Non-additive anonymous games

چکیده

This paper introduces a class of non-additive anonymous games where agents are assumed to be uncertain (in the sense of Knight) about opponents’ strategies and about the initial distribution over players’ characteristics in the game. We model uncertainty by non-additive measures or capacities and prove the Cournot-Nash equilibrium existence theorem for this class of games. Equilibrium distribution can be symmetrized under milder conditions than in the case of additive games. In particular, it is not required for the space characteristics to be atomless under capacities. The set-valued map of the Cournot-Nash equilibria is upper-semicontinuous as a function of initial beliefs of the players for non-additive anonymous games.

Individual and group stability in neutral restrictions of hedonic games

We consider a class of coalition formation games called hedonic games, i.e., games in which the utility of a player is completely determined by the coalition that the player belongs to. We first define the class of subset-additive hedonic games and show that they have the same representation power as the class of hedonic games. We then define a restriction of subset-additive hedonic games that ...

Perfect information stochastic games and related classes

For n-person perfect inlbrmation stochastic games and for n-person stochastic games with Additive Rcwards and Additive Transitions (ARAT) we show the existence of pure limiting average equilibria. Using a similar approach we also derive the existence of limiting average e-equilibria for two-person switching control stochastic games. The orderfield property holds for each of the classes mentione...

Hamilton’s Rule in Non-Additive Games

Recently a number of authors have questioned both the validity and utility of inclusive fitness. One particular claim is that Hamilton’s rule applies only to additive games. Additive games represent a vanishingly small subset of all games and do not capture a number of interesting qualitative behaviours which are present in non-additive games. Thus, if these criticisms were correct, inclusive f...

Bandits with Delayed, Aggregated Anonymous Feedback

We study a variant of the stochastic K-armed bandit problem, which we call “bandits with delayed, aggregated anonymous feedback”. In this problem, when the player pulls an arm, a reward is generated, however it is not immediately observed. Instead, at the end of each round the player observes only the sum of a number of previously generated rewards which happen to arrive in the given round. The...
