COOPERATIVE AND NONCOOPERATIVE SOLUTIONS, AND THE “GAME WITHIN A GAME" By

چکیده
In a previous essay, we developed a simple (in)efficiency measure for matrix games. We now address the difficulties encountered in assessing the usefulness and accuracy of such a measure. JEL Classifications: C63, C72, D61

Two Game Models for Cooperation with Implicit Noncooperation1
We propose two flexible game models to represent and analyze cases that cannot be modeled by current game models. One is called sharing creditability game (SCG) and the other is called bottomline game (BLG). The new models transform cooperative games into new games that incorporate auxiliary information (noncooperative in nature) usually neglected in previous theories. The new games will be sol...
متن کاملBifurcation Analysis of a Noncooperative Differential Game with One Weak Player
We study a bifurcation problem for a system of two differential equations in implicit form. For each value of the parameter θ, the solution yields a pair of Nash equilibrium strategies in feedback form, for a non-cooperative differential game. When θ = 0, the second player has no power to influence the dynamics of the system, and his optimal strategy is myopic. The game thus reduces to an optim...
متن کاملCooperative Institutions for Sustainable Management of Common Pool Resources
Beneficiaries of common pool resources (CPRs) may select available noncooperative and regulatory exogenous institutions for managing the resource, as well as cooperative management institutions. All these institutions may increase the longterm gains, prolong the life of the resource, and help to escape the tragedy of the commons’ trap. Cooperative game theory approaches can serve as the backbon...
متن کاملClimate Change and Game Theory: a Mathematical Survey
This paper examines the problem of achieving global cooperation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Contributions to this problem are reviewed from noncooperative game theory, cooperative game theory, and implementation theory. We examine the solutions to games where players have a continuous choice about how much to pollute, and games where players make decisions about treaty participation. Th...
متن کاملJoint Random Access and Power Control Game in Ad Hoc Networks with Noncooperative Users
We consider a distributed joint random access and power control scheme for interference management in wireless ad hoc networks. To derive decentralized solutions that do not require any cooperation among the users, we formulate this problem as non-cooperative joint random access and power control game, in which each user minimizes its average transmission cost with a given rate constraint. Usin...
