Values for rooted-tree and sink-tree digraphs games and sharing a river [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We introduce values for rooted-tree and sink-tree digraph games axiomatically and provide their explicit formula representation. These values may be considered as natural extensions of the lower equivalent and upper equivalent solutions for line-graph ...

Risk Dominance Selects the Leader: An Experimental Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We perform an experimental analysis to test whether the risk dominance prediction is supported by the behavior of laboratory agents, in a 2X 2 coordination game whose equilibria are not Pareto ranked.

The eyes of the beholder: Perceived barriers to successful drug repurposing

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 2, Page 219-233, January 2026.
Despite tremendous advances in new drug development over recent decades, the medical needs of an ever increasing and ageing global population are still significantly unmet. Drug repurposing (DR)—finding new therapeutic uses for existing medicinal substances and products—offers a promising strategy by potentially reducing development time, costs and ...

Bayesian games with nested information

open access: yesTheoretical Economics, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 204-240, January 2026.
A Bayesian game is said to have nested information if the players are ordered and each player knows the types of all players that follow her in that order. We prove that all multiplayer Bayesian games with finite action spaces, bounded payoffs, Polish type spaces, and nested information admit a Bayesian equilibrium.

An Axiomatization of Harsanyi's Nontransferable Utility Solution [PDF]

open access: yesEconometrica, 1985
A set of axioms is proposed, which uniquely characterize the Harsanyi solution [see \textit{J. C. Harsanyi}, Int. Econ. Rev. 4, 194-220 (1963; Zbl 0118.151)] for nontransferable utility (NTU) games. These axioms appear formally identical to those of Aumann for the Shapley (''\(\lambda\)- transfer'') NTU value; the difference lies in the range of the ...

Catch Laffer If You Can: Tax Take in an Evasion‐Detection Game

open access: yesJournal of Public Economic Theory, Volume 27, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT In a simple taxation framework, we analyze a taxpayer's decision of whether to report income truthfully or engage in an evasion game with the tax agency. Specifically, taxpayer and tax agency can expend efforts, respectively, to conceal income and detect evasion. These activities are costly, and the final outcome—whether evasion is detected or

Utilitarianism with and without expected utility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We give two social aggregation theorems under conditions of risk, one for constant population cases, the other an extension to variable populations. Intra and interpersonal welfare comparisons are encoded in a single ‘individual preorder’.

Generalized Utilitarianism and Harsanyi's Partial Observer Theorem [PDF]

open access: yesEconometrica, 2010
Harsanyi's impartial observer must consider two types of lotteries: imaginary identity lotteries (“accidents of birth”) that she faces as herself and the real outcome lotteries (“life chances”) to be faced by the individuals she imagines becoming. If we maintain a distinction between identity and outcome lotteries, then Harsanyi-like axioms yield ...

Expected value, to a point: Moral decision‐making under background uncertainty

open access: yesNoûs, Volume 59, Issue 4, Page 1093-1125, December 2025.
Abstract Expected value maximization gives plausible guidance for moral decision‐making under uncertainty in many situations. But it has unappetizing implications in ‘Pascalian’ situations involving tiny probabilities of extreme outcomes. This paper shows, first, that under realistic levels of ‘background uncertainty’ about sources of value independent

Multi-Lateral Participants Decision-Making: A Distribution System Planning Approach With Incomplete Information Game

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Competition on distributed generation (DG) investments among multiple stakeholders in a distribution system results in incompleteness of market information, in which each stakeholder does not have full knowledge on investment and operation decisions of ...
