A BRAND NEW, FULLY UPDATED EDITION OF A POPULAR CLASSIC ON MATRIX DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS WITH APPLICATIONS IN STATISTICS AND ECONOMETRICS
This exhaustive, self-contained book on matrix theory and matrix differential calculus provides a treatment of matrix calculus based on differentials and shows how easy it is to use this theory once you have mastered the technique. Jan Magnus, who, along with the late Heinz Neudecker, pioneered the theory, develops it further in this new edition and provides many examples along the way to support it.
Matrix calculus has become an essential tool for quantitative methods in a large number of applications, ranging from social and behavioral sciences to econometrics. It is still relevant and used today in a wide range of subjects such as the biosciences and psychology. Matrix Differential Calculus with Applications in Statistics and Econometrics, Third Edition contains all of the essentials of multivariable calculus with an emphasis on the use of differentials. It starts by presenting a concise, yet thorough overview of matrix algebra, then goes on to develop the theory of differentials. The rest of the text combines the theory and application of matrix differential calculus, providing the practitioner and researcher with both a quick review and a detailed reference.
Matrix Differential Calculus With Applications in Statistics and Econometrics, Third Edition is an ideal text for graduate students and academics studying the subject, as well as for postgraduates and specialists working in biosciences and psychology.
JAN R. MAGNUS is Emeritus Professor at the Department of Econometrics & Operations Research, Tilburg University, and Extraordinary Professor at the Department of Econometrics & Operations Research, Vrije University, Amsterdam. He is research fellow of CentER and the Tinbergen Institute. He has co-authored nine books and is the author of over 100 scientific papers.
HEINZ NEUDECKER (1933-2017) was Professor of Econometrics at the University of Amsterdam from 1972 until his retirement in 1998.
