Acceptable-and-attractive Approximate Solution of a Continuous Non-Cooperative Game on a Product of Sinusoidal Strategy Functional Spaces

Foundations of Computing and Decision Sciences, 2021
A problem of solving a continuous noncooperative game is considered, where the player’s pure strategies are sinusoidal functions of time. In order to reduce issues of practical computability, certainty, and realizability, a method of solving the game ...

Knowledge Spillover Network and Optimal R&D Policy in Oligopoly

Journal of Public Economic Theory, Volume 28, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper studies optimal R&D policy in a Cournot oligopoly with network‐based knowledge spillovers. Generalizing the standard two‐stage model of Kamien et al. (1992), we characterize the socially optimal policy by decomposing the net externality of private innovation into three channels: the market expansion effect, direct knowledge ...

Cooperative and Non‐Cooperative Solutions in a Dynamic Model of Forest Management

Natural Resource Modeling, Volume 39, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops a deterministic finite‐horizon bioeconomic control model linking forest biomass, biodiversity, cumulative harvesting pressure, and disturbance‐motivated expected biodiversity losses. Biodiversity is modeled as a productive state variable that feeds back into biomass growth, while cumulative harvesting pressure records the ...

Women's Empowerment and Intra‐Household Bargaining Power

Review of Development Economics, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 1643-1656, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We assess the effectiveness of the Abbreviated Women's Empowerment in Agriculture Index (A‐WEAI) in predicting intra‐household bargaining power. We conducted a lab‐in‐the‐field experiment with agricultural households, where spouses made decisions about money allocations.

Multidimensional Evolution Effects on Non-Cooperative Strategic Games

Mathematics
In this study, we examine how the strategies of the players over multiple time scales impact the decision making, resulting payoffs and the costs in non-cooperative strategic games.

Smart Charging With Hourly Pricing as Policy Intervention: Reducing Costs and Grid Congestion for Promoting Electric Vehicles in Developing Countries

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 3472-3486, July 2026.
Smart charging with hourly pricing optimizes electric vehicle (EV) charging in developing countries, reducing EV owner costs by 30% and easing grid congestion. Using an agent‐based energy management system, the study shows dynamic pricing effectively shifts charging to off‐peak hours, enhancing grid stability and supporting sustainable EV adoption in ...

Cross‐Ownership and Welfare‐Inferior Price Competition with Relative Profit Delegation Contracts

Bulletin of Economic Research, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 559-572, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider management reward contracts based on relative profit performance under cross‐ownership and find nonequivalence of price and quantity competition. We also examine an endogenous choice of competition mode under unilateral cross‐ownership and show that the welfare‐inferior price competition can appear unless the product's ...

Existence of Generalized Nash Equilibrium in n-Person Noncooperative Games under Incomplete Preference

Journal of Function Spaces, 2018
To prove the existence of Nash equilibrium by traditional ways, a common condition that the preference of players must be complete has to be considered. This paper presents a new method to improve it.

Inertia Versus Adaptation: Relational Resilience in Buyer–Supplier Relationships Facing Extreme Disruption

Journal of Supply Chain Management, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 50-80, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This research introduces the concept of relational resilience, which reflects the dynamic capacity of a buyer–supplier relationship to absorb external shocks and continue its core function of exchange. Guided by structural inertia theory (SIT), the research explores how relationship age, exchange volume, and multiplexity contribute to ...

Improving social welfare in non-cooperative games with different types of quantum resources [PDF]

Quantum
We investigate what quantum advantages can be obtained in multipartite non-cooperative games by studying how different types of quantum resources can lead to new Nash equilibria and improve social welfare — a measure of the quality of an equilibrium. Two
