LP-Based Covering Games with Low Price of Anarchy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We design a new class of vertex and set cover games, where the price of anarchy bounds match the best known constant factor approximation guarantees for the centralized optimization problems for linear and also for submodular costs.

The price of anarchy of finite congestion games

open access: yesProceedings of the thirty-seventh annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing, 2005
We consider the price of anarchy of pure Nash equilibria in congestion games with linear latency functions. For asymmetric games, the price of anarchy of maximum social cost is Θ(√N), where N is the number of players. For all other cases of symmetric or asymmetric games and for both maximum and average social cost, the price of anarchy is 5/2.

Price of anarchy is maximized at the percolation threshold

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2015
When many independent users try to route traffic through a network, the flow can easily become suboptimal as a consequence of congestion of the most efficient paths. The degree of this suboptimality is quantified by the so-called "price of anarchy" (POA), but so far there are no general rules for when to expect a large POA in a random network.

Stability vs. optimality in selfish ring routing [PDF]

open access: yes
We study the asymmetric atomic selfish routing in ring networks, which has diverse practical applications in network design and analysis. We are concerned with minimizing the maximum latency of source-destination node-pairs over links with linear ...

Efficiency analysis of load balancing games with and without activation costs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper, we study two models of resource allocation games: the classical load-balancing game and its new variant involving resource activation costs.

Interplay between security providers, consumers, and attackers: a weighted congestion game approach [PDF]

open access: yes
Network users can choose among different security solutions to protect their data. Those solutions are offered by competing providers, with possibly different performance and price levels.

Robust Price of Anarchy for Atomic Games with Altruistic Players [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We study the inefficiency of equilibria for various classes of games when players are (partially) altruistic. We model altruistic behavior by assuming that player i's perceived cost is a convex combination of 1-\beta_i times his direct cost and \beta_i ...
