We analyze price formation and economic performance in competitive and monopolist markets by using optimization, statistical and stochastic methods. Microeconomic techniques are used to analyze various pricing decisions and problems such as price discrimination and price elasticity estimation. We also discuss causal inference by using instrumental variables and difference-in-differences design. Finally, we briefly discuss multi-armed bandits and their algorithms. This course also introduces Python to students.
