Features: Advanced Algebra is an important foundational course for mathematics majors. It plays a crucial role in cultivating students' abstract thinking abilities, logical reasoning skills, and in preparing them for subsequent courses. It is also a mandatory subject for the postgraduate entrance examination of mathematics departments. Advanced Algebra primarily includes two main parts: polynomials and linear algebra. Linear algebra is also a foundational course for students in engineering and economics disciplines. It constitutes a significant proportion of the mathematics section in the unified postgraduate entrance examination and is one of the essential subjects to be tested. The characteristics of this course are its relatively abstract content, numerous concepts and theorems, close interconnections, and mutual permeation. To help candidates deepen their understanding of the course material, master problem-solving methods and techniques, and improve their exam-taking abilities, we have compiled this book based on our long-standing experience in teaching advanced algebra and the teaching materials used in postgraduate entrance examination tutoring classes.
