Positive Definite Matrices (Princeton Series in Applied Mathematics)
"Written by an expert in the area, the book presents in an accessible manner a lot of important results from the realm of positive matrices and of their applications...The book can be used for graduate courses in linear algebra, or as supplementary material for courses in operator theory, and as a reference book by engineers and researchers working in the applied field of quantum information."--S. Cobzas,Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai, Mathematica"There is no obvious competitor for Bhatia's book, due in part to its focus, but also because it contains some very recent material drawn from research articles. Beautifully written and intelligently organised,Positive Definite Matricesis a welcome addition to the literature. Readers who admired hisMatrix Analysiswill no doubt appreciate this latest book of Rajendra Bhatia."--Douglas Farenick,Image"This is an outstanding book. Its exposition is both concise and leisurely at the same time."--Jaspal Singh Aujla,Zentralblatt MATH
