The characteristic polynomial plays a central role in the theoretical development of linear algebra and matrix analysis, but it is not alone in this respect. There are other polynomials that occur ...

The author introduces a conceptual framework that permits the meaningful solution of various algebraic problems with multivariate polynomial equations whose coefficients have some indeterminacy; for ...

Although there have been significant advances in some quarters, this work remains the only systematic development of the theory of matrix polynomials. The book is appropriate for students, instructors ...
