Linear algebra and partial differential equations is designed to provide a firm foundation on the basic notions, vector spaces, linear transformation and diagonalization of matrices, inner product spaces, partial differential equations and application of Fourier series to partial differential equations. In their trademark student-friendly style, the authors have endeavour to provide an in-depth understanding of the concepts that will help students to model various engineering problems and solve them by applying these methods.
