This text develops linear algebra with the view that it is an
important gateway connecting elementary mathematics to more
advanced subjects, such as advanced calculus, systems of
differential equations, differential geometry, and group
representations. The purpose of this book is to provide a treatment
of this subject in sufficient depth to prepare the reader to tackle
such further material. The text starts with vector spaces, over the
sets of real and complex numbers, and linear transformations
between such vector spaces. Later on, this setting is extended to
general fields. The reader will be in a position to appreciate the
early material on this more general level with minimal effort.
Notable features of the text include a treatment of determinants,
which is cleaner than one often sees, and a high degree of contact
with geometry and analysis, particularly in the chapter on linear
algebra on inner product spaces. In addition to studying linear
algebra over general fields, the text has a chapter on linear
algebra over rings. There is also a chapter on special structures,
such as quaternions, Clifford algebras, and octonions.
