Objective

Students will learn the main concepts in non cooperative game theory, and will learn how to use them to find equilibria for actual games. Students will get to know very well some battle horse games, such as matching pennies, the prisoners’ dilemma, the battle of sexes and the game of chicken. Students will learn to use equilibrium concepts such as that of Nash equilibrium, and that of subgame perfect equilibrium for sequential games.
