ECON5101 REVIEW OF QUANTITATIVE METHODS

This course reviews some of the mathematical methods most widely used in modern economic analysis. We shall cover the following topics: linear algebra, fundamentals of probability, elementary real analysis, onevariable calculus, multivariable differential calculus, and static optimization theories. If time allows, dynamical optimization in discrete and continuous time will be covered as well. It is assumed that the students are familiar with basic calculus and elementary linear algebra.
