A lot of economic problems can be formulated as constrained optimizations and equilibration of their solutions. Various mathematical theories have been supplying economists with indispensable machineries for these problems arising in economic theory. Conversely, mathematicians have been stimulated by various mathematical difficulties raised by economic theories. The series is designed to bring together those mathematicians who are seriously interested in getting new challenging stimuli from economic theories with those economists who are seeking effective mathematical tools for their research.

Selected papers from the Workshop on Mathematical Economics held in Tokyo, Nov. 13-15, 2009 This series was launched to realize our long-term goal of bringing together those mathematicians who are seriously interested in obtaining new challenging stimuli from economic theories Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
