Finite Extensive Form Games

Hans Peters

Chapter 4 in Game Theory, 2015, pp 51-69 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Most games derived from economic or political situations have in common with most parlor games (like card games and board games) that they are not ‘one-shot’: players move sequentially, and one and the same player may move more often than once. Such games are best described by drawing a decision tree which tells us whose move it is and what a player’s information is when that player has to make a move.
