Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
There will be midterm and a final exam (written or oral, depending on the number of students). Additionally I will hand-out exercises which you should solve at home. The final grade consists of a weighted average of these 3 parts.
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Examination topics
Reading list
During the semester students I will make my lecture notes available to the students. If there is a particular interest in some topic, I will mention suitable additional references.

- Elements of Probability theory- Markov processes.
- Applications:
Markov Decision processes (Dynamic Programming)
Stochastic and Repeated Games
Evolution and Learning dynamics
Contract Theory- Stochastic Calculus (eventually)
Brownian Motion, Ito Calculus.
- Applications:
The Holmstrom-Milgrom and the Sannikov Model in Principal-Agent TheoryPrerequisites:
The student should be familiar with the concept of probability (as taught in typical statistics classes for undergraduates), analysis (integral and differential calculus), and decision theory. Knowledge of basic game theory (Strategies, Nash equilibrium) and microeconomics are also very useful.
