Democracy and Compliance in Public Goods Games [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
I investigate if, how, and why the effect of a contribution rule in a public goods game depends on how it is implemented: endogenously chosen or externally imposed. The rule prescribes full contributions to the public good backed by a nondeterrent sanction for those who do not comply.

Competition of tolerant strategies in the spatial public goods game

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
Tolerance implies enduring trying circumstances with a fair and objective attitude. To determine whether evolutionary advantages might be stemming from diverse levels of tolerance in a population, we study a spatial public goods game, where in addition ...

Partner selection supports reputation-based cooperation in a Public Goods Game [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In dyadic models of indirect reciprocity, the receivers' history of giving has a significant impact on the donor's decision. When the interaction involves more than two agents things become more complicated, and in large groups cooperation can hardly ...

Triggers for cooperative behavior in the thermodynamic limit: a case study in Public goods game

open access: yes, 2019
In this work, we aim to answer the question: what triggers cooperative behavior in the thermodynamic limit by taking recourse to the Public goods game. Using the idea of mapping the 1D Ising model Hamiltonian with nearest neighbor coupling to payoffs in ...

Religious Identity and Economic Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes
We randomly vary religious identity salience in laboratory subjects to test how identity salience contributes to six hypothesized links from prior literature between religious identity and economic behavior. We find that religious identity salience makes

Seven rules to avoid the tragedy of the commons

open access: yes, 2018
Cooperation among self-interested players in a social dilemma is fragile and easily interrupted by mistakes. In this work, we study the repeated $n$-person public-goods game and search for a strategy that forms a cooperative Nash equilibrium in the ...

PREFERENTIAL OPPONENT SELECTION IN PUBLIC GOODS GAMES [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Complex Systems, 2012
This paper discusses preferential opponent selection in public goods games. It is shown that a preference to play with successful opponents strongly enhances the prevalence of cooperation. The finding is robust on spatial grids and heterogeneous networks.

The Core of Games with Stackelberg Leaders [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper considers cooperative game theoretic settings in which forming coalitions can act as Stackelberg leaders. We de fine a value function which modi fies the gamma-value function (Hart & Kurz, 1983, Chander & Tulkens, 1997) by letting members of ...

Voting on Thresholds for Public Goods: Experimental Evidence [PDF]

open access: yes
Introducing a threshold in the sense of a minimal project size transforms a public goods game with an inefficient equilibrium into a coordination game with a set of Pareto-superior equilibria.
