The Course has as its main aim the theoretical and technical analysis of the methods and main models useful for the study of the strategic interaction among (economic) agents, integrating the methodological and behavioral approach with experimental tests and considering both the interactions at both the individual and applications to the study of market competition. At the end of the course, the student:
- She/He knows the main concepts of equilibrium for the solution of competitive and cooperative games;
- She/He uses these concepts for the analysis of individual economic behaviour, for the evaluation of the strategic behavior of companies on the market, and for the optimal design of incentive mechanisms.
The course also aims to orient the student to the study of game theory for the acquisition of fundamental theoretical tools for learning "explainable" Artificial Intelligence (XAI)
