Synopsis

This book presents a systematic account of specific applications of certain matrices, particularly rectangular matrices as distinguished from square matrices, illustrating their many advantages in almost all branches of Mathematics. Matrices are applied freely in the solution of problems in Algebra, Geometry, and Applied Mathematics. Based on an extensive manuscript acquired through years of research, the author establishes a satisfactory mathematical answer to the frequently propounded question "What is a matrix?" The initial volume contained a Calculus of Matrices, based on addition, subtraction, and multiplication, resulting in a completely determinate matrix. It also explored determinoids of a matrix and matrix equations of the first degree, and presented a precise statement of the Law of Cancellation of matrix factors in a matrix equation. This volume focuses more specifically on the theories related to these equations and matrices, before moving onto specific functional applications of matrices in the third and final volume of the work.
