Course objectives
The basic goal of the lecture is the introduction of the student with mathematical methods in the economical theory. The aim of the course is that students have to understand the basic mathematical models of mathematical economy and also a deeper understanding of the equilibrium theory and of the theory of preference relations or of the principles of shorttime and longtime optimization of the firm.
