Strategic and extensive games

چکیده
2.1 Definition The basic model of decision-making by a single agent consists of a set of possible actions and a preference relation over this set. The simplest theory of the agent’s behavior is that she chooses a member of the set that is best according to the preference relation. The model of a strategic game extends this model to many agents, who are referred to as players. Each player has a set of possible actions and a preference relation over action profiles (lists of actions, one for each player).

Dynamic system of strategic games
Maybe an event can't be modeled completely through one game but there is more chance with several games. With emphasis on players' rationality, we present new properties of strategic games, which result in production of other games. Here, a new attitude to modeling will be presented in game theory as dynamic system of strategic games and its some applications such as analysis of the clash betwe...
متن کاملA review on symmetric games: theory, comparison and applications
Game theory models decision makers' behaviors in strategic situations. Since the structures of games are different, behavior and preferences of the players are different in various types of game. This paper reviews various situations of games. Here, characteristics of some common games are discussed and compared. Specifically, we focus on a group of games called symmetric games including Prison...
متن کاملGame Theory Basics I : Strategic Form Games 1 1 Preliminary
Game theory is a mathematical framework for analyzing conflict and cooperation. Early work was motivated by gambling and recreational games such as chess, hence the “game” in game theory. But it quickly became clear that the framework had much broader application. Today, game theory is used for mathematical modeling in a wide range of disciplines, including many of the social sciences, computer...
متن کاملEvidence on the equivalence of the strategic and extensive form representation of games
This paper reports an experiment testing whether strategically equivalent representations of a social situation produce equivalent behavior when actually played by human subjects. The investigation was limited to representative members of the class of generic 2×2 extensive form games of perfect information, which include widely studied games in the experimental literature, and the resulting cla...
متن کاملStructured models for multi-agent interactions*
The traditional representations of games using the extensive form or the strategic (normal) form obscure much of the structure that is present in real-world games. In this paper, we propose a new representation language for general multi-player noncooperative games multi-agent influence diagrams (MAIDs). This representation extends graphical models for probability distributions to a multi-agent...
متن کاملIndividual Memory in Extensive
John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern formulated extensive games in their book: "Theory of Games and Economic Behavior" (1944). A few years later, Kuhn (1953) gave a simpler description of an extensive game, which we will follow here. The description has proved very beneficial for analysing strategic situations with several players. It is general enough to incorporate differences in: the infor...
