| Inhalt | 1. Elements of matrix algebra: basic operations, trace, rank, inverse, eigenvalue and spectral decomposition 2. Elements of probability theory: random variables, joint, conditional and marginal distribution, expected value and other moments, change of variables 3. Elements of statistics: point estimation, interval estimation, hypothesis testing, large sample theory 4. The algebra of the multivariate linear regression: degrees of freedom, Gauss-Markov theorem, Frisch-Waugh-Lovell theorem 5. The algebra of instrumental variable estimation 6. The algebra of basic panel data methods: within and between transformation, testing for unrelated effects under non-spherical disturbances 7. Maximum Likelihood Estimation 8.

| Lernziele | This course is a supplement to the course “Econometrics” (12036) for ambitious students. The course follows the topics of Econometrics every week providing formal proofs and additional results using matrix algebra and asymptotic theory. The course is the basis for the more advanced MSc courses in econometrics (Microeconometrics I and II, Time Series Analysis I and II). |
