Linear Algebra

3 units

This course is an introduction to the linear algebra of finite-dimensional vector spaces. It includes systems of equations, matrices, determinants, inner product spaces, and spectral theory. MATH 3300 is not an explicit prerequisite, but students should already be familiar with such basic topics from matrix theory as matrix operations, linear systems, row reduction, and Gaussian elimination. (Material on these topics in early chapters of the text will be covered very quickly.)
