Conference theme

Strategic Behavior in Professional Individual and Team Sports

Utility-maximizing individuals usually behave strategical-ly to realize their goals. Individuals occasionally violate the rules of “fair play” if this increases their probability to win a particular contest and teams sometimes lose matches deliberately if this promises to be advanta-geous. The goal of the conference is to document this kind of behavior in different contexts and to develop recommendations to avoid it in an attempt to safeguard the integrity of the respective sport.
