Linear Algebra

A proof-based treatment of linear algebra. Topics include a theoretical exploration of matrix properties including building linear algebra from first principles, including non-commutativity, the properties of inverses, and the structure and organization of the solutions of linear systems. The class builds up to the understanding of the fundamental theorem of linear algebra through a set of equivalent statements about matrix properties. This class requires students to be familiar with mathematical proof writing.
