Problems and Theorems in Linear Algebra

Download or read book Problems and Theorems in Linear Algebra written by Viktor Vasil_evich Prasolov and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1994-06-13 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a number of very good books available on linear algebra. However, new results in linear algebra appear constantly, as do new, simpler, and better proofs of old results. Many of these results and proofs obtained in the past thirty years are accessible to undergraduate mathematics majors, but are usually ignored by textbooks. In addition, more than a few interesting old results are not covered in many books. In this book, the author provides the basics of linear algebra, with an emphasis on new results and on nonstandard and interesting proofs. The book features about 230 problems with complete solutions. It can serve as a supplementary text for an undergraduate or graduate algebra course.
