Title: Matrix analysis Content: Matrix analysis is a subfield of linear algebra. It focuses on analytical properties of matrices. In this subject, vector norms and matrix norms are introduced. The goal of this area is deepen understanding to matrix eigenvalues and system of linear equations. This leads to discussions in numerical linear algebra.Horn, R. A., & Johnson, C. R. (2012).

B. (2019). A course in functional analysis (Vol. 96). Springer. But difficulty remains even discussion is limited to matrices (which is a finite dimension mathematical operator). This is because difficulty comes not only from infinite dimension but also non-commutativity.Simon, B. (2015). Operator theory. American Mathematical Society.Alpay, D., Cipriani, F., Colombo, F., Guido, D., Sabadini, I., & Sauvageot, J. L. (2016). Noncommutative analysis, operator theory and applications. Springer International Publishing.Yoshino, Takashi (1993). Introduction to Operator Theory. Chapman and Hall/CRC. ISBN 978-0582237438. And matrices are good examples of non-commutative mathematical operators (In other words, you cannot change the order of matrix multiplication). Matrix analysis is trying to overcome problems caused by non- commutativity. ==Achievements== The following results are known as remarkable achievements in this area: * Matrix Young inequalitiesAndo, T.
