many students, the tools of matrix and linear algebra will be as fundamental in their professional work as the tools of calculus; thus it is important to ensure that students appreciate the utility and beauty of these subjects as well as the mechanics. By including applied mathematics and mathematical modeling, this new textbook will teach students how concepts of matrix and linear algebra make concrete problems workable.
