RPM and Vertical Integration With Upstream Competition and Noncontractible Efforts
The Journal of Industrial Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study RPM and vertical integration in a common agency setting with two differentiated manufacturers and one retailer, where consumer demand depends on both the manufacturers' and retailer's noncontractible efforts. Under vertical separation, the adoption of maximum RPM by both manufacturers is an equilibrium and intensifies competition ...

Signals, Red Lines, and Collision: The Israel‐Iran Spiral and US Intervention
Middle East Policy, EarlyView.Abstract The Iran War erupted in February 2026 without UN authorization, and Washington's rationales—Iranian nuclear ambitions, missile capacity, and proxy threats—map more closely onto Israeli than US security interests.

Interpetative thinking and impression formation in a prisoner's dilemma game. [PDF]
In three experiments we examined the notion that interpretative thinking guides impression formation when playing a prisoner's dilemma game. In a first experiment, we demonstrated that an interpretation goal is spontaneously triggered upon receiving ...

On the Evolutionary Edge of Altruism: A Game-Theoretic Proof of Hamilton's Rule for a Simple Case of Siblings [PDF]
We offer a game-theoretic proof of Hamilton's rule for the spread of altruism. For a simple case of siblings, we show that the rule can be derived as the outcome of a one-shot prisoner's dilemma game between siblings.Evolution of altruism, Hamilton's ...

Proposal for optically realizing quantum game
, 2004 We present a proposal for optically implementing the quantum game of the two-player quantum prisoner's dilemma involving nonmaximally entangled states by using beam splitters, phase shifters, cross-Kerr medium, photon detector and the single-photon ...

Is a More‐Than‐Minimal State the Meta‐Utopia?
Philosophy &Public Affairs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Part III of Anarchy, State, and Utopia defends the minimal state as a framework for utopia. On Bader's reconstruction, this defense contains two justificatory strands: a common ground argument, which shows the minimal state to be compatible with the widest range of utopian associations, and an approximation argument, which holds it to be the ...
