SINOSSI LIBRO

Since the origins in its modern form, due to the seminal works of von Neumann and Nash, Game theory has most often been considered for its applications to economic and social sciences. However, its mathematical roots are more general, and its set of analytical tools that can be used to predict the outcome of interactive decision situations can be very relevant for many other scientific fields, especially including information and industrial engineering, where it has recently become a common curricular subject in university programs. To train the “brain muscles” to solve problems in a game theoretic way, students may find it useful to practice on concrete examples. For this reason, this book presents a collection of exercises that can be suitable for any entry-level course on Game theory. While there is no specific major for which such a practical activity can be useful, the book is conceived with an engineering spirit, and a general regard for modeling and optimization (from technological scenarios to childish gameplay). Still, some useful considerations can also be derived for other fields such as social psychology, biology, or humanities. Rather than in-depth speculative discussions, the book covers mostly practical cases, however providing a preliminary theoretical justification for the solution methods. Covered topics include static games of complete information, zero-sum games and minimax problems, lotteries, sequential games, multistage games, Bayesian games. This may also encourage the reader to approach more advanced topics, with a solid methodological background and a full-rounded appreciation of the subject.

LEONARDO BADIA is Associate Professor at the University of Padova, Italy, where he teaches Telecommunications and Game theory. He got his academic education from the University of Ferrara, Italy, and he held previous positions and collaborations with IMT Lucca Institute for Advanced Studies, Italy, the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Sweden, the Centre Tecnològic Telecomunicacions Catalunya (CTTC) in Spain. He is actively interacting with many other academic institutions around the world. His research interests revolve around the applications of Mathematical models, especially Game theory, to Telecommunication networks, on which subject he has published more than 180 scientific papers. He is also a passionate teacher with a keen interest in creating funny yet educational exercises.

THOMAS MARCHIORO is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellow and PhD candidate at the University of Crete, Greece. He received both his Bachelor’s degree in Ingegneria dell’informazione and his Master’s degree in ICT for Internet and Multimedia from the University of Padova, Italy. His research interests include Information security, Privacy, Internet of Things, and of course Game Theory.
