The Weak Core, Partition‐Based Universal Stability, and Their Risk Associations Through A Partial Order

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 810-835, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We are concerned with the stability of a transferable‐utility cooperative (TU) game. First, the concept of core can be weakened so that the blocking of changes is limited to only those with multilateral backings. This principle of consensual blocking, as well as the traditional core‐defining one of unilateral blocking and one straddling in ...

Pairwise Imitation and Tournament Graphs

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 937-955, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates strategic dynamics under the behavioral rule of pairwise interact and imitate (PII), which requires minimal information and emphasizes outperforming opponents in pairwise interactions. We characterize PII using weak tournament graphs and, for a broad class of dynamics, establish a one‐shot stability result for ...
