The aim of this manual to deepen and consolidate students’ knowledge gained during their lectures and seminar classes and to develop their creative and analytical skills on the subject of the ‘Economics of Innovation’ discipline. Given that the project is to be done by graduate students and to be of a general nature, its successful implementation also requires mobilization of the previous knowledge and experience, which was gained by studying other disciplines, too.
For MSU students studying at seminars and on their own in the ‘Economics of Innovation’ course.

The manual has been developed in accordance with the Federal State Educational Standard (FGOS) for students of grades 5-9 of a secondary school as an additional educational program on the subject "Technology".
The book outlines methods for solving problems using statistical modeling. The algorithms under consideration are intended for use in parallel computing on computer systems of various architectures. The authors consistently describe methods for obtaining independent streams of pseudo-random numbers and random vectors with a given distribution law, methods for approximate calculation of high-dimensional integrals and numerical solution of some classes of differential equations in ordinary and partial derivatives and simulation modeling methods.
The book is designed for those students who are introduced to elements of computational mathematics and parallel programming as well as researchers who apply numerical modeling to solve applied problems.
The textbook is a generalization of the teaching experience of the university course "Computer work and programming" for students of the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of Moscow State University named after M. V. L. Omonosov and the school course "Computer Science" in the classes at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics at the 54th school of Moscow and in the mathematical classes of the University Gymnasium. The book collects and systematizes the tasks proposed for independent solution during seminars, laboratory work, on tests and exams.
The book is intended for high school students with an in-depth study of mathematics and computer science, students of higher educational institutions who master programming methods and the C language, as well as to help teachers conduct practical classes.
The book presents modern fast direct and iterative methods for solving systems of linear algebraic equations with a large number of unknowns and sparse ill-conditioned matrices. Such systems arise in the grid method for solving boundary and initial-boundary value problems for partial differential equations. The main part of the book is devoted to the construction, justification and algorithmic implementation of methods, as well as the construction of various types of preconditioners, the use of which allows to increase the efficiency of iterative methods. At the end of each chapter, information is provided that complements its content and allows the reader to navigate through a structured list of cited publications. The book contains three appendices, one of which is a summary of information from linear algebra used in various chapters. The book includes a large number of algorithms implementing these methods, and a detailed subject index.
The book will be useful to specialists who use existing effective grid methods to solve differential equations, and to researchers engaged in the development of new methods. It will be useful for university students and postgraduates specializing in numerical methods and applied mathematics.
Keywords: direct methods, iterative methods, convergence, preconditioning, grid equations, systems of linear equations, sparse matrices
The subject matter of this book is the main historical and cultural monuments of ancient Greek pre-literate and written periods; mythology is compared with archeology and is also seen as a historical monument; the book traces the evolution of culture from the depths of savagery to the heights of the intellect.
The book is intended for a wide range of readers, but contains material that may also be of interest to specialists.
The book contains about a thousand tasks that can be used in the study of algebra in both regular and specialized physics and mathematics classes and in preparation for the Unified State Exam and other exams and mathematical Olympiads up to the highest level. It can serve as an addition to the well-known problem books used in secondary and higher school.
It contains collections of problems on the main topics studied at school: algebraic and trigonometric equations and systems, solving algebraic and trigonometric inequalities, proving inequalities, complex numbers. The issues that go beyond the scope of the school curriculum, but accessible to the understanding of schoolchildren, are considered. The necessary theoretical information is presented in the form of task cycles.
The book contains both easy and difficult problems that were offered at mathematical Olympiads at one time or contain non-trivial facts from theory that go beyond the scope of the program. Some tasks are left without instructions and solutions, teachers can use them for training exams and Olympiads.
The book is of interest to both schoolchildren and students, teachers and all lovers of mathematics.
The author talks with Russian scientists about the origins of our problems and modernization prospects and about ways to involve young people in building ‘a knowledge economy’. His essays introduce readers to the unique scientific centers of the past and today many of which still operate under cover of strict secrecy. Among the heroes of the book are Nobel laureates and ‘fringe scholars’, 18th century inventors who did not get any recognition and ordinary residents of restricted-access cities.
