Course Syllabus

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.
