Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this project has been to develop a theoretical framework which connects deterministic macroeconomic dynamics with a continuum of players with finite-player stochastic games, thereby establishing approximation results as the number of players tends to infinity, and to enhance our understanding on equilibrium selection results based on societal games and mathematically related theories. I obtained new results and insights on stochastic approximation of asynchronous-move noisy stochastic games, contagion of behavior in general supermodular network games, equilibrium selection based on a new class of deterministic evolutionary dynamics, and the impact of small probability events on higher order beliefs. These have been published or reported in international refereed journals and conferences.
