In the seminar, we will discuss recent developments in algorithmic game theory. Algorithmic game theory is a young and dynamic field in the intersection of economics, operations research, and computer science that is concerned with the computation of good solution that can be implemented in a distributed setting where agents act selfishly. Examples include the analysis and improvement of traffic, the computation of equilibria, voting rules that cannot be manipulated, auction design, and ad auctions to allocate ad slots in a sponsored search setting.
A component of the Seminar is an ungraded term paper.
Admission: July 1 - October 9, 2019 via AGNES, maximal admission of 20 students |
