Essential Linear Algebra with Applications, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2014 A Problem-Solving Approach
Auteur : Andreescu Titu
Rooted in a pedagogically successful problem-solving approach to linear algebra, the present work fills a gap in the literature that is sharply divided between elementary texts and books that are too advanced to appeal to a wide audience. It clearly develops the theoretical foundations of vector spaces, linear equations, matrix algebra, eigenvectors, and orthogonality, while simultaneously emphasizing applications and connections to fields such as biology, economics, computer graphics, electrical engineering, cryptography, and political science.
Ideal as an introduction to linear algebra, the extensive exercises and well-chosen applications also make this text suitable for advanced courses at the junior or senior undergraduate level. Furthermore, it can serve as a colorful supplementary problem book, reference, or self-study manual for professional scientists and mathematicians. Complete with bibliography and index, "Essential Linear Algebra with Applications" is a natural bridge between pure and applied mathematics and the natural and social sciences, appropriate for any student or researcher who needs a strong footing in the theory, problem-solving, and model-building that are the subject?s hallmark.
Preface.- Linear Phenomena and Euclidean Spaces of Small Dimension.- Concrete Vector Spaces.- Vector Spaces and Subspaces.- Linear Transformations.- More Matrix Algebra and Determinants.- General Theory of Linear Equations.- Eigenvectors.- Orthogonality.- Forms.- Vector Spaces over Finite Fields.- Appendix A: Complex Numbers.- Appendix B: Polynomials over Complex Numbers.- References.- Index.
Numerous applications are treated in fields such as computer science, engineering, and the social sciences
Over 500 problems (roughly half solved), often presenting two or more solutions; one more fundamental and elementary, the second more conceptual and sophisticated
Can serve as an introductory or advanced undergraduate textbook, a supplementary problem book, a reference work for professionals, and a resource for independent study
