Contents:

Ch. 1. Introduction Ch. 2. Lattices, Supermodular Functions, and Related Topics Ch. 3. Optimal Decision Models Ch. 4. Noncooperative Games Ch. 5. Cooperative Games.

Summary: The economics literature is replete with examples of monotone comparative statics; that is, scenarios where optimal decisions or equilibria in a parameterized collection of models vary monotonically with the parameter. Most of these examples are manifestations of complementarity, with a common explicit or implicit theoretical basis in properties of a super-modular function on a lattice. Supermodular functions yield a characterization for complementarity and extend the notion of complementarity to a general setting that is a natural mathematical context for studying complementarity and monotone.
