The Essentials of a First Linear Algebra Course and More
Linear Algebra, Geometry and Transformation provides students with a solid geometric grasp of linear transformations. It stresses the linear case of the inverse function and rank theorems and gives a careful geometric treatment of the spectral theorem.
An Engaging Treatment of the Interplay among Algebra, Geometry, and Mappings
The text starts with basic questions about images and pre-images of mappings, injectivity, surjectivity, and distortion. In the process of answering these questions in the linear setting, the book covers all the standard topics for a first course on linear algebra, including linear systems, vector geometry, matrix algebra, subspaces, independence, dimension, orthogonality, eigenvectors, and diagonalization.
A Smooth Transition to the Conceptual Realm of Higher Mathematics
This book guides students on a journey from computational mathematics to conceptual reasoning. It takes them from simple "identity verification" proofs to constructive and contrapositive arguments. It will prepare them for future studies in algebra, multivariable calculus, and the fields that use them.
Features
• Provides students with a detailed algebraic and geometric understanding of linear vector functions
• Emphasizes both computational and conceptual skills
• Uses the Gauss–Jordan algorithm to argue proofs—not just to solve linear systems
• Presents the interpretation of matrix/vector multiplication as a linear combination of matrix columns
• Focuses on the subspaces of Rn, orthogonality, and diagonalization
• Includes exercises in each section, totaling over 500 throughout the book
