Abstract
Often used but less known fundamental concepts have been collected in this chapter. These include certain operations on vectors and matrices, notions and basic properties of directed and undirected graphs, a few theorems from advanced calculus, and also fundamental statements from the theory of ordinary and partial differential equations and stochastic processes. Exercises and problems make the material more easy to digest.
