Game theory is a systematic study of strategic situations. It is a theory that helps us analyze economic and political strategic issues, such as behavior of individuals in a group, competition among firms in a market, platform choices of political candidates, and so on. We will develop the basic concepts and results of game theory, including simultaneous and sequential move games, repeated games and games with incomplete information. The objective of the course is to enable the student to analyze strategic situations on his or her own. The emphasis of the course is on theoretical aspects of strategic behavior, so familiarity with mathematical formalism is required.

We live in an age in which globalization is more than ever an integral part of our lives. This course is concerned with the determination of a country’s output, inflation, interest rates, exchange rates, & trade balance in the global economy. We adopt a highly international perspective, considering the international linkages arising from capital & trade flows as well as a comparison of macroeconomic policies and performance across countries. In addition, the course examines the effects of macroeconomic events on the international business environment. By the end of this course, you should be able to understand the coverage of international macroeconomics presented in print & on TV. Useful sources of macroeconomic news include publications like The Economist or The Wall Street Journal and TV shows on CNBC or Bloomberg. |

Game theory is a systematic study of strategic situations. It is a theory that helps us analyze economic and political strategic issues, such as behavior of individuals in a group, competition among firms in a market, platform choices of political candidates, and so on. We will develop the basic concepts and results of game theory, including simultaneous and sequential move games, repeated games and games with incomplete information. The objective of the course is to enable the student to analyze strategic situations on his or her own. The emphasis of the course is on theoretical aspects of strategic behavior, so familiarity with mathematical formalism is required. |

The course is an introduction to the mathematical modeling of problems of fairness in resource allocation. Among the types of problems we will seek to analyze are: - How should the Red Cross distribute supplies among refugees in a refugee camp.- How should housemates split the rent when the rooms in the house they share have different features that each housemate values differently.- How should students in a dance class be organized in male-female pairs when each male student has preferences over female partners and each female student has preferences over male partners?- When a firm goes bankrupt, how should it liquidation value be divided among its creditors? |
