The Dynamics of the Nash Map for 2 by 2 Games
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the dynamics of a better response map from the space of mixed strategy profiles to itself, used by Nash to prove the existence of equilibrium points for finite games. We do it for the case of 2 players and 2 pure strategies. The maps are classified, according to the dynamics, as dominant strategy, elliptic or hyperbolic.

Hyperbolic Dynamics in Nash Maps
We investigate the dynamics of the Nash better response map for a family of games with two players and two strategies. This family contains the games of Coordination, Stag Hunt and Chicken. Each map is a piecewise rational map of the unit square to itself. We describe completely the dynamics for all maps from the family. All trajectories converge to fixed points or period 2 orbits. We create to...
متن کاملPricing and Advertising Decisions in a Three-level Supply Chain with Nash, Stackelberg and Cooperative Games
Pricing and advertising are two important marketing strategies in the supply chain management which lead to customer demand’s increase and therefore higher profit for members of supply chains. This paper considers advertising, and pricing decisions simultaneously for a three-level supply chain with one supplier, one manufacturer and one retailer. The amount of market demand is influenced ...
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 کاملImproved Profitability and Competition in Two Level Supply Chain by Non-Cooperative Games
This article by modeling a non-cooperative dynamic game tries to improve profitability and competition. This paper has considered how the manufacturer interacts with multiple competitor distributors. Each distributor also determines the optimal distribution price and inventory replenishment policies to maximize their profits. The issue form a non-cooperative dynamic game. Distributors formulate...
متن کاملBetter-reply dynamics and global convergence to Nash equilibrium in aggregative games
We consider n-person games with quasi-concave payoffs that depend on a player’s own action and the sum of all players’ actions. We show that a discrete-time, stochastic process in which players move towards better replies—the better-reply dynamics—converges globally to a Nash equilibrium if actions are either strategic substitutes or strategic complements for all players around each Nash equili...
