Linear Algebra: A Pure Mathematical Approach by Harvey E. Rose (English) Paperba

Description: Linear Algebra by Harvey E. Rose Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In algebra, an entity is called linear if it can be expressed in terms of addition, and multiplication by a scalar; But linear algebra contains some fine pure mathematics and so a modern text taking the pure mathematicians viewpoint was thought to be worthwhile. Publisher Description Linear Algebra is one of the most important branches of mathematics - important because of its many applications to other areas of mathematics, and important because it contains a wealth of ideas and results which are basic to pure mathematics. This book gives an introduction to linear algebra, and develops and proves its fundamental properties and theorems taking a pure mathematical approach - linear algebra contains some fine pure mathematics. Main topics: vector spaces and algebras, dimension, linear maps, direct sums, and (briefly) exact sequences; matrices and their connections with linear maps, determinants (properties proved using some elementary group theory), and linear equations; Cayley-Hamilton and Jordan theorems leading to the spectrum of a linear map - this provides a geometric-type description of these maps; Hermitian and inner product spaces introducing some metric properties (distance, perpendicularity etc.) into the theory, also unitary and orthogonal maps and matrices; applications to finite fields, mathematical coding theory, finite matrix groups, the geometry of quadratic forms, quaternions and Cayley numbers, and some basic group representation theory Author Biography "Roses Linear Algebra is a highly sophisticated undergraduate work...This book would be excellent for mathematics majors or for non-majors with access to a second course in which applications were presented. Summing Up: Recommended for lower- and upper-division undergraduates." --Choice Details ISBN 376436792X ISBN-13 9783764367923 Title Linear Algebra Author Harvey E.
