Synopsis
Nonnegative matrices is an increasingly important subject in economics, control theory, numerical analysis, Markov chains, and other areas. This concise treatment is directed toward undergraduates in mathematics and related fields without specialized knowledge of the subject at the postgraduate level. Topics include graph theory, unitary and Hermitian matrices, and positive definite matrices as well as stochastic, genetic, and economic models. Problems, with solutions, enhance the text.
