A probabilistic-numerical approximation for an obstacle problem arising in game theory

چکیده
In 1967 Aumann and Maschler presented their celebrated model for games with incomplete information, see [1] and references therein. The game they consider consists in a set of, say I, standard discrete time two person zero-sum games. At the beginning one of these zero-sum games is picked at random according to a probability p. The information which game was picked is transmitted to Player 1 only, while Player 2 just knows p. It is assumed that both players observe the actions of the other one, so Player 2 might infer from the actions of his opponent which game is actually played. It turns out that it is optimal for the informed player to play with an additional randomness. Namely in a such a way, that he optimally manipulates the beliefs of the uninformed player.

Approximation Methods for Solving the Equitable Location Problem with Probabilistic Customer Behavior
Location-allocation of facilities in service systems is an essential factor of their performance. One of the considerable situations which less addressed in the relevant literature is to balance service among customers in addition to minimize location-allocation costs. This is an important issue, especially in the public sector. Reviewing the recent researches in this field shows that most of t...
متن کاملCooperative aggregate production planning: a game theory approach
Production costs in general, and workforce and inventory costs in particular, constitute a large fraction of the operating costs of many manufacturing plants. We introduce cooperative aggregate production planning as a way to decrease these costs. That is, when production planning of two or more facilities (plants) is integrated, they can interchange workforce and products inventory; thus, thei...
متن کاملCooperative network flow problem with pricing decisions and allocation of benefits: A game theory approach
Several real problems in telecommunication, transportation, and distribution industries can be well analyzed by network flow models. In revenue management, pricing plays a primary role which increases the profit generated from a limited supply of assets. Pricing decision directly affects the amount of service or product demand. Hence, in traditional maximum flow problem, we assume that the dema...
متن کاملCooperative vehicle routing problem: an opportunity for cost saving
In this paper, a novel methodology is proposed to solve a cooperative multi-depot vehicle routing problem. We establish a mathematical model for multi-owner VRP in which each owner (i.e. player) manages single or multiple depots. The basic idea consists of offering an option that owners cooperatively manage the VRP to save their costs. We present cooperative game theory techniques for cost savi...
متن کاملObtaining a possible allocation in the bankruptcy model using the Shapley value
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an effective tool for supporting decision-makers to assess bankruptcy, uncertainty concepts including intervals, and game theory. The bankruptcy problem with the qualitative parameters is an economic problem under uncertainty. Accordingly, we combine the concepts of the DEA game theory and uncertain models as interval linear programming (ILP), which can be app...
