The purpose of this manual is to help students to master basic concepts and research methods used in the theory of optimal control. The foundations of mathematical modeling. Systematic mathematical methods for managerial decision-making in linear, nonlinear and dynamic problems of optimal socio-economic processes. Each section contains numerous examples of the application of these methods to solve applied problems. Much attention is paid to comparison of the proposed methods, a proper choice of study design problems, case studies and analysis of complex situations that arise in the study of these topics theory of decision-making, methods of optimal control. It is recommended that teachers, students and graduate students studying advanced mathematics.

Analysis of modern technologies, methods and models used in various types of organizational and corporate structures convincingly proves that the improvement of preparation and decision-making for the management of these structures is currently carried out mainly on the basis of often outdated and not quite corresponding to modern capabilities of computer technology, and also information, software and software developments. The article shows that in modern conditions of global instability in the world, it becomes necessary to use adequate methods for data analysis and preparation of managerial decision-making on the development of organizational and corporate structures. Proposals and recommendations for improving the processes of analytical data processing, extracting useful information from large amounts of data located in the relevant organizational and corporate systems are presented, as well as adequate mathematical models and algorithms that can be successfully used to improve the quality of management decisions by the management of companies. The purpose of the study is to form methods and models for the analysis of strategic alternatives for the development of organizational and corporate systems using the concept of big data, technologies for extracting the necessary information from existing data banks, etc. Materials and methods. The research methods are based on modern information and analytical technologies, data science and models developed by the authors for the analysis of strategic alternatives for the deve¬lopment of organizational and corporate systems. Results. The scientific provisions and developments presented in the article can be used to improve the efficiency of management in various information and analytical systems for various management structures. Conclusion. The results of the research presented in this article make it possible to perform a qualitative analysis of data, to model the options for the work of organizational and corporate structures in an on-line mode, which makes it possible to increase the efficiency of managing their development based on a comparison of alternative options for management decisions.

The purpose of the textbook is to help students to master basic concepts and research methods used in mathematical analysis. In part 2 of the proposed cycle of workshops on the following topics: analytic geometry in space; differential calculus of functions of several variables; local, conditional, global extrema of functions of several variables; multiple, curvilinear and surface integrals; elements of field theory; numerical, power series, Fourier series; applications to the analysis and solution of applied problems. These topics are studied in universities, usually in the second semester in the discipline "Mathematical analysis" or the course "Higher mathematics", "Mathematics". For the development of each topic the necessary theoretical and background material, reviewed a large number of examples with detailed analysis and solutions, the options for independent work. For self-training and quality control of the acquired knowledge in each section designed exercises and tasks with answers and guidance. It is recommended that teachers, students and graduate students studying advanced mathematics.

AbstractIn recent years, trade-control laws and regulations such as embargoes and sanctions have gained importance. However, there is limited empirical research on the ways in which small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) respond to such coercive economic measures. Building on the literature on organizational responses to external demands and behavioral ethics, this study addresses this issue to better understand how external pressures and managerial decision-making are associated with the scope of trade-control compliance programs. Based on a sample of 289 SMEs, the findings show that the organizational responses of SMEs reflect proportionate adjustments to regulatory pressures but only if decision-makers are well informed and aware of the prevailing rules and regulations. Conversely, uninformed decision-making leads to a disproportionate response resulting in an inadequately reduced scope of the compliance program. In addition, the results indicate that SMEs that are highly integrated into supply chains are susceptible to passing-the-buck behavior.
