WHAT IS IT? Game Theory is a branch of mathematics that deals with the analysis and strategies behind competitive situations where the outcome of one participant s choice is dependent upon the actions of another participant.
WHAT IS IT USED FOR? Game Theory has a vast array of uses from simple games of tic-tac-toe and checkers all the way up to launching nuclear warheads. Other fields where Game Theory is commonly used: Economics/Finance Automotive Sports Management
