Data games. Sharing public goods with exclusion. [PDF]
Journal of Public Economic Theory, 2013 A group of agents considers collaborating on a project which requires putting together elements owned by some of them. These elements are pure public goods with exclusion i.e. nonrival but excludable goods like for instance knowledge, data or information,

Cheater-altruist synergy in immunopathogenic ecological public goods games [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2017 Much research has focused on the deleterious effects of free-riding in public goods games, and a variety of mechanisms that suppresses cheating behaviour. Here we argue that under certain conditions cheating behaviour can be beneficial to the population.

Public goods games in directed networks [PDF]
Games and Economic Behavior, 2021 Public goods games in undirected networks are generally known to have pure Nash equilibria, which are easy to find. In contrast, we prove that, in directed networks, a broad range of public goods games have intractable equilibrium problems: The existence of pure Nash equilibria is NP-hard to decide, and mixed Nash equilibria are PPAD-hard to find.

Unraveling Public Good Games [PDF]
Games, 2011 This paper provides experimental evidence on how players predict end-game effects in a linear public good game. Our regression analysis yields a measure of the relative importance of priors and signals on subjects’ beliefs on contributions and allows us to conclude that, first, the weight of the signal is relatively unimportant, while priors have a ...

Evolution of cooperation and consistent personalities in public goods games
Scientific Reports, 2021 The evolution of cooperation has remained an important problem in evolutionary theory and social sciences. In this regard, a curious question is why consistent cooperative and defective personalities exist and if they serve a role in the evolution of ...

Institution Formation in Public Goods Games [PDF]
American Economic Review, 2006 Sanctioning institutions are of utmost importance for overcoming free-riding tendencies and enforcing outcomes that maximize group welfare in social dilemma situations. We investigate, theoretically and experimentally, the endogenous formation of institutions in public goods provision.

Probabilistic participation in public goods games [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2007 Voluntary participation in public goods games (PGGs) has turned out to be a simple but effective mechanism for promoting cooperation under full anonymity. Voluntary participation allows individuals to adopt a risk-aversion strategy, termed loner. A loner refuses to participate in unpromising public enterprises and instead relies on a small but fixed ...
