Abstract
The mathematical content of this chapter is well known, and can be found in any reasonable book on multivariable calculus, e.g. Fleming (1977). Nevertheless, the chapter serves two purposes. First, it presents a wish list, an ideal for which we address the smooth optimization problem comprehensively. We pose certain questions more easily asked now than later. Second, the chapter samples some of the applications of smooth optimization theory to economic analysis.
