Well, you should obviously know linear algebra, and what all the basic matrix operations mean. The thing to do for this project is to rewrite the matrices to be more like the polys, where the elements are not just sympy expressions but rather elements of some ground type. This way, we can do things like have matrices over gmpy rationals, or matrices over rational functions where they automatically reduce to 0. You should look at the linear algebra related parts of https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/1840 as a start (most of that is polys stuff, which you don't need to worry about).
