چکیده

We present a class of games with a pure strategy being strictly dominated by another pure strategy such that the former survives along solutions of the Brown–von Neumann–Nash dynamics from an open set of initial conditions. JEL classification: C72

Brown-von Neumann-Nash dynamics: The continuous strategy case

Brown and von Neumann introduced a dynamical system that converges to saddle points of zero sum games with …nitely many strategies. Nash used the mapping underlying these dynamics to prove existence of equilibria in general games. The resulting Brown–von Neumann–Nash dynamics are a benchmark example for myopic adjustment dynamics that, in contrast to replicator dynamics, allow for innovation, b...

Sonderforschungsbereich 504 Brown-von Neumann-nash Dynamics: the Continuous Strategy Case

In John Nash’s proofs for the existence of (Nash) equilibria based on Brouwer’s theorem, an iteration mapping is used. A continuous— time analogue of the same mapping has been studied even earlier by Brown and von Neumann. This differential equation has recently been suggested as a plausible boundedly rational learning process in games. In the current paper we study this Brown—von Neumann—Nash ...

Evolutionary Voluntary Prisoner's Dilemma Game under Deterministic and Stochastic Dynamics

The voluntary prisoner’s dilemma (VPD) game has sparked interest from various fields since it was proposed as an effective mechanism to incentivize cooperative behavior. Current studies show that the inherent cyclic dominance of the strategies of the VPD game results in periodic oscillations in population. This paper investigated the influence of the level of individual rationality and the size...

Continuous and Global Stability in Innovative Evolutionary Dynamics

Innovation plays a central role in the development of modern economies, as does the regret of those who have missed the opportunity to try a successful new strategy. In contrast to purely biological environments, where new strategies emerge mainly by random mutation, human societies tend to exhibit more deliberate, although possibly imperfect inventions of new strategies. In this paper, we stud...

1 1 Fe b 20 09 Evolutionary dynamics may eliminate all strategies used in correlated equilibrium Yannick

We show on a 4 × 4 example that many dynamics may eliminate all strategies used in correlated equilibria, and this for an open set of games. This holds for the best-response dynamics, the Brown-von Neumann-Nash dynamics and any monotonic or weakly sign-preserving dynamics satisfying some standard regularity conditions. For the replicator dynamics and the best-response dynamics, elimination of a...
