David C. Lay holds a B.A. from Aurora University (Illinois), and an M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of California at Los Angeles. Lay has been an educator and research mathematician since 1966, mostly at the University of Maryland, College Park. He has also served as a visiting professor at the University of Amsterdam, the Free University in Amsterdam, and the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany. He has over 30 research articles published in functional analysis and linear algebra.
As a founding member of the NSF-sponsored Linear Algebra Curriculum Study Group, Lay has been a leader in the current movement to modernize the linear algebra curriculum. Lay is also co-author of several mathematics texts, including Introduction to Functional Analysis, with Angus E. Taylor, Calculus and Its Applications, with L.J. Goldstein and D.I. Schneider, and Linear Algebra Gems-Assets for Undergraduate Mathematics, with D. Carlson, C.R. Johnson, and A.D. Porter.
Professor Lay has received four university awards for teaching excellence, including, in 1996, the title of Distinguished Scholar-Teacher of the University of Maryland. In 1994, he was given one of the Mathematical Association of America's Awards for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics. He has been elected by the university students to membership in Alpha Lambda Delta National Scholastic Honor Society and Golden Key National Honor Society. In 1989, Aurora University conferred on him the Outstanding Alumnus award. Lay is a member of the American Mathematical Society, the Canadian Mathematical Society, the International Linear Algebra Society, the Mathematical Association of America, Sigma Xi, and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. Since 1992, he has served several terms on the national board of the Association of Christians in the Mathematical Sciences.
Linear algebra is relatively easy for students during the early stages of the course, when the material is presented in a familiar, concrete setting. But when abstract concepts are introduced, students often hit a brick wall. Instructors seem to agree that certain concepts (such as linear independence, spanning, subspace, vector space, and linear transformations), are not easily understood, and require time to assimilate. Since they are fundamental to the study of linear algebra, students' understanding of these concepts is vital to their mastery of the subject. David Lay introduces these concepts early in a familiar, concrete R n setting, develops them gradually, and returns to them again and again throughout the text so that when discussed in the abstract, these concepts are more accessible.
原书可能是好书,但是中文版翻译真是太烂了,奉劝诸位能看英文版的尽量看英文的。 ps:第二页的“两个线性方程组称为等价的.若它们有相同的解集.”这是高中生的翻译水平么?简直是侮辱高中生。我真的很怀疑这本书的译者怎么有胆量把自己的名字印在书上的,不嫌丢人么?我真的很...
評分看过这本书里边矩阵的内容还有矩阵在计算机图形学里边的应用部分之后感觉对于计算机图形学豁然开朗. 我没有很深入的看这本书.只看了一些基本运算和概念,作了一些前面的题目.对于我学计算机技术已经够了.
評分最近想进修一下统计,遇到第一个难关就是线性代数,好多东西都忘得差不多了,只记得某年某月曾算过特征值和特征向量…… 依稀记得当年考研时候用的就是Lay老人家这本书的中文版,但想到自己已经是研究僧了,应该看看原版书了,于是决定厚颜无耻地去爱问上偷书。下...
評分A first course in linear algebra is dramatically different from most mathematics courses that precede it.The focus shifts from learning computational procedures to digesting and mastering basic concepts that underlie the computations.To survive,you may need...
評分在学习的同时,知道很多应用实例,记忆非常深刻。 学完这本书,对线性代数的应用可以到一定的广度的了解 但是学完国内一般的线性代数教材,觉得还是非常虚幻。强烈建议国内大学实用。
全是概念啊
评分這本書很傳統的那種...傳統到我想不起一點他的內容哈哈哈,隻剩下一些重要的術語瞭,可惜這些我到現在也全都轉換成德語瞭。
评分5
