Absorbing Team Games

نویسنده

چکیده

A team is a group of people having the same motives but possibly different available actions. A team game is a game where two teams face each other. An absorbing game is a repeated game where some of the entries are absorbing, in the sense that once they are chosen the play terminates, and all future payoffs are equal to the payoff at the stage of termination. We prove that every absorbing team game has an equilibrium payoff and that there are -equilibrium profiles with cyclic structure.

An Experimental Study of Incentive Reversal in Sequential and Simultaneous Games

I t is commonly held that increasing monetary rewards enhance work effort. This study, however, argues that this will not ineludibly occur in team activities. Incentive Reversal may occur in sequential team productions featuring positive external impacts on agents. This seemingly paradoxical event is explained through two experiments in this article. The first experiment involves a sample ...

Recursive Repeated Games with Absorbing States

We show the existence of stationary limiting average "-equilibria (" > 0) for two-person recursive repeated games with absorbing states. These are stochastic games where all states but one are absorbing, and in the non-absorbing state all payoos are equal to zero. A state is called absorbing, if the probability of a transition to any other state is zero for all available pairs of actions. For t...

Explicit formulas for repeated games with absorbing states

Explicit formulas for the asymptotic value limλ→0 v(λ) and the asymptotic minmax limλ→0 w(λ) of finite λ-discounted absorbing games are provided. New simple proofs for the existence of the limits as λ goes zero are given. Similar characterizations for stationary Nash equilibrium payoffs are obtained. The results may be extended to absorbing games with compact action sets and jointly continuous ...

Perfect foresight dynamics in binary supermodular games∗

This paper studies equilibrium selection in binary supermodular games based on perfect foresight dynamics. We provide complete characterizations of absorbing and globally accessible equilibria and apply them to two subclasses of games. First, for unanimity games, it is shown that our selection criterion is not in agreement with that in terms of Nash products, and an example is presented in whic...
