Collaborative Rearch: Summer Program on Game Theory and Economics (June - July 2000, 2001, and 2002 Stony Brook, New York)

陶曼博弈理论在当代许多经济理论研究中发挥着重要作用，因此也是世界各地杰出研究中心组织活动中经常出现的主题。这笔赠款支持纽约州立大学石溪分校(USB)经济学博弈论中心2000-2002年的年度暑期项目。USB的夏季项目的独特之处在于它明确地专注于博弈论，无论是理论上的还是应用上的。每年夏天都会举行以研究为导向的会议和讲习班，并就一个具有重大意义的专题举办密集的教学课程，并辅之以一段时间的非正式研究活动。一个庞大的国际研究小组-由知名学者、初级教师和研究生组成-他们的兴趣代表了博弈论的各种理论和应用方面。2000-2002年的计划是1990年至1999年在石溪举办的一系列暑期活动的延续，每一次活动都吸引了150多人参加。正式活动通常包括为期五天的会议，包括全体会议和平行会议，以及受邀发表和提交的论文；为期两周的选定主题讲习班；以及往往为期一至两周的选定专题密集讲授。这种形式和方法的价值从以前课程的成功中得到了证明。虽然暑期课程的主要目标是刺激和传播理论和应用方面的新进展，但它也有助于让越来越多的经济学和其他学科的学者获得博弈论的概念和方法上的发展。同时，暑期项目为这些学者提供了一个向博弈论者展示他们的想法和关切的场所，使双方能够探索富有成效的新合作领域。这种互动是活动的一个组成部分，也是非常重要的一部分。

This grant supports the annual summer programs in 2000-2002 of the Center for Game Theory in Economics, at the State University of New York at Stony Brook (USB). The USB's summer program is unique in its explicit focus on game theory, both theoretical and applied. Each summer research-oriented conferences and workshops and an intensive course of instruction on a topic of major significance, complemented by a further period of informal research activities are made available. A large international group of researchers --- a mix of established scholars, junior faculty, and graduate students --- whose interests represent a diverse array of theoretical and applied aspects of game theory are brought together. The programs for 2000-2002 are a continuation of the series of summer activities held at Stony Brook from 1990 to 1999, each of which attracted more than 150 participants. Formal activities normally include a five-day conference with plenary and parallel sessions, and invited and contributed papers; two weeks of workshops on selected themes; and quite often one to two weeks of intensive instruction on selected topics. The value of this format and approach is evidenced by the success of the previous programs.While the summer program's primary objective is to stimulate and disseminate new advances in both theory and applications, it also serves to make conceptual and methodological developments in game theory available to an expanding group of scholars in economics and other disciplines. At the same time the summer program provides a venue for these scholars to present their ideas and concerns to game-theorists, enabling both to explore fruitful new areas of collaboration. This interaction is an integral, and very valued, part of the activities.
