In the chapters on noncooperative game theory, you will explore advanced topics such as perfect equilibrium, evolutionary stable strategies, and correlated equilibrium, along with a range of subjects often underrepresented in other textbooks.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe cooperative game theory sections cover essential topics like coalitional games, cake-cutting and fairness, cooperative bargaining, and matching theory. Additionally, the book includes an insightful chapter on mechanism design.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in one-semester advanced undergraduate or graduate-level courses, this textbook stands apart from others at the same level. Each chapter begins with clear theoretical definitions, followed by carefully detailed examples. Select chapters include propositions that either demonstrate the existence of equilibrium in abstract games or interrelate various game-theoretic concepts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile rigorous in its scope, the book assumes no advanced background in calculus or algebra. The mathematical exposition is kept as straightforward and self-contained as possible, ensuring that readers can easily apply theoretical ideas to practical examples and follow proofs with ease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIsmail Saglam\u003c\/strong\u003e earned his BSc in Electrical Engineering and his MA and PhD in Economics from Bilkent University.
