FYS 1227 - Game Theory

Credits: 4
Game Theory is a subject that tries to determine, in a logical way, the decisions that “players” should take to secure the best possible outcomes for themselves, or for themselves and their allies, in a wide array of human interactions. In order to illustrate the versatility of this topic, during the semester we will investigate applications of Game Theory in a variety of settings, i.e., in economics, business, political science, biology, sociology, computer science, logic, ethics, and sports.
