Geometry Of Matrices: In Memory Of Professor L K Hua (1910 a 1985)

The present monograph is a state-of-art survey of the geometry of matrices whose study was initiated by L K Hua in the forties. The geometry of rectangular matrices, of alternate matrices, of symmetric matrices, and of hermitian matrices over a division ring or a field are studied in detail. The author''s recent results on geometry of symmetric matrices and of hermitian matrices are included. A ch...
