Abstract
This course provides an overview of the basic concepts in game theory: Nash equilibrium, subgame perfect equilibrium, perfect Bayesian equilibrium and others. The main mathematical apparatus is highly abstract, but this abstractness allows it to be used to study a wide range of phenomena. Game theory provides necessary tools to study all economic models presented in other courses, as any model is a game. To illustrate the applicability of the studied concepts, we are going to play several games during classes using online software.
Learning Objectives
- introduce basic concepts of game theory;
- demonstrate these concepts using various games;
- connect studied theoretical concepts to real life;
Expected Learning Outcomes
- building theoretical models;
- critically evaluating theoretical research in economics;
- identifying real life situations where the studied concepts are applicable
- solving models with a given setup related to studied concepts;
- understanding books and papers that contain economic theories based on studied concepts;
