Linear Algebra I

First part of two-semester course on Linear Algebra: Starting with the basics of propositional calculus and set theory, we then introduce functions, relations, and proofs by induction. After proving necessary facts regarding groups, rings, and fields, we study Linear Algebra's core subjects, i.e. vector spaces, linear maps, matrices, and linear systems. Appendix includes an introduction to axiomatic set theory and the axiom of choice.
