Description
The revised and updated edition of this popular German textbook is unique in its emphasis on algorithmic methods and in its original use
of Mathematica as a tool to obtain solutions to game-theoretical models.
Resolving Conflicts with Mathematica begins
with the basic theory of extensive and normal form games, as well as introducing the fundamental concept of Nash equilibria. The restriction
to two-person games helps to make the material more digestible for the beginner. In later chapters the subtleties of degenerate games
are discussed thoroughly. Many aspects of equilibrium selection theory are treated, including algorithms for determining evolutionary
stable equilibria in biology. Finally, the book looks at the wide-scale application of game theory to practical conflict situations.
Resolving Conflicts with Mathematica includes a set of Mathematica programs which implement all of the algorithms described
in the text. Exercises are closely integrated with the book's material and Mathematica 'notebooks' are supplied with each of the chapters.
Audience
Undergraduate University Students and practitioners of Game Theoretical Models. Used in a wide range of university courses including Economics,
Computer Science, Biology, and Social and Political Sciences.
