An Introductory Course on Mathematical Game Theory
Author: Julio González-Díaz
language: en
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
Release Date: 2010
Presents an introductory and up-to-date course on game theory addressed to mathematicians and economists, and to other scientists having a basic mathematical background. It provides a formal description of the classic game-theoretic concepts together with rigorous proofs of the main results in the field. The theory is illustrated with abundant examples, applications, and exercises.
Games, Theory and Applications
Accessible and informative, this introduction to game theory explores 2-person zero-sum games, 2-person non-zero sum games, n-person games, and a variety of applications. Numerous exercises with full solutions. Includes 30 illustrations. 1986 edition.
Introducing Game Theory and its Applications
The mathematical study of games is an intriguing endeavor with implications and applications that reach far beyond tic-tac-toe, chess, and poker to economics, business, and even biology and politics. Most texts on the subject, however, are written at the graduate level for those with strong mathematics, economics, or business backgrounds. In a clear and refreshing departure from this trend, Introducing Game Theory and its Applications presents an easy-to-read introduction to the basic ideas and techniques of game theory. After a brief introduction, the author begins with a chapter devoted to combinatorial games--a topic neglected or treated minimally in most other texts. The focus then shifts to two-person zero-sum games and their solution. Here the author presents the simplex method, based on linear programming, for solving these games and develops within his presentation the required background in linear programming. The final chapter presents some of the fundamental ideas and tools of non-zero-sum games and games with more than two players, including an introduction to cooperative game theory. This book will not only satisfy the curiosity of those whose interest in the subject was piqued by the 1994 Nobel Prize awarded to Harsanyi, Nash, and Selten. It also prepares its readers for more advanced study of game theory's applications in economics, business, and the physical, biological, and social sciences.
