Translated from two separate volumes in French, Valeurs Propres de Matrices (1988) and Exercises de Valeurs Propres de Matrices (1989). Walter Ledermann translated and added additional material. The authors provide a complete guide to the subject at an elementary level by presenting, in matrix notation, the fundamental aspects of the theory of linear operators in finite dimensions. The many exercises complement the main text, and solutions are provided for selected ones. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
