"The subject matter that modern economics students are expected to master makes significant mathematical demands. This is true even of the less technical "applied" literature that students will be expected to read for courses in fields such as public finance, industrial organization, and labour economics, amongst several others. Indeed, the most relevant literature typically presumes familiarity with several important mathematical tools, especially calculus for functions of one and several variables, as well as a basic understanding of multivariable optimization problems with or without constraints. Linear algebra is also used to some extent in economic theory, and a great deal more in econometrics"--

Knut Sydsæter est un éducateur et auteur de renom dont les travaux se concentrent sur l'application des mathématiques en économie. Il a collaboré avec des collègues pour développer des approches qui simplifient les concepts mathématiques complexes pour les étudiants en économie. Ses contributions sont appréciées pour leur clarté et leur profondeur, s'établissant comme des ressources essentielles dans le domaine. Son accent est mis sur l'utilité pratique des outils mathématiques dans le raisonnement économique.
Mathematics for Economic Analysis
- 982pages
- 35 heures de lecture
An introduction to those parts of mathematical analysis and linear algebra which are most important to economists. This text focuses on the application of the essential mathematical ideas, rather than the economic theories, and features examples and problems on key ideas in microeconomics.
Economists' mathematical manual
- 206pages
- 8 heures de lecture
This highly-successful manual is the first to present in one volume all of the mathematical formulas and theorems commonly used by economists. It will thus be indispensable to economists, researchers, and students who are in need of exact statements of mathematical results. The third edition has been extensively revised and contains more than 250 new formulas, as well as many new figures.
