Optimal energy management of water networks under quality conditions
Abstract In the context of sustainability, which has become fundamental today, we aim to optimize (reduce) the energy consumption due to the use of pumps that bring water from all the different reservoirs to the nodes of the distribution network. The proposed model allows us, thanks to the use of smart meters and new 5G technologies, to determine the ...

Noncooperative Foundations of Stable Sets in Voting Games. [PDF]
This note investigates the noncooperative foundations of von Neumann-Morgenstern (vN-M) stable sets in voting games. To do so, we study subgame perfect equilibria of a noncooperative legislative bargaining game, based on underlying simple games.

On the Provision of International Public Goods in Dynamic Open Economies
ABSTRACT This study develops a dynamic two‐country model with an international public good, the stock of which positively affects the productivity of the private‐goods sectors in each country, and the evolution of the stock is determined by each country's voluntary contribution in the form of public investment. Two scenarios are examined: A cooperative

The Role of Individual Intertemporal Transfers in Dynamic TU-Games [PDF]
Dynamic TU-games are considered which consist of a finite player set, a finite sequence of TU-games and a profile of intertemporal utility functions. At every stage a (restrictively) additive solution is applied to the TU-game, which results in a stream ...

Learning Optimal Crowd Evacuation from Scratch Through Self‐Play
How would a superintelligent crowd behave in emergencies? This study develops an approach using multiagent deep reinforcement learning combined with self‐play to discover optimal evacuation strategies for pressure‐aware agents. The model learns behaviors such as queuing and zipper‐merging that significantly surpass traditional approaches in fatality ...
