Games, Strategy, and Politics
نویسنده
چکیده
The application of game theory—and an alternative strategic theory called “theory of moves”—and social-choice theory to a wide variety of strategic situations, principally but not exclusively in politics, will be studied. Uses of strategy in voting in committees and elections, in political campaigns, in the defense and deterrence policies of nations, and in bargaining and coalition-building situations will be among the topics discussed. Secrecy and deception as political strategies will also be analyzed.

Olympic Medals, Economy, Geography and Politics from Sydney to Rio
T he paper uses Heckman model to examine the statistical importance of over 140 independent variables on the Olympic performance of all countries participating in the Summer Olympic Games from Sydney 2000 to Rio 2016. We find that countries which export more products have a higher likelihood of winning an Olympic medal than their counterparts exporting fewer products, and explain why...
متن کاملRobust Opponent Modeling in Real-Time Strategy Games using Bayesian Networks
Opponent modeling is a key challenge in Real-Time Strategy (RTS) games as the environment is adversarial in these games, and the player cannot predict the future actions of her opponent. Additionally, the environment is partially observable due to the fog of war. In this paper, we propose an opponent model which is robust to the observation noise existing due to the fog of war. In order to cope...
متن کاملNash 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...
متن کاملBounds for Mixed Strategy Equilibria and the Spatial Model of Elections
We prove that the support of mixed strategy equilibria of two-player, symmetric, zero-sum games lies in the uncovered set, a concept originating in the theory of tournaments and the spatial theory of politics. We allow for uncountably in...nite strategy spaces, and, as a special case, we obtain a longstanding claim to the same e¤ect, due to McKelvey (1986), in the political science literature. ...
متن کاملA satisfactory strategy of multiobjective two person matrix games with fuzzy payoffs
The multiobjective two person matrix game problem with fuzzy payoffs is considered in this paper. It is assumed that fuzzy payoffs are triangular fuzzy numbers. The problem is converted to several multiobjective matrix game problems with interval payoffs by using the $alpha$-cuts of fuzzy payoffs. By solving these problems some $alpha$-Pareto optimal strategies with some interval outcomes are o...
