Introduction to the special issue

摘要

This special issue of the International Journal of Game Theory contains a selection of papers presented at the 9th Conference on Logic and the Foundations of the Theory of Games and Decisions (LOFT9), which took place in Toulouse July 5-7, 2010. While this special issue collects papers with a stronger game-theoretic content, a second set of papers that are more logic-oriented can be found in a special issue of the Journal of Applied Non-Classical Logics. The LOFT conferences, which have been a regular biannual event since 1994, are interdisciplinary events that bring together researchers from a variety of fields: cognitive psychology, computer science and artificial intelli- gence, economics, game theory, linguistics, logic, mind sciences, philosophy, social choice and statistics.
