About our work 

Members of the group work with economic theory, both applied and pure. Our interests cover a wide range of fields including:

  • Bounded rationality
  • Contests
  • Economic dynamics
  • Economic growth
  • Environmental economics
  • General equilibrium
  • Imperfect competition
  • International trade
  • Networks
  • Public economics
  • Mathematical game theory
  • Fixed point theory
  • Repeated games

What we have in common beyond our interest in economics is that we develop formal theory to shed light on our research areas.

Our activities 

The group organises seminars and workshops. Meetings focus on ideas for new research and working towards grant applications.

See events from the cluster and across the school.
