Correlated equilibrium existence for infinite games with type-dependent strategies

نویسنده

  • Maxwell B. Stinchcombe
چکیده

Under study are games in which players receive private signals and then simultaneously choose actions from compact sets. Payoffs are measurable in signals and jointly continuous in actions. This paper gives a counter-example to the main step in Cotter’s [K. Cotter, Correlated equilibrium in games with typedependent strategies, J. Econ. Theory 54 (1991) 48–69] argument for correlated equilibrium existence for this class of games, and supplies an alternative proof. © 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Nash Equilibrium Strategy for Bi-matrix Games with L-R Fuzzy Payoffs

In this paper, bi-matrix games are investigated based on L-R fuzzy variables. Also, based on the fuzzy max order several models in non-symmetrical L-R fuzzy environment is constructed and the existence condition of Nash equilibrium strategies of the fuzzy bi-matrix games is proposed. At last, based on the Nash equilibrium of crisp parametric bi-matrix games, we obtain the Pareto and weak Pareto...

Nonzero-sum Risk-sensitive Stochastic Games on a Countable State Space

The infinite horizon risk-sensitive discounted-cost and ergodic-cost nonzero-sum stochastic games for controlled Markov chains with countably many states are analyzed. For the discounted-cost game, we prove the existence of Nash equilibrium strategies in the class of Markov strategies under fairly general conditions. Under an additional geometric ergodicity condition and a small cost criterion,...

Federal Reserve Bank of

This paper develops recursive methods for considering stationary sequential equilibria in games with private actions and signals (private monitoring games), where play is assumed not only to continue forever into the future, but is also assumed to have occurred forever into the past. In particular, we develop set-based methods for constructing all pure strategy equilibria of the subclass of str...

Balance and discontinuities in infinite games with type-dependent strategies

Under study are games in which players receive private signals and then simultaneously choose actions from compact sets. Payoffs are measurable in signals and jointly continuous in actions. Stinchcombe (2011) [19] proves the existence of correlated equilibria for this class of games. This paper is a study of the information structures for these games, the discontinuous expected utility function...

Determinacy in Stochastic Games with Unbounded Payoff Functions

We consider infinite-state turn-based stochastic games of two players, and ^, who aim at maximizing and minimizing the expected total reward accumulated along a run, respectively. Since the total accumulated reward is unbounded, the determinacy of such games cannot be deduced directly from Martin’s determinacy result for Blackwell games. Nevertheless, we show that these games are determined bot...
