Microeconomics
Game Theory Module
The module is delivered within the Ph.D. Programme in Economics, Management & Statistics, jointly offered by the University of Messina and the University of Catania. It is a part of the Microeconomics course and should be understood as an introduction to games and their solution concepts. Lectures will be at an introductory level.
​
Below you can download the outline of the module and the lecture notes. The lecture notes are based on the following textbook:
​
Osborne, M.J. and A. Rubinstein (1994). A Course in Game Theory. MIT Press.
​
Apparently, the book is out-of-print and there is little chance to obtain it (possibly you can borrow it from the library). Nonetheless, thanks to Ariel Rubinstein, you can download a pdf copy of his book from his website, by clicking here.
A free registration is required. Rubinstein's website contains also links to other books that can be downloaded free of charge.
