SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the search for a solution guide for the problems in the book "Linear Algebra" by Hoffman and Kunze. Users confirm that no official solution guide exists, despite extensive searches on platforms like Google. One user, HallsofIvy, points out that the links found lead to fake sponsored content rather than legitimate solutions. The consensus is that students seeking help with the problems in this book will need to rely on alternative resources or peer assistance.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with linear algebra concepts as presented in Hoffman and Kunze
  • Basic research skills for navigating online resources
  • Understanding of problem-solving techniques in mathematics
  • Ability to engage in academic discussions about mathematical literature
NEXT STEPS

I'm currently going through Hoffman and Kunze, and so far it doesn't seem too challenging, however some of the problems later in the book are pretty rough. Does anyone know if they sell a solution guide to the problems? It'd be nice to check my solutions!

@HallsofIvy: read your link again, and conclude that the solutions are not available ;)
Only the fake "Sponsored Links" contain your search terms.
 
I've already done a massive search via google, scanning approximately 12 pages with 25 links on each page, so my conclusion is that it doesn't exist...

Which is why I posted it here in the first place because if there is anyone who knows whether it exists or not, they would most definitely be here!
 

Thread 'Confusion about the Moyal-Weyl twist'

I am studying the mathematical formalism behind non-commutative geometry approach to quantum gravity. I was reading about Hopf algebras and their Drinfeld twist with a specific example of the Moyal-Weyl twist defined as F=exp(-iλ/2θ^(μν)∂_μ⊗∂_ν) where λ is a constant parametar and θ antisymmetric constant tensor. {∂_μ} is the basis of the tangent vector space over the underlying spacetime Now, from my understanding the enveloping algebra which appears in the definition of the Hopf algebra...
