Game theory has come to play an increasingly important role in logic and in computer science. Several logical theories have a basis in game semantics. In addition, computer scientists have used games to model interactive computations. Also, game theory provides a theoretical basis to the field of multi-agent systems. [123]
Mustafa Tamer Başar [1] (born January 19, 1946 [7]) is a control and game theorist who is the Swanlund Endowed Chair [8] and Center for Advanced Study [9] [10] Professor [11] of Electrical and Computer Engineering [12] at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA. He is also the Director of the Center for Advanced Study (since 2014).
In game theory, a Bayesian game is a strategic decision-making model which assumes players have incomplete information. Players may hold private information relevant to the game, meaning that the payoffs are not common knowledge. [1] Bayesian games model the outcome of player interactions using aspects of Bayesian probability.

The first volume introduces combinatorial game theory and its foundation in the surreal numbers; partizan and impartial games; Sprague–Grundy theory and misère games. The second volume applies the theorems of the first volume to many games, including nim, sprouts, dots and boxes, Sylver coinage, philosopher's phutball, fox and geese.
The game-tree complexity of a game is the number of leaf nodes in the smallest full-width decision tree that establishes the value of the initial position. [1] A full-width tree includes all nodes at each depth. This is an estimate of the number of positions one would have to evaluate in a minimax search to determine the value of the initial ...
Consider a transferable utility cooperative game (,) where denotes the set of players and is the characteristic function.An imputation is dominated by another imputation if there exists a coalition , such that each player in weakly-prefers (for all ) and there exists that strictly-prefers (<), and can enforce by threatening to leave the grand coalition to form (()).
Equilibrium selection is a concept from game theory which seeks to address reasons for players of a game to select a certain equilibrium over another. The concept is especially relevant in evolutionary game theory, where the different methods of equilibrium selection respond to different ideas of what equilibria will be stable and persistent for one player to play even in the face of ...
