Square Matrices of Order 2
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-85526-4 (ISBN)
Matrices have a vast practical importance to mathematics, science, and engineering; therefore the readership of this book is intended to be broad: high school students wishing to learn the fundamentals of matrix theory, first year students who like to participate in mathematical competitions, graduate students who want to learn more about an application of a certain technique, doctoral students who are preparing for their prelim exams in linear algebra, and linear algebra instructors. Chapters 1-3 complement a standard linear algebra course. Pure and applied mathematicians who use matrix theory for their applications will find this book useful as a refresher. In fact, anyone who is willing to explore the methodologies discussed in this book and work through a collection of problems involving matrices of order 2 will be enriched.
Vasile Pop is an associate professor of mathematics at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania. He teaches linear algebra and functional equation classes and coaches students for SEEMOUS as well as high school students for the International Mathematical Olympiad.

"The book is written in a clear and precise style. The book contains a vast collection of problems varying from easy to difficult levels and their detailed solutions, which help the reader to learn some basic and advanced linear algebra. ... The book will be interesting for people who like matrix theory and its challenging problems; in particular, for students who are preparing themselves for mathematical competitions." (Mohammad Sal Moslehian, Mathematical Reviews, September, 2017)
"This is a book that contains almost everything you would like to know about 2 x 2 matrices. ... the book is addressed mainly to advanced high school students, undergraduate and graduate students and professionals according to their needs for results about 2 x 2 matrices."
