In probability theory, Slutsky's theorem extends some properties of algebraic operations on convergent sequences of real numbers to sequences of random variables. [1] The theorem was named after Eugen Slutsky. [2] Slutsky's theorem is also attributed to Harald Cramér. [3]
There are two parts of the Slutsky equation, namely the substitution effect and income effect. In general, the substitution effect is negative. Slutsky derived this formula to explore a consumer's response as the price of a commodity changes. When the price increases, the budget set moves inward, which also causes the quantity demanded to decrease.
The normal equations can be derived directly from a matrix representation of the problem as follows. The objective is to minimize = ‖ ‖ = () = +.Here () = has the dimension 1x1 (the number of columns of ), so it is a scalar and equal to its own transpose, hence = and the quantity to minimize becomes

Slutsky is principally known for work in deriving the relationships embodied in the Slutsky equation widely used in microeconomic consumer theory for separating the substitution effect and the income effect of a price change on the total quantity of a good demanded following a price change in that good, or in a related good that may have a cross-price effect on the original good quantity.
This trivial example has nontrivial generalizations: extending this to immersions of a circle into itself classifies them by order (or winding number), by lifting the map to the universal covering space and applying the above analysis to the resulting monotone map – the linear map corresponds to multiplying angle: (in complex numbers). Note ...
There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.
This theorem has many far-reaching consequences; for example it can be used to prove the existence of the following, among others: Brownian motion, i.e., the Wiener process, a Markov chain taking values in a given state space with a given transition matrix, infinite products of (inner-regular) probability spaces.
