Economic Theory Research

Researchers in economic theory develop mathematical models to better explain and clarify the fundamental factors behind individual and group economic behaviors. They analyze how individuals make decisions in economic and political situations, and they look for ways to optimize and enhance game theory tools, strategic networks, matching models, and information aggregation either via markets or through voting.
