Introduction

Popularized by the movie A Beautiful Mind, game theory is the mathematical modeling of strategic interaction among rational (and irrational) agents. Beyond what we call `games' in common language, such as chess, poker, soccer, etc., game theory includes the modeling of conflict among nations, political campaigns, competition among firms, and trading behavior in markets such as the New York Stock Exchange. How could you begin to model keyword auctions, and peer-to-peer file-sharing networks, without accounting for the incentives of the people using them? The course will provide the basics: representing games and strategies, the extensive form (which computer scientists call game trees), Bayesian games (modeling things like auctions), repeated and stochastic games, and more. We will include a variety of examples including classic games and a few applications such as its application to security.

1. Understand the fundamental concepts of game theory, in particular standard game models and solution concepts;

2. Understand a variety of algorithmic techniques for computing game-theoretic solution concepts (equilibria);

3. Apply solution concepts and algorithms to unseen games that are variants of known examples and;

4. Understand the state of the art in some areas of algorithmic research, including new developments and open problems.

1. Game models: Strategic form, extensive form, games of incomplete information (e.g., auctions), succinct representations, co-operative games;

2. Solution concepts: Nash equilibria, subgame perfection, correlated equilibria, Bayesian equilibria, core and Shapley value;

3. Finding equilibria: Linear programming algorithms and;

4. Application of game theory to the real world.

For learner who wish to acquire more knowledge in applying AI practices in organizations and, to understand and help societies to solve problems brought about by the impact of AI.
