Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
UPDATE ON FORMAT MARCH 2020: Until further notice, all teaching will take place remotely. Lectures are uploaded on Moodle every week so that you can watch them at the normal lecture time. A live chat is also available on Moodle for you to ask questions during the lecture time. Problem sets should still be submitted on Moodle and still count towards your final grade. Solutions to the problem sets will be posted online and a video commentary will be added. All official communication on the course will be done via email or Moodle.Format: The topics of the course will be presented by the lecturer. Students are expected to read the material in advance so that there can be active interaction during the lectures. There are separate exercise sessions where problem sets will be discussed. In game theory it is very important to try to solve the exercises yourself. When problems are discussed, students are therefore expected to have worked on the problem sets in advance.Course content: This course builds upon and extends the required second-year microeconomics course (040102 UK). It goes beyond the study of simple choices by consumers and firms by exploring how economic agents make decisions in more complex environments.In decision theory we will study the behaviour of individual agents facing uncertainty. For instance, investors need to choose how to invest when they don't know whether stock markets will produce positive or negative returns, firms need to decide how much quantity to produce when they don't know whether a recession is coming or not.Game theory studies the behaviour of agents who interact with other agents. For example, firms decide whether to enter a new market by anticipating how their competitors will react. Workers decide how to cooperate with others by anticipating how this will affect their reputations.All theoretical concepts will be discussed in the context of many different applications.
