This book presents a model of computing and a measure of computational complexity which are intended to facilitate analysis of computations performed by people, machines, or a mixed system of people and machines. The model is designed to apply directly to models of economic theory, which typically involve continuous variables and smooth functions, without requiring analysis of approximations. The model permits analysis of the feasibility and complexity of the calculations required of economic agents in order for them to arrive at their decisions. The treatment contains applications of the model to game theory and economics, including comparison of the complexities of different solution concepts in certain bargaining games, and the trade-off between communication and computation in an example of an Edgeworth Box economy.

Book Description

This accessible volume arises from a series of intensive mathematics workshops where prominent set theorists give one-day lectures that focus on important new directions, methods, tools and results. A wide range of researchers and graduate students will benefit from the material within, which is aimed at non-experts.
