Abstract

This paper shows and explains two problems in Economics and Finance, both dealt with a Lie Theory approach. So, mathematical aspects for these approaches are put forward and discussed in several economic problems which have been previously considered in the literature. Besides, some advances on this topic are also shown, mentioning some open problems for future research.
