Objectives of the Course
|
Providing a general introduction to game theory.
Introducing the concept of Nash Equilibrium.
Developing hands on experience on the construction of games from various interactions.
Forming a game theoretical basis for analyzing, understanding and predicting the outcomes of various interactions.

Course Content
|
The course is designed to introduce and examine the fundamentals of equilibrium concepts and related tools in games of complete and incomplete information. Different types of games and existing classifications for these games are introduced. Concepts of Nash equilibrium, Pareto-efficiency, best-response analysis, maximinminimax methods, solving games with sequential and simultaneous moves, and related subjects are examined throughout the course.
