Matrix theory and applications with MATLAB (Q2734567)

The book is designed for an advanced course on matrix theory and applications, which, by numerous examples, illustrates the usage of the powerful software tools for linear algebra available in MATLAB.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe volume is organized in eleven chapters as follows: 1. Review of matrix algebra, 2. Introduction to vector spaces, 3. Similarity, 4. Matrix calculus, 5. Normed vector spaces, 6. Unitary similarity, 7. Singular value decomposition, 8. LU and QR decompositions, 9. Properties of eigenvalues and eigenvectors, 10. Hermitian and positive definite matrices, 11. Graphics and topology.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe whole material has been structured so as to ensure a convenient approach for various categories of readers, depending on their background in mathematics and MATLAB programming, as well as on their current interest in theoretical knowledge and applications. Therefore applications and MATLAB examples are grouped in separate subsections accompanying each theoretical topic. The large number of example (115), pictures (129) and exercises (450) provide a remarkable support for self-study and deep insight. This textbook reflects a considerable teaching experience and it is highly recommended not only to students, but also to educators interested in upgrading lecture notes and seminorms.
