  • Topic 1[May 2]:A brief history of modern macroeconomics. 下午:3-5点;

  • Topic 2[May 2]:Solow growth model.晚上:6点半-8点半;

How to analyze the canonical growth model?

  • Topic 4 [May 3]:Lagrangian techniques in macroeconomics.晚上:6点半-8点半;

  • Topic 5[May 4]:Optimal growth model in infinite horizon setting. We will discuss how to rewrite the sequential optimization problem as a functional equation problem (Bellman equation). 晚上:6点半-8点半;

  • Topic 6[May 5]:Dynamic programming, fixed-pointtheorem and contraction mapping. Those are critical tools for analyzing the model. We will focus on understanding the results instead of deriving the math yourself.下午:3-5点;
