On the Price of Anarchy for flows over time [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2019 ACM Conference on Economics and Computation, 2019
Dynamic network flows, or network flows over time, constitute an important model for real-world situations where steady states are unusual, such as urban traffic and the Internet.

Price of anarchy for Mean Field Games [PDF]

open access: yesESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2019
The price of anarchy, originally introduced to quantify the inefficiency of selfish behavior in routing games, is extended to mean field games. The price of anarchy is defined as the ratio of a worst case social cost computed for a mean field game ...

The price of stochastic anarchy

open access: yes, 2008
. We consider the solution concept of stochastic stability, and propose the price of stochastic anarchy as an alternative to the price of (Nash) anarchy for quantifying the cost of selfishness and lack of coordination in games. As a solution concept, the

Intrinsic robustness of the price of anarchy [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the forty-first annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing, 2009
The price of anarchy, defined as the ratio of the worst-case objective function value of a Nash equilibrium of a game and that of an optimal outcome, quantifies the inefficiency of selfish behavior.

On the price of anarchy for high-price links [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We study Nash equilibria and the price of anarchy in the classic model of Network Creation Games introduced by Fabrikant, Luthra, Maneva, Papadimitriou and Shenker in 2003.

The asymptotic behavior of the price of anarchy

open access: yes, 2017
International audienceThis paper examines the behavior of the price of anarchy as a func- tion of the traffic inflow in nonatomic congestion games with multiple origin- destination (O/D) pairs. Empirical studies in real-world networks show that the price

Altruism and its impact on the price of anarchy [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Economics and Computation, 2014
We study the inefficiency of equilibria for congestion games when players are (partially) altruistic. We model altruistic behavior by assuming that player i’s perceived cost is a convex combination of 1−αi times his direct cost and αi times the social ...

The Price of Anarchy for Polynomial Social Cost [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2005
In this work, we consider an interesting variant of the well-studied KP model [KP99] for selfish routing that reflects some influence from the much older Wardrop [War52].

The Price of Anarchy of Cournot Oligopoly

open access: yes, 2005
Cournot oligopoly is typically inefficient in maximizing social welfare which is total surplus of consumer and producer. This paper quantifies the inefficiency of Cournot oligopoly with the term "price of anarchy", i.e.
