Course Syllabus

Abstract

The purpose of the course "Welcome to Game Theory" is to introduce students to the basic ideas underlying the key concepts of game theory, such as equilibrium, rationality and cooperation. The course uses very little mathematics and it is ideal for those looking for a conceptual introduction to game theory.
Learning Objectives

Learning Objectives

  • understand the meaning of business competition, political campaigns, the struggle for the existence of animals and plants, etc.;
  • to view game theory as a kind of "game" in which people try to do their best against others;
  • form an idea of key concepts in game theory and try to outline informal basic ideas that are often hidden behind mathematical definitions
Expected Learning Outcomes

Expected Learning Outcomes

  • Analyse of the relationship between rationality and Nash equilibrium and the possible intellectual abilities of players, spanning the range from unlimited abilities for complex reasoning to absolutely zero intelligence.
  • Analyze a wide range of social and economic problems using a single structure
  • Consider the Nash equilibrium and the prisoner's dilemma. Grasp the issues: Market competition Why do people come to play Nash equilibrium? Why do people come to play Nash equilibrium? Why do people come to play Nash equilibrium? Stylized facts and Nash equilibrium.
  • Digest the specifics of the basic concept of solving game theory-and central concept with the help of various examples.
  • Explains of the most important and General message of game theory: rational behaviour often leads to a socially undesirable outcome.
  • Mastering the concept of rational decision-making (useful but not sufficient to provide guidelines). Motivated examples and some history of game theory
