Advanced LinearAlgebraBruce CoopersteinUniversity of California, Santa Cruz, USA
Starting with familiar con-cepts and slowly building todeeper results, this text focuses on vector spacesand the maps between them that preserve theirstructure (linear transformations). It introducesvector spaces and linear transformations, beforediscussing the algebra of polynomials with coef-ficients in a field. The author then develops thewhole structure theory of a linear operator on afinite dimensional vector space from a collectionof some simple results. He also explores theentire range of topics associated with innerproduct spaces and describes the trace anddeterminant of linear operators and squarematrices. The final two chapters focus on bilin-ear forms and tensor products.Features • Discusses the structure theory of an opera-tor, various topics on inner product spaces,and the trace and determinant functions ofa linear operator
• Covers bilinear forms with a full treatmentof symplectic spaces and orthogonal spaces
• Explains the construction of tensor, symmetric, and exterior algebras
• Takes a gentle approach that graduallybuilds from simple concepts to complexideas and results
• Begins each section with an outline of previously introduced concepts and resultsnecessary for mastering the new material
• Includes a wide variety of exercises andproblems, with selected solutions in theappendices

Finite-DimensionalLinear AlgebraMark S. GockenbachMichigan Technological University,Houghton, USA
Drawing on material fromthe author’s own course, this book gives readersa strong theoretical understanding of linearalgebra. It offers many illustrations of how linearalgebra is used throughout mathematics in suchdiverse areas as combinatorics, differential equa-tions, optimization, and approximation. Theauthor takes students through an axiomaticdevelopment of vector spaces, linear operators,eigenvalues, norms, and inner products. In addi-tion to discussing the special properties of sym-metric matrices, he covers the Jordan canonicalform, an important theoretical tool, and the sin-gular value decomposition, a powerful tool forcomputation. The final chapters present intro-ductions to numerical linear algebra and analy-sis in vector spaces.Features • Provides a thorough foundation for thestudy of advanced mathematics
• Contains a range of exercises in each section, including some that can be solvedusing MATLAB® or other software

How to CountAn Introduction toCombinatorics,Second EditionR.B.J.T. Allenby and Alan Slomson University of Leeds, UK
“… the best one-volume book on combina-torics for undergraduates. It begins slowly andgently, but does not avoid subtleties or difficul-ties. It includes the right mixture of topics without bloat, and always with an eye to good mathematical taste and coherence.Enumerative combinatorics is developed ratherfully … before generating functions are intro-duced. … partitions are introduced in theabsence of generating functions, and thenlater generating functions are applied to them:again, a wise pedagogical move. The orderingof chapters is nicely set up for two different sin-gle-semester courses: one that uses more algebra, culminating in Polya’s counting theo-rem; the other concentrating on graph theory,ending with a variety of Ramsey theory topics.… I was very much impressed with the first edition when I encountered it in 1994. I like thesecond edition even more. …”

A ConciseIntroduction toPure MathematicsThird EditionMartin LiebeckImperial College, London, UK
“This book displays a unique combination oflightness and rigor, leavened with the rightdose of humor. When I used it for a course, stu-dents could not get enough, and I have beenrecommending independent study from it tostudents wishing to take a core course in analy-sis without having taken the prerequisitecourse. The material is very well chosen andarranged, and teaching from Liebeck’s bookhas in many different ways been among mymost rewarding teaching experiences duringthe last decades.”
—Boris Hasselblatt, Tufts University, Medford, Massachusetts, USA
“… This book will give a student the under-standing to go on in further courses in abstractalgebra and analysis. The notion of a proofwill no longer be foreign, but also mathemat-ics will not be viewed as some abstract blackbox. At the very least, the student will have anappreciation of mathematics.
As usual, Liebeck’s writing style is clear andeasy to read. This is a book that could be readby a student on his or her own. There is a wideselection of problems ranging from routine toquite challenging.”

Praise for the First Edition
“This is an outstanding book on the defaultmodels that are used internally by financialinstitutions. This practical book delves into themathematics, the assumptions and theapproximations that practitioners apply tomake these models work.”
—Glyn A. Holton, Contingency Analysis
“… a well-rounded introduction.”—Journal of the Operational Research Society
While continuing to focus on common mathe-matical approaches to model credit portfolios,this second edition presents updates on modeldevelopments that have occurred since the pub-lication of the bestselling first edition. It recom-mends using a variety of models to shed light ondifferent aspects of the true nature of a credit riskproblem, thereby allowing the problem to beviewed from different angles. It also includesmany worked out examples and numericalresults. New to the Second Edition• An expanded section on techniques for the generation of loss distributions
• Introductory sections on new topics, suchas spectral risk measures, an axiomaticapproach to capital allocation, and nonhomogeneous Markov chains
• Updated sections on the probability ofdefault, exposure-at-default, loss-given-default, and regulatory capital
• A new section on multi-period models• Recent developments in structured credit

Praise for the First Edition
“This is a remarkable book that will be a valu-able reference for many people, including me.The book shows great care in preparation, andthe ample details and motivation will beappreciated by lots of students. The solidpunches at the end of each chapter will beappreciated by everybody. It deserves successwith many adoptions as a text.”—Irving Kaplansky, Mathematical Sciences Research
Institute, Berkeley, California, USA
“An extremely well-written and clear presenta-tion of algebraic number theory suitable forbeginning graduate students. The many exer-cises, applications, and references are a veryvaluable feature of the book.”
—Kenneth Williams, Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
The second edition of this popular book featurescoverage of L-functions and function fields toprovide a more modern view of the field. Thisedition also introduces class groups for bothbinary and quadratic forms, making it much easier to prove the finiteness of the class numberof both groups via an isomorphism. Along withupdated problem sets and additional examples,the text provides new results on the relationshipbetween quadratic residue symbols and funda-mental units of real quadratic fields in conjunc-tion with prime representation.

“This terrific book is testimony to RichardMollin’s mathematical erudition, wonderfultaste, and also his breadth of culture. … awondrous book, successfully fulfilling theauthor’s purpose of effecting a bridge to mod-ern number theory for the somewhat initiated.… it’s very nice to find in Mollin’s book a highquality and coherent treatment of this beauti-ful material and pointers in abundance towhere to go next.”
—Michael Berg, Loyola Marymount University, MAA Review, 2009
By covering a wide range of algebraic, analytic,combinatorial, cryptographic, and geometricaspects of number theory, this text provides themost up-to-date and comprehensive materialfor a second course in this field. With numerousexamples and exercises, it begins with coverageof algebraic number theory, binary quadraticforms, Diophantine approximation, arithmeticfunctions, p-adic analysis, Dirichlet characters,density, and primes. The author then appliesthese tools to Diophantine equations, beforedeveloping elliptic curves and modular forms.He also presents Fermat’s Last Theorem, the ABCconjecture, and sieve methods.Solutions manual available for qualifying instructors
