Competing for endogenous Information in an Irreversible Environmental Resource Problem: a Game-Theoretic Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract The paper analyzes strategic behavior in a two-stage environmental choice problem under di¤erent information scenarios. Given uncertainty about environmental cost and irreversibility of development, learning without destroyingemerges from strategic competition when information is endogenous and publicly available. This happens since agents trade o¤ the higher payo¤of being the rst-mover against the potentially free acquisition of endogenous information without developing their own environmental endowment. We prove that in a 2X2 dynamic environmental game with payo¤ uncertainty and irreversibility publicly available endogenous information could lead players to destroy less in aggregate terms with respect to the case in which information is exogenous.

In this paper, we study an outsourced supply chain consisting of one buyer and two suppliers in which the buyer outsources manufacturing of a physical product to two competing suppliers. The suppliers compete for the buyers' demands share, and the buyer allocates the demands to the competing suppliers based on three-dimensional allocation functions. We consider two certain types of allocation f...

متن کاملNGTSOM: A Novel Data Clustering Algorithm Based on Game Theoretic and Self- Organizing Map
Identifying clusters is an important aspect of data analysis. This paper proposes a noveldata clustering algorithm to increase the clustering accuracy. A novel game theoretic self-organizingmap (NGTSOM ) and neural gas (NG) are used in combination with Competitive Hebbian Learning(CHL) to improve the quality of the map and provide a better vector quantization (VQ) for clusteringdata. Different ...
