We went over non-linear programming problems with multiple contraints in our previous class on 11.09.2013.
I didn't get to spend enough time on systematic ways of approaching such problems. Here is a short note on this, for the case with 3 constraints:

An example with 2 constraints is considered in the textbooks (see EMEA_14.9 or MAII_8.8).

Now it is - hopefully - correct, except the review lecture at the end which is still TBD. - Nils
We (Nils & the administration) attempted to update the lecture schedule. That was hardly successful, and resulted in a net increase of errors. For the time being, disregard everything from week 38 on.

N.B. In order to make sure I am there an email in advance will be appreciated.
Remember that the first lecture, joint with Math 3, is already on Monday. It will cover (I) "what Math 2 students will learn and Math 3 students should review if they don't know it by heart" - this includes previews of topics you might encounter in 3200/4200/4310 before we get that far in Math 2; (II) practicalities of the course(s), and (III) spend some time on convexity/concavity in a setting that is not at all exam relevant for Math 2, but which you are likely to encounter in the study (convex preferences / the law of diminishing marginal return; separating hyperplanes / the 2nd theorem of welfare economics; stochastic optimization / behaviour towards risk).
Mathematics 2 and 3 will be synchronized in order for some Mathematics 2 lectures to offer review for Mathematics 3, and some Mathematics 3 lectures to offer more examples to Mathematics 2.
It is therefore recommended that students of either course make sure they can attend the other.
We will later publish which lectures this applies to – it is necessary to update this in systems the teachers do not have access to.
Furthermore, Mathematics 2 will have a Monday lecture the first two weeks.
