Mathematical economics refers to the use of mathematical methods and techniques to analyze economic problems. It applies mathematical tools and skills to the field of economics, and helps us to understand and explain economic phenomena and make economic decisions and forecasts by establishing mathematical models and making quantitative analysis.

The research contents of mathematical economics include supply and demand, market equilibrium, cost analysis, investment analysis, risk management and other economic issues. It uses mathematical tools such as calculus, linear algebra, optimization theory, game theory, probability theory, statistics, etc., establishes mathematical models through quantitative methods, deduces economic theories, analyzes economic data, and makes economic forecasts and policy analysis.

Mathematical economics plays an important role in the research and application of modern economics. It helps economists and decision makers to understand and solve economic problems more accurately and provide scientific basis for the formulation of economic policies. At the same time, mathematical economics also provides quantitative analysis tools and methods for practical problems such as enterprise decision-making and financial risk management.
