The game of Dots-and-Boxes, the popular game in which two players take turns connecting an array of dots to form squares, or boxes has long been considered merely a child's game.
The scientific monograph of a survey kind presented to the reader's attention deals with fundamental ideas and basic schemes of optimization methods that can be effectively used for solving strategic planning and operations manage- ment problems related, in particular, to transportation.
When elementary courses in discrete and combinatorial mathematics first became popular, they usually covered a broad spectrumofpure and applied topics.
In complementarity theory, which is a relatively new domain of applied mathematics, several kinds of mathematical models and problems related to the study of equilibrium are considered from the point of view of physics as well as economics.
The central question I pose in this book is: If there existed a supe- rior being who possessed the supernatural qualities of omni- science, omnipotence, immortality, and incomprehensibility, how would he/she act differently from us, and would these differences be knowable?
Despite the proliferation of video games in the twenty-first century, the theory of game design is largely underdeveloped, leaving designers on their own to understand what games really are.
This book demonstrates what the discipline of economics has to offer as support for analyzing cooperation on management of trans-boundary water resources.
Game Theory And Decision Theory In Agent-Based Systems is a collection of papers from international leading researchers, that offers a broad view of the many ways game theory and decision theory can be applied in agent-based systems, from standard applications of the core elements of the theory to more cutting edge developments.
The developments within the computationally and numerically oriented ar- eas of Operations Research, Finance, Statistics and Economics have been sig- nificant over the past few decades.
Economists can use computer algebra systems to manipulate symbolic models, derive numerical computations, and analyze empirical relationships among variables.
Game theory has been applied to a growing list of practical problems, from antitrust analysis to monetary policy; from the design of auction institutions to the structuring of incentives within firms; from patent races to dispute resolution.
Despite significant achievements, thediscipline of supply chain management is still unable to satisfactorily handlemany practical real-world challenges.
Inverse limits with set-valued functions are quickly becoming a popular topic of research due to their potential applications in dynamical systems and economics.
