Finite-Dimensional Vector Spaces P.R. Halmos
Publisher: Springer




Even though I am not an undergraduate student (yet), I have to point out that this book is amazing as a first read for one good reason: Halmos forces the reader. In order to tackle the next topic in finite projective planes, we need a lightning introduction to finite-dimensional vector spaces. We have seen in the past the proof that every finite dimensional vector space is isomorphic to its double dual.

For example, how does one explain the point of the abstract notion of finite-dimensional vector spaces when, unlike with groups, you don't seem to have an interesting collection of different spaces? You can always define an inner product and a norm if the vector space is finite-dimensional. Angles require something like an inner product. We did rank-nullity last time, and this time we're going to go over a few cool applications to rank-nullity. First, let's just say what everyone's thinking: there's just too many damn finite dimensional vector spaces to consider! Finite-Dimensional Vector Spaces: P.R.
