Abstract(s)
Industrial Organization is the field of economics that studies the behaviour of firms and the structure of markets
when markets fail to be perfectly competitive. Game Theory is a branch of mathematical analysis developed to study
decision making in conflict situations. Such a situation exists when two or more decision makers who have different
objectives act on the same system or share the same resources. Game theory has become the standard language of
Industrial Organization: the industrial organization theory Uterature is now presented almost exclusively in terms of
game theoretic models. Game Theory is a mathematical tool used to analyze the behaviour of firms and its impact on
market structure, pricing and profits.
The aim of the symposium on Industrial Organization and Game Theory, at the International Conference of
Numerical Analysis and Applied Mathematics 2009 (ICNAAM 2009), is to bring together researchers with different
backgrounds and interests in all aspects of Game Theory, its apphcations in Industrial Organization, and its practice,
in order to further communication, collaboration, and exchange of new ideas. The topics include, but are not limited
to the following: Game Theory and Management, dynamic games, stochastic games, network games, bargaining,
coahtion formation, cooperative games, differential games, learning, non-cooperative games, ohgopoly games, voting
and power indices; applications of games in fields such as strategic management, marketing, operations management,
public management, financial management, human resource, energy and resource management, and, in particular,
industrial organization that investigates the outcomes of market structures in environments with prices or quantity
competition, demand and costs uncertainty, product differentiation, R&D and innovation, international trade policies,
and others.
