Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Game theory is a branch of mathematics dedicated to designing models that make predictions under the assumption that the interacting (or negotiating) agents are rational. It can be applied to a wide range of research fields, including computer science and the social sciences. Game theory has been used in business, financial decision-making, presidential elections, jury deliberations, and biology. Its origin stems from the need to make logical decisions in situations of conflict and negotiation where multiple choices emerge. Within game theory, the information available for each player is crucial for informed decision-making.
The purpose of this Special Issue, “Game and Decision Theory Applied to Business, Economy and Finance, 2nd Edition” is to present contributions that apply game theory to industry, business, economics, and finance. Alternative submissions focusing on other related areas may also be considered. Models based on decision trees, machine learning and other analytical approaches are likewise welcome.
