The book provides guidance not only on systems of linear equations and matrix algebra but also on the often-harder-to-grasp topics of vector spaces, linear transformations, determinants, and eigenvector problems.
Property 4 If the sum of the entries of each row in A is equal to the same number k, then k itself is an eigenvalue that corresponds to the eigenvector [1; 1; .
First, introduce the Green's tensor and take its Fourier transform in time and space; then, expand the transformed Green's tensor according to the eigenvector of the Christoffel matrix, and decompose the fields into downgoing waves and upgoing waves; third, use boundary conditions to interatively get the solution in the transform domain in a form of "generalized ray" series; finally, use the Willis inversion technique to get the solution.
