Halmos Professor Publishes Book on Linear Algebra

“Problems in Linear Algebra and Matrix Theory” is a new book from Halmos Professor Fuzhen Zhang, Ph.D., published by the World Scientific Publishing Company.  Revised and expanded from an earlier version, this new edition contains fifty-five examples and many new problems, based on Zhang’s lecture notes of Advanced Linear Algebra classes here at NSU as well as short lectures at Shanghai University and Beijing Normal University.  Composed of basic, important, and elegant results in linear algebra and matrix theory, the text is intended for upper division undergraduate and beginning graduate students.

Zhang is a professor in NSU Department of Mathematics with interests in matrix analysis, linear and multilinear algebra, operator theory, and combinatorics.  He has been on editorial boards of several mathematical journals and has published more than 80 research papers and 3 books.  Additionally, he has served as Chair, co-Chair, or a member of the Scientific Organizing Committee of the serial International Conferences on Matrix analysis and Applications (ICMAA).  he received his Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of California-Santa Barbara in 1993.
