Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Course description: This course provides an introduction to more advanced concepts of Game Theory and mostly applies these concepts to topics in Industrial Organization. Roughly speaking, Industrial Organization analyses both the functioning of markets and firms' behavior in markets. This course builds on and is a continuation of the course "Entscheidungs- und Spieltheorie (MA)". Important applications discussed in this course are auctions and so-called signaling games that are prevalent in both business and daily life.
Assessment and permitted materials
Contrary to what was originally announced, there will be no midterm exam this semester. There will be a Final Exam that will count 100% towards the Final Grade (and Homework Assignments).
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Students should master intermediate microeconomics and the game theory concepts covered in the course "Entscheidungs- und Spieltheorie (MA)". There will be a midterm and a final exam that determine your final grade with equal weight.
Examination topics
More information will be provided in the lectures.
