A comment on The Geometry of Reflection Groups (2015) [pdf]. Parent comment
Oh! What an omission I made.
A solid linear algebra background is a must for absolutely everything.
There's nothing one can do without it. Not Calculus in several variables, not geometry, not group theory, etc.
I sort of assumed that people with diff. eq. under their belt know linear algebra well, but it's often not the case.
I can strongly recommend the following two texts for the subject:
-Sheldon Axler: Linear Algebra Done Right
-Serge Treil: Linear Algebra Done Wrong
