Lectures on Game Theory: International Monographs on Advanced Mathematics and Physics

Lectures On Game Theory: International Monographs On Advanced Mathematics And Physics is a comprehensive book written by Elena Sergeevna Ventzel. The book is an in-depth study of game theory, which is the mathematical study of decision-making in situations where two or more individuals or organizations are involved. The book is part of the International Monographs on Advanced Mathematics and Physics series.The book is divided into ten chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of game theory. The first chapter introduces the concept of game theory and its applications in various fields. The second chapter covers the basics of two-person zero-sum games, while the third chapter deals with the more complex topic of two-person non-zero-sum games.The fourth chapter is dedicated to the study of n-person games, which involve more than two players. The fifth chapter covers the concept of cooperative games, where players work together to achieve a common goal. The sixth chapter deals with the topic of bargaining games, where players negotiate to reach an agreement.The seventh chapter covers the concept of repeated games, where players interact with each other over a period of time. The eighth chapter deals with the topic of stochastic games, where players make decisions based on probabilities. The ninth chapter covers the topic of differential games, where players make decisions based on the rate of change of variables.The final chapter of the book is dedicated to the study of applications of game theory in various fields, including economics, political science, and psychology.Overall, Lectures On Game Theory: International Monographs On Advanced Mathematics And Physics is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding game theory and its applications. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the subject and is suitable for both students and researchers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
