For students who are interested in writing their thesis under my supervision. Topics for thesis research include (but are not limited to):
- Infinite games in extensive form with some structure on the payoffs
- Repeated and Stochastic games with a ‘twist’, i.e. some kind of restriction on the payoffs, actions or transition probabilities,/\i>
- Developing techniques/ algorithms to find stationary or subgame perfect equilibria in stochastic games
- Algorithms to find optimal strategies in smaller versions of actual games. (Example: Recently a student used Fictitious Play to solve a simplified version of poker)
- Nash-solvability of so-called ‘Chess-like Games’
- Statistical research to find who is the best of all time in certain sports (for which a large amount of data is available, e.g. tennis)
