Game-theoretical approach to minimum entropy productions in information thermodynamics

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
In a situation where each player has control over the transition probabilities of each subsystem, we game-theoretically analyze the optimization problem of minimizing both the partial entropy production of each subsystem and a penalty for failing to ...

Remarks on Nash equilibria for games with additively coupled payoffs (revision, previous title: An unusual Nash equilibrium result and its application to games with allocations in infinite dimensions) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
If the payoffs of a game are affine, then they are additively coupled. In this situation both the Weierstrass theorem and the Bauer maximum principle can be used to produce existence results for a Nash equilibrium, since each player is faced with an ...

RPM and Vertical Integration With Upstream Competition and Noncontractible Efforts

open access: yesThe Journal of Industrial Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study RPM and vertical integration in a common agency setting with two differentiated manufacturers and one retailer, where consumer demand depends on both the manufacturers' and retailer's noncontractible efforts. Under vertical separation, the adoption of maximum RPM by both manufacturers is an equilibrium and intensifies competition ...

Welfare implications of fair and accountable insurance pricing

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper introduces an empirical framework to evaluate the welfare implications of fair and accountable insurance pricing by modeling the complete pricing process, including demand and price optimization. Moving beyond traditional cost modeling, we analyze both discrimination‐related fairness criteria and broader regulatory constraints, such

A COURNOT-BERTRAND MODEL USING VARIOUS PRODUCTS [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the University of Oradea: Economic Science, 2019
Imperfect competition represent a known issue on modern economic analysis. Monopoly case classical induce a worse solution for consumer side but in the oligopoly competition scenario it will be possible to obtain a solution close to perfect competition ...
