چکیده

This paper studies the economic implications of ambiguous correlation in a non-zero-sum game between two insurers. We establish the general framework of Nash equilibrium for the coupled optimization problems. For the constant absolute risk aversion (CARA) insurers, we show that the equilibrium reinsurance strategies admit closed-form solutions. Our results indicate that the ambiguous correlation leads to an increase in the equilibrium demand of reinsurance protection for both insurers. Numerical studies examine the effect on the quality of the correlation estimations.

A TRANSITION FROM TWO-PERSON ZERO-SUM GAMES TO COOPERATIVE GAMES WITH FUZZY PAYOFFS

In this paper, we deal with games with fuzzy payoffs. We proved that players who are playing a zero-sum game with fuzzy payoffs against Nature are able to increase their joint payoff, and hence their individual payoffs by cooperating. It is shown that, a cooperative game with the fuzzy characteristic function can be constructed via the optimal game values of the zero-sum games with fuzzy payoff...

Seminar 15061 Non - Zero - Sum - Games and Control

In this report, the program, research issues, and results of Dagstuhl Seminar 15061 “Non-ZeroSum-Games and Control” are described. The area of non-zero-sum games is addressed in a wide range of topics: multi-player games, partial-observation games, quantitative game models, and – as a special focus – connections with control engineering (supervisory control). Seminar February 1–6, 2015 – http:/...

Bimatrix Games

These are two person non-zero(constant)-sum games in which each player has finitely many pure strategies. We call these non-zero(constant)sum games because the interests of the players is not required to be exactly opposed to each other. Of course, these include zero(constant)-sum games and are a true generalization of zero(constant)-sum games. But the methods used to analyze them are different...

Strategic Decompositions of Normal Form Games: Zero-sum Games and Potential Games

We study new classes of games, called zero-sum equivalent games and zero-sum equivalent potential games, and prove decomposition theorems involving these classes of games. We say that two games are “strategically equivalent” if, for every player, the payoff differences between two strategies (holding other players’ strategies fixed) are identical. A zero-sum equivalent game is a game that is st...

Leaf-Value Tables for Pruning Non-Zero-Sum Games

Algorithms for pruning game trees generally rely on a game being zero-sum, in the case of alpha-beta pruning, or constant-sum, in the case of multi-player pruning algorithms such as speculative pruning. While existing algorithms can prune non-zero-sum games, pruning is much less effective than in constant-sum games. We introduce the idea of leaf-value tables, which store an enumeration of the p...
