The following covers the basics of linear algebra. It could be used as a text for UNC’s linear algebra course, Math 577. It can also be used to provide background in the linear algebra needed to analyze systems of differential equations.

Linear Algebra

This Linear Algebra text has enough material for a year-long course. The following notes would serve for an introductory semester course.
