Annotation -
An introduction to algorithmic game theory, a relatively new field whose objective is to study formal models of strategic environments and to design effective algorithms for them. This introductory course covers basic concepts and methods that are illustrated with several practical applications. To successfully pass the course, it is recommended to know basics from complexity theory.

Course completion requirements -

The credit for the tutorial is given after obtaining at least one quater of all available points. The points are given for solving problems that are assigned during semester. The nature of the conditions does not allow repeated attempts for obtaining the credit. Obtaining the credit is necessary before the exam.
