DESCRIPTION:
The approach to differential equation flows out of matrix-centered analysis David Rodgers I prefer Sharma to Boas maybe because it is written from the perspective of physicists/chemists rather than mathematicians. (Mathematicians would likely consider it a bug turned into a feature.) Together, these two books cover thewaterfront; and then some.
This well-written book gives, in an easy-to-read style, a step-by-step and comprehensive understanding about the various concepts, theories and applications of vector spaces, matrices and tensors. They have wide applications in a number of subjects ranging from solid state physics, solid/fluid mechanics to relativity and electromagnetics. The book equips the reader with the fundamental knowledge in such subjects as matrix theory, linear algebraic equations, applications of eigenvalues and eigenvectors, diagonalisation process, quadratic forms, Cartesian tensors and more.
