The course will address the most basic concepts of cooperation, how to define actions in credible ways, define and achieve equilibrium, what is dominance, and what is ‘cheap talk’.

Foundations of game theory; Simultaneous Games; Prisoners’ dilemma: the most known game; Mixed-strategy Equilibria; Repeated games, Sequential games; Cheap talk.
