Game Theory(Economics 514)
Fall 1999
Logistics
We (provisionally) meet on Tuesdays andThursdays, 10:40a-12:10p, in Bendheim317.
I will create a mailing list for thecourse. Therefore, please send me email at your earliest convenience soI can add you to the list. You do not want to miss important announcements, doyou?
The course has a Web page at http://www.princeton.edu/~marciano/eco514.html.You should bookmark it and check it every once in a while, as I will be addingmaterial related to the course (including solutions to problems, papers,relevant links, etc.)
If you need to talk to me, you can email meat marciano@princeton.edu for anappointment, or just drop by during my regular OH (Wed 1:00-2:30). My office is309 Fisher.
Textbook
The main reference for this course is:
OSBORNE, M. and RUBINSTEIN, A. (1994): A Course in Game Theory, Cambridge, MA:MIT Press (denoted “OR” henceforth)
If you are planning to buy a single bookfor this course, get this one. However, I will sometimes refer to the followingtexts (which, incidentally, should be on every serious micro theorist’sbookshelf):
MYERSON, R. (1991): Game Theory. Analysis of Conflict, Cambridge, MA: HarvardUniversity Press (denoted “MY” henceforth)
FUDENBERG, D. and TIROLE, J. (1991): Game Theory, Cambridge, MA: MIT Press (denoted “FT”henceforth)
Plan of the Course
Please note: R indicates required readings;O indicates optional readings; and Lmeans that relevant lecture notes will be distributed in class. Lecture notesshall be considered requiredreadings.
