The subject focuses on solution of optimalization problems by means of classical and modern methods of optimalization. The initial part is devoted to numerical solutions of certain problems, for which the analytical methods fail. Namely finding the root of equation f(x)=0, approximative evaluation of functions values and approximative solution of ordinary differential equations. In the following part we shall give a brief introduction to game theory, we shall recall the classical result on existence of equilibria of the game (Nash theorem) and we will discuss the methods of finding the optimal strategy of the game. In the end we apply the theory in solving several problems motivated in biology and economy.
Knowledge of fundamentals of numerical mathematics.
