Linear Algebra for a 4th year Physics student

I am a senior undergraduate physics major about to move on to graduate school and I feel my linear algebra is very weak. While I have been fine in its applications so far, I worry I am underprepared as I continue my studies. What would you recommend as a textbook to read that provides the tools necessary for applications in physics (eigenvectors, eigenvalues, tensor manipulation, etc.) while not taking for granted proving these techniques? I am currently finding many recommendations for Axler and Strang on the internet

workbook/textbook recommendation?

Hello, I'm (M33) looking for recommendations for text books to refresh my understanding of math. Its been a decade since I've been made to do any math problems, so lots of problems and overly thorough. I want to cover from algebra to calculus. Any recommendations of publisher or author, or anything, would be appreciated. I don't even know where to start! r/math already took down this request T_T

Opinions.

What's your thought on three volumes of Analysis by Herbert Amann and Joachim Escher? Does it cover Complex Analysis and Functional analysis too? Is it suitable for self study right from first volume?

Europeans Real Analysis texts translated into English.

As you saw in the title, I need Europeans Real Analysis book that were translated into English and obviously are not out of print. Maybe a bit biased but preferable if they were originally from Germany and Russia. Thank you :)

How does Fleming's Functions of Several Variables compare to other texts?

How does the book Functions of Several Variables by Wendell Fleming compare to texts like Spivak Calculus on Manifolds, Munkres Analysis on Manifolds? I know one difference is that Fleming uses Lebesgue integration in his integration chapter. But in terms of difficulty and clarity of proofs, is Fleming's text on the same level as the other mentioned texts?

Discrete math book recommendations

I’m looking for a discrete mathematics textbook where the author assumes nothing and explains everything in thorough, clear detail.

Anyone got a favourite?

Hopeless Undecided between Tao or Cummings for Real Analysis - Need Advice

I want to self study Analysis independently, with a book. I am not enrolled in a college class concurrently or anything - everything will be learned from the book. I am currently deciding between reading:

  1. Tao's Analysis 1 & 2
  2. Jay Cummings long form analysis.

I was wondering which one might be better for me. For reference, I have some proof based experience (Discrete-Math level). I would prefer a book that, even if it might be slow, would teach me great intuition and give me a very comprehensive understanding of the content that would set me up very well as I move on to more advanced books. I don't mind spending a lot of time - I just want the strong fundamentals.

What are the pros and cons of each book? Which one would you recommend?

Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art

Found out about the Chinese work, “The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art,” and was blown away by the idea they were solving systems of linear equations BCE. So I go looking for a translation and find this complete translation and commentary. That’s the most expensive non-textbook that I’ve ever seen.

Math book for a smart kid

Any recommendations for an 8 yo genius (my grandson)? He's good at math already but I want to introduce him to some kind of advanced concepts to make him curious, to kind of blow his mind. I saw PBS show about infinity that was great but i couldn't share it with him. I'm looking for something written in a novel-like format with language that's not too overwhelming. Thanks!
