This two-volume set contains selected papers from the conference Groups St. Andrews 2001 in Oxford. Contributed by leading researchers, the articles cover a wide spectrum of modern group theory. Contributions based on lecture courses given by five main speakers are included with refereed survey and research articles.

Most of the introductory courses on linear algebra develop the basic theory of finite dimensional vector spaces, and in so doing relate the notion of a linear mapping to that of a matrix. Generally speaking, such courses culminate in the diagonalisation of certain matrices and the application of this process to various situations. Such is the case, for example, in our previous SUMS volume Basic Linear Algebra. The present text is a continuation of that volume, and has the objective of introducing the reader to more advanced properties of vector spaces and linear mappings, and consequently of...
