Synopsis:

The book "Game Theory and the Pursuit of Algorithmic Fairness" is a comprehensive resource that delves into the intersection of game theory and algorithmic fairness, starting with the fundamentals and providing case studies for real-world application. It explores how game theory can be applied in various computational contexts such as networking, optimization, and online markets, building a theoretical framework to examine fairness criteria within game theory. A significant focus is on mapping game theory equilibria to fairness metrics, offering a nuanced methodology for evaluating algorithmic fairness. The book also critically assesses the limitations of existing fairness metrics and posits that game theory may offer supplemental or improved measures. The latter sections tackle ethical and practical challenges, including fair resource allocation, network neutrality, and the development of fair machine learning algorithms. It not only dissects current criticisms of game theory and algorithmic fairness but also suggests paths for future research. Serving as both an instructional guide and a call to action, the book is aimed at academics, policymakers, and industry practitioners invested in creating more equitable systems. The work closes by urging further exploration and research at the critical interface between game theory and algorithmic fairness.
