Symmetric games with only asymmetric equilibria
It is known that not every symmetric game has a symmetric equilibrium because there are examples of symmetric games that fail to have any equilibria at all. But this leads to the following question: If a symmetric game has a Nash equilibrium, does it have a symmetric Nash equilibrium? In this note, we show that the answer to this question is no by providing two examples of symmetric games that ...
متن کاملFourier decomposition of payoff matrix for symmetric three-strategy games.
In spatial evolutionary games the payoff matrices are used to describe pair interactions among neighboring players located on a lattice. Now we introduce a way how the payoff matrices can be built up as a sum of payoff components reflecting basic symmetries. For the two-strategy games this decomposition reproduces interactions characteristic to the Ising model. For the three-strategy symmetric ...
متن کاملMultiagent reinforcement learning in Markov games : asymmetric and symmetric approaches
Modern computing systems are distributed, large and heterogeneous. Computers, other devices and humans are very tightly connected with each other and therefore it would be more preferable to handle these entities more as agents as stand-alone systems. One goal of the artificial intelligence is to understand interactions between entities, whether they are artificial or natural, and how to make g...
متن کاملAsymmetric Equilibria in Symmetric Games with Many Players
It is often the case in symmetric games in normal form (i.e., games with a symmetric payoff matrix), that the only existing pure-strategy equilibria are asymmetric. Examples of this are models of entry into an industry [cf., Dixit and Shapiro (1986)], models of price-dispersion [cf. Salop and Stiglitz (1976)], and models of information about prices [cf. Grossman and Stiglitz (1976)]. If there i...
متن کاملSymmetric Stability in Symmetric Games
The idea of symmetric stability of symmetric equilibria is introduced which is relevant, e.g., for the comparative-statics of symmetric equilibria with symmetric shocks. I show that symmetric stability can be expressed in a two-player reduced-form version of the N-player game, derive an elementary relation between symmetric stability and the existence of exactly one symmetric equilibrium, and a...
