- W62486301 abstract "Research topics in game theory will cover the study of dynamic games, games of incomplete information, and evolutionary games, with applications in the fields of voting, bargaining, lobbying and violent conflict. Results from the study of social choice theory and mechanism design will also be treated. The course will concentrate on mathematical techniques for constructing and solving games. Students will be required to develop a topic relating political science and game theory and to write a formal research paper. Prerequisite: W4209 or instructor's permission. Course Overview Political Science W4210 is a continuation of W4209. It aims to teach the skills you need to start producing your own formal models for research in political science. • In the first section of the course we introduce the tools you need to construct a formal model and prove results. We consider the choices that modelers need to make and the set of options that they have and we review approaches to constructing models and proving results. • In the final section the course will take on more of a seminar format, engaging in close reading of models that use the techniques we have seen to study political problems. Requirements The readings are typically light in terms of page numbers but are compact and heavy in notation. As one of the aims of the course is to develop skills not just in reading but in developing models, you will be expected to work through the proofs of all propositions and theorems covered in the course. Notes on close readings of these texts follow below. In addition: 1. You will be required to write an original paper presenting a model or theorem. This paper is your key output from this course, ideally it should contribute directly to the writing of your dissertation. The paper should motivate a problem, develop a model and prove ensuing propositions, and identify testable predictions resulting from the model. This research paper will account for 55% of the final grade. You may be asked to present parts of your model in class for discussion by the group. The paper is due on 14 December. 2. There will be problem sets and exercises to complete throughout the first part of the course; these are intended to evaluate your understanding of the material and to allow for deeper exploration of models studied, and, especially, to practice model construction and proof writing. These account for 15% of the course grade and typically have to be handed in the week after they are assigned. Late problem sets will not be accepted. 3. In one of the weeks of the second section of the course you will be required to review one of the central models / theorems studied in the course. For this presentation you will be" @default.
