ECON 201C - Microeconomic Theory: Game Theory with Asymmetric Information and Applications

Spring 2026, Simon Board

This is the third course in the PhD microeconomics sequence at UCLA. The topics covered are moral hazard, dynamic contracts, asymmetric information, and market design. We follow loosely Mas-Colell, Whinston, and Green. Please let me know at kennyguo@ucla.edu if you spot any errors. Thanks!

Problem Set Solutions:

• Problem Set 1 (moral hazard, contracts)
• Problem Set 2 (dynamic contracts, asymmetric information)
• Problem Set 3 (asymmetric information with auctions, public goods, and adverse selection)
