They give a first glimpse into the world of algebraic geometry yet they are equally relevant to a wide range of disciplines such as engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis text discusses and classifies affinities and Euclidean motions culminating in classification results for quadrics. A high level of detail and generality is a key feature unmatched by other books available. Such intricacy makes this a particularly accessible teaching resource as it requires no extra time in deconstructing the author’s reasoning. The provision of a large number of exercises with hints will help students to develop their problem solving skills and will also be a useful resource for lecturers when setting work for independent study. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAffinities, Euclidean Motions and Quadrics takes rudimentary, and often taken-for-granted, knowledge and presents it in a new, comprehensive form. Standard and non-standard examples are demonstrated throughout and an appendix provides the reader with a summary of advanced linear algebra facts for quick reference to the text. All factors combined, this is a self-contained book ideal for self-study that is not only foundational but unique in its approach.’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis text will be of use to lecturers in linear algebra and its applications to geometry as well as advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2011-06-02\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780857297099\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-85729-710-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 458\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46540988612748,"sku":"9780857297099","price":34.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780857297099.jpg?v=1775730875","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780857297099","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
