comienzos
Euclides in his work "Elements" presents geometric problems that would later be related to concepts of linear algebra. -
6
Al- juarismi
He introduced algebraic methods in his work, laying the foundations for solving linear equations. -
17
Rene descartes y pierre de fermant
They developed analytical geometry, which unites algebra with geometry and establishes the foundations of linear algebra. -
18
Gabriel Cramer
Develops Cramer Rule for the solution of systems of linear equations. -
19
Carl Friedrich Gauss
He develops the elimination method that bears his name to solve systems of linear equations. Advances are also made in matrix theory by mathematicians such as Augustin-Louis Cauchy. -

David Hilbert
I develop the concept of vector spaces and Hilbert spaces, extending linear algebra to infinite dimensions and establishing a deep connection with quantum physics. -
William Rowan Hamilton
Introduces quaternions, extending the concept of vectors into three dimensions. -
Arthur Cayley
He formalizes matrix theory in his article "A Memoir on the Theory of Matrices", establishing the modern foundations of linear algebra. -
Felix Klein
He proposes the Erlangen Program, unifying geometry and linear algebra under the study of symmetries and transformations. -
