Math involved in portfolio management

as the title suggests, which is the math level required to succeed in PM?

1) + - / ? 2) adv time series, VAR models, adv stats, mult calc 3) differential eq (B&S model and over it)

actually i do know adv math but i'd like some insight on the math required on daily tasks.

thanks in advance!
