Mathematical Methods for Economic Theory: a tutorial
by Martin J. Osborne
Publisher: University of Toronto 2007
Number of pages: 301
Description:
This tutorial covers the basic mathematical tools used in economic theory. Knowledge of elementary calculus is assumed; some of the prerequisite material is reviewed in the first section. The main topics are multivariate calculus, concavity and convexity, optimization theory, differential equations, and difference equations. The emphasis throughout is on techniques rather than abstract theory.

Applied Analysisby I.M. Sigal, M. Merkli - University of Toronto
In this course, we deal with modern analysis. Properties of functions are studied as much as they are needed for understanding maps. More specifically, our emphasis is on applications of modern analysis and the material is selected accordingly.
