Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Aims: students learn basic quantitative methods for applications in business and economics. The mathematical tools will be applied in exercises in the Exercises class that takes place parallel to the lecture.

Contents: one-dimensional analysis: sequences and series, real functions in one variable, continuity, some special functions such as exponential function and logarithm, differentiability and derivatives, study and sketching of curves, convexity and concavity, Taylor series, first and second order criteria for local extrema, introduction to integration theory, antiderivative, calculation of areas with integrals. Linear algebra: vectors, matrices, linear (in)dependence, inner product, euclidian norm, orthogonality of vectors, determinants of matrices, inverse matrix, introduction to systems of linear equations, eigen-values and eigen-vectors, definiteness of matrices, quadratic forms

Methods: In the lecture the theory will be presented and some basic examples will be explained. The students will get homework for the Execises class which deepen and supplement the theory. The solutions will be presented by students in the Exercises class "UE Übungen zu Mathematik 1, 4 ECTS, 2 SSt. (pi)" .
