Parabolic Cylinders and Folk Theorems [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2015
We study a class of games featuring payoff functions being parabolic cylinders where best reply functions are orthogonal and therefore the pure-strategy non-cooperative solution is attained as a Nash equilibrium in dominant strategies. We prove that the resulting threshold of the discount factor above which implicit collusion on the Pareto frontier is ...

The Folk Theorems in the Framework of Evolution and Cooperation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Proceeding from the latest versions of the Folk theorems, this chapter shows that “natural” evolution of behavior in repeated games in human populations is a very unstable process which may be easily manipulated by outside forces. Any feasible and individually rational payoff of the game may be converted into a globally stable outcome by an arbitrary ...

Folk Theorems, Second Version [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
Much of the repeated game literature is concerned with proving Folk Theorems. The logic of the exercise is to specify a particular game, and to explore for that game specification whether any given feasible (and individually rational) value vector can be an equilibrium outcome for some strategies when agents are sufficiently patient.

Some remarks on the folk theorem in game theory [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Social Sciences, 1982
Abstract It is argued that although the pathological multiplicity of Nash equilibria of super games stated by the folk theorem can be removed by introducing limited observations into super games with a continuum of players, the consideration of super games in terms of the Nash equilibrium concept involves a more fundamental and conceptual difficulty.

The blockchain folk theorem

open access: yes, 2017
Blockchains are distributed ledgers, operated within peer-to-peer networks. If reliable and stable, they could offer a new, cost effective way to record transactions, but are they? We model the proof-of-work blockchain protocol as a stochastic game and analyse the equilibrium strategies of rational, strategic miners.
