The course provides mathematical techniques to undestand and apply results on analysis, optimization and differential equations with focus on dynamic optimization.
For this lecture participation is obligatory. Students are allowed to miss a maximum of 20% (no matter if excused or not excused).
The class is taught as a lecture accompanied with homework assignments. The lectures are aimed at providing the theoretical framework, while miniexams check the study progress.
- 20% presentation of worked examples
- 40% homework and discussion of results
- 40% written endterm exam
For the written final exam the assessment will be based on the ability to describe and apply the key concepts discussed throughout the course and to choose the appropriate analytical techniques to obtain the relevant information. The endterm exam cannot be retaken. Students need to get at least 50% of the possible points to pass this course.
