Introduction to mathematical models in economics. Deterministic and stochastic models. Static and dynamic models. Theory of systems - basics. Stochastic processes - basics. Markov chains - introduction. Decision making processes using Markov chains. Applications of Markov chains in marketing, corporate economics and finance.
