Two important metrics for measuring the quality of routing paths are the maximum edge con-gestion C and maximum path length D. Here, we study bicriteria in routing games where eachplayer i selfishly selects a path that simultaneously minimizes its maximum edge congestion Ciand path length Di. We study the stability and price of anarchy of two bicriteria games:• Max games, where ...

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...
