Microeconomics II

0-4 Credits · Level: Graduate, Undergraduate

This is the Game Theory part of the compulsory Micro sequence. The course begins with Normal Form Games, rationalizability and Nash equilibrium. It then covers Extensive Form Games and a variety of refinements of Nash equilibrium, including Sequential Equilibrium. A module of the class is spent focusing on Auction Theory, before moving to finitely and infinitely Repeated Games. Both Nash Bargaining and alternating-offers bargaining are covered in some depth, while Principal-Agent theory is covered as time permits from year to year.
