Books by Hugo Woerdeman

Written in clear and concise language, this book covers the standard topics in a second linear algebra course. The book first introduces general fields and emphasizes matrix algebra over finite fields and complex numbers. It then proceeds to cover vector spaces in depth, addressing vector spaces over general fields. Also discussed are standard topics in linear algebra including linear transformations, Jordan canonical form, inner product spaces, and spectral theory. Additional material covers dual spaces, quotient spaces, and tensor products. It includes well-designed exercises and full solutions to almost all exercises.
