Linear Algebra for Economists
This textbook introduces students of economics to the fundamental notions and instruments in linear algebra. Linearity is used as a first approximation to many problems that are studied in different branches of science, including economics and other social sciences. Linear algebra is also the most suitable to teach students what proofs are and how to prove a statement. The proofs that are given in the text are relatively easy to understand and also endow the student with different ways of thinking in making proofs. Theorems for which no proofs are given in the book are illustrated via figures and examples. All notions are illustrated appealing to geometric intuition. The book provides a variety of economic examples using linear algebraic tools. It mainly addresses students in economics who need to build up skills in understanding mathematical reasoning. Students in mathematics and informatics may also be interested in learning about the use of mathematics in economics.
Measuring Economic Growth and Productivity
Measuring Economic Growth and Productivity: Foundations, KLEMS Production Models, and Extensions presents new insights into the causes, mechanisms and results of growth in national and regional accounts. It demonstrates the versatility and usefulness of the KLEMS databases, which generate internationally comparable industry-level data on outputs, inputs and productivity. By rethinking economic development beyond existing measurements, the book's contributors align the measurement of growth and productivity to contemporary global challenges, addressing the need for measurements as well as the Gross Domestic Product. All contributors in this foundational volume are recognized experts in their fields, all inspired by the path-breaking research of Dale W. Jorgenson.
Financial Theory with Python
Nowadays, finance, mathematics, and programming are intrinsically linked. This book provides the relevant foundations of each discipline to give you the major tools you need to get started in the world of computational finance. Using an approach where mathematical concepts provide the common background against which financial ideas and programming techniques are learned, this practical guide teaches you the basics of financial economics. Written by the best-selling author of Python for Finance, Yves Hilpisch, Financial Theory with Python explains financial, mathematical, and Python programming concepts in an integrative manner so that the interdisciplinary concepts reinforce each other.

Polynomial Identities in Algebras
This volume contains the talks given at the INDAM workshop entitled "Polynomial identites in algebras", held in Rome in September 2019. The purpose of the book is to present the current state of the art in the theory of PI-algebras. The review of the classical results in the last few years has pointed out new perspectives for the development of the theory. In particular, the contributions emphasize on the computational and combinatorial aspects of the theory, its connection with invariant theory, representation theory, growth problems. It is addressed to researchers in the field.
Lie Algebras, Vertex Operator Algebras and Their Applications
The articles in this book are based on talks given at the international conference 'Lie algebras, vertex operator algebras and their applications'. The focus of the papers is mainly on Lie algebras, quantum groups, vertex operator algebras and their applications to number theory, combinatorics and conformal field theory.
Algebraic Operads
This book presents a systematic treatment of Grobner bases in several contexts. The book builds up to the theory of Grobner bases for operads due to the second author and Khoroshkin as well as various applications of the corresponding diamond lemmas in algebra. Throughout the book, both the mathematical theory and computational methods are emphasized and numerous algorithms, examples, and exercises are provided to clarify and illustrate the concrete meaning of abstract theory.

Maximal Cohen–Macaulay Modules and Tate Cohomology
This book is a lightly edited version of the unpublished manuscript Maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules and Tate cohomology over Gorenstein rings by Ragnar-Olaf Buchweitz. The central objects of study are maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules over (not necessarily commutative) Gorenstein rings. The main result is that the stable category of maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules over a Gorenstein ring is equivalent to the stable derived category and also to the homotopy category of acyclic complexes of projective modules. This assimilates and significantly extends earlier work of Eisenbud on hypersurface singularities. There is also an extensive discussion of duality phenomena in stable derived categories, extending Tate duality on cohomology of finite groups. Another noteworthy aspect is an extension of the classical BGG correspondence to super-algebras. There are numerous examples that illustrate these ideas. The text includes a survey of developments subsequent to, and connected with, Buchweitz's manuscript.
Recent Advances in Noncommutative Algebra and Geometry
This volume contains the proceedings of the conference Recent Advances and New Directions in the Interplay of Noncommutative Algebra and Geometry, held from June 20–24, 2022, at the University of Washington, Seattle, in honor of S. Paul Smith's 65th birthday. The articles reflect the wide interests of Smith and provide researchers and graduate students with an indispensable overview of topics of current interest. Specific fields covered include: noncommutative algebraic geometry, representation theory, Hopf algebras and quantum groups, the elliptic algebras of Feigin and Odesskii, Calabi-Yau algebras, Artin-Schelter regular algebras, deformation theory, and Lie theory. In addition to original research contributions the volume includes an introductory essay reviewing Smith's research contributions in these fields, and several survey articles.
Lebensversicherungstechnik algebraisch verstehen
Das vorliegende Buch beleuchtet die Kalkulation und die Analyse von Lebensversicherungsverträgen aus technischer Sicht. Es setzt sich zum Ziel, die entsprechenden formalen Zusammenhänge algebraisch zu motivieren und verzichtet darauf, die üblichen Kalkulationsobjekte bzw. die standardisierte Nomenklatur zu verwenden. Ein solcher Blickwinkel führt dann beispielsweise dazu Rechnungsgrundlagen als HADAMARD-invertierbare Vektoren aufzufassen, Bewertungen mittels des Skalarprodukts darzustellen, Lebensversicherungen als Elemente bestimmter Orthogonalräume zu interpretieren oder das Deckungskapital als spezielles Element eines affinen Raumes zu identifizieren. Auf diese Weise wird sich herausstellen, dass sich herkömmliche versicherungstechnische Darstellungen (und die entsprechenden Inhalte) als Spezialisierungen eines viel allgemeineren Zugangs ergeben. Indem hier die algebraischen Zusammenhänge, die die Lebensversicherungstechnik bestimmen, in den Vordergrund gerückt werden, ergibt sich ein (zusätzliches) Verständnis für die aktuariellen Eigenschaften, die mit einem Lebensversicherungsvertrag verbunden sind.
