Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The aim of the course is an introduction to classical and modern concepts of game theory, with a focus on economic applications. The content includes normal and extensive form of games, dominant strategies, Nash equilibrium, iterated games, evolution of cooperation, cooperative game theory, negotiations, mixed extension of games, as well as basic ideas of rational choice and bounded rationality theories. The presentation of theory alternates with the solution of illustrative exercises by the participants. At some points, experimental games are carried out to deepen the understanding of the concepts.
Assessment and permitted materials
Each week, the participants have the opportunity to submit solved exercises. From these, some will be selected for online presentation to all participants during the time of the course. Each presentation counts as an activity point.
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Three activity points during the semester are a minimum requirement. A detailed scheme assigning points to grades will be announced.
Examination topics
