Features: This book is based on the "Basic Requirements for Teaching Linear Algebra" approved by the State Education Commission, and is refined and processed from the second edition of "Linear Algebra" co-authored by Ju Yuma and others. While maintaining the original clear structure, in-depth yet accessible explanations, a rich variety of fundamental examples and exercises, and alignment with the trends of various examination questions, the book has been carefully designed in terms of content organization, selection of examples and exercises, depth, and difficulty to accommodate the varying class schedules of different universities or departments. This makes the book suitable for teaching plans of 30-45 class hours. As a university textbook, it consists of 6 chapters covering topics such as determinants, matrices, systems of linear equations, vector spaces and linear transformations, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, similar matrices, and quadratic forms. Each chapter includes two or three levels of exercises, and a compilation of linear algebra questions from past master's entrance examinations is provided at the end of the book. The book features a clear structure, in-depth yet accessible explanations, and concise content, making it suitable as a university textbook (suitable for teaching plans of 30-45 class hours) or a teaching reference book.
