Cambridge Press. Se details below.
- Video lectures given by Prof Gilbert Strang at MIT exits and may be
viewed for free.
These video lectures offer an independent review of the whole subject
based on the textbook in item 1) above.

These video lectures are assumed to be of some importance and gives
valuable support when working with the theory and the self study for working out a colloquium.
- I suggests that You visit the web-site (for e.g. downloading parts
of the text in the book):
http://math.mit.edu/linearalgebra/
This web-site is of great value and gives an overview of the textbook
used as syllabus in this PhD course.
several sections of the book are directly available online.
Details regarding the syllabus in the textbook in Item 1 above
(Strang (2009). Introduction to Linear Algebra):
1. Important chapters is: Ch.3 Vector Spaces and Subspaces + Ch. 4
Orthogonality + Ch. 6 Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors + some parts from
Ch. 9, i.e. condition numbers as in Ch. 9.2.
2. The entire book is syllabus.
3. Only overview: Determinants in Ch. 5, Jordan form p. 358, 482.
