One parenthesised sequence; \mathsf for state-space; otherwise clean.

Code

8/10

Unicode Greek; pip install at top; PEP8; no figsize.

JAX

out of scope

uses JAX, but JAX rules out of scope.

Figures

No matplotlib titles; lowercase labels; no figsize.

References

9/10

3 {cite} parenthetical; no narrative-author misuse.

Links

Issues#

Critical#

None found.

High severity#

None found.

Medium severity#

  • [qe-writing-006] — Title Case in H2/H3 headings: ## Set Up (87), ### Asset Dynamics (353).

  • [qe-math-005] — Sequence written with parentheses (y_t)_{t \geq 0} rather than curly brackets (line 106).

Low severity#

  • [qe-writing-004] — \mathsf Y and \mathsf S used for state spaces (lines 106, 110); prefer plain letters.

Strengths#

  • Lecture title in correct Title Case.

  • Definitions bolded correctly (“income fluctuation problem”, “household problem”, “value function”).

  • \mathbb{E} used (line 92, 118).

  • Equation labels and {eq} references used cleanly.

  • “IID”/Greek-letter conventions consistent.

  • No transpose, no bold vectors, no matrix-bracket, no \tag, no align-inside-$$ issues.

  • pip install at top.

  • Exercise uses {exercise} + {solution-start} with :class: dropdown and labels.
