He is the co-author of Dynamic Models of Oligopoly (with Jean Tirole), Game Theory (with Jean Tirole) and The Theory of Learning in Games (with David K. Levine). In addition to the work collected here, Fudenberg helped pioneer the use of modern game theoretic analysis in industrial organization, and the study of non-equilibrium learning. His current research interests include bounded rationality, contract theory, evolutionary game theory, non-equilibrium learning, and repeated games.

He is the author of (list books here). Prof. Levine's ongoing research in general equilibrium theory focuses on growth theory, innovation, and intellectual property. His other main area of research interest is dynamic games. Currently, Prof. Levine is studying the endogenous formation of preferences and social norms. He was among the first to use quantitative theory to study experimental data, using a model of signalling of intentions to explain altruism and spite in games such as ultimatum bargaining and centipede.
