Discovered by Eduard Weyr in 1885, the Weyr form outperforms the Jordan form in a number of mathematical situations, yet it remains somewhat of a mystery, even to many who are skilled in linear algebra. Written in an engaging style, this book presents various advanced topics in linear algebra linked through the Weyr form. Kevin O'Meara, John Clark, and Charles Vinsonhaler develop the Weyr form from scratch and include an algorithm for computing it. A fascinating duality exists between the Weyr form and the 606 $aAlgebras, Linear 615 0$aAlgebras, Linear. 676 $a512/.5 700 $aO'Meara$b Kevin C$01487727 701 $aClark$b John$0103722 701 $aVinsonhaler$b Charles Irvin$f1942-$01487728 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781675703321 996 $aAdvanced topics in linear algebra$93707704 997 $aUNINA
