Biased News Media and the Swing Voter's Decision in Repeated Games

open access: yesThe Manchester School, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 469-482, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider a monopolistic, biased news media platform that attempts to influence the decision of swing voters with cheap talk when voting is costly and abstaining is an option. First, we demonstrate that, while no fully communicative equilibrium exists in a stage game, a partially truth‐revealing mixed‐strategy equilibrium exists.

Do soccer players play the mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium? [PDF]

open access: yes
Mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium (MSNE) is a commonly-used solution concept in game-theoretic models in various fields in economics, management, and other disciplines, but the experimental results whether the MSNE predicts well actual play in games is ...

Mutual Outsourcing in a Vertically Related Market With Strategic Environmental Corporate Social Responsibility

open access: yesThe Manchester School, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 571-588, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study considers mutual outsourcing firms in a vertically related market and examines their strategic adoption of environmental corporate social responsibility (ECSR) activities. We demonstrate that ECSR adoption reduces mutual outsourcing firms' profits, resulting in a prisoner's dilemma situation, but enhances welfare regardless of ...

Nash equilibrium existence for some discontinuous games [PDF]

open access: yes
Answering to an open question of Herings et al. (see [3]), one extends their fixed point theorem to mappings defined on convex compact subset of Rn, and not only polytopes.

Extremal Choice Equilibrium: Existence and Purification with Infinite-Dimensional Externalities [PDF]

open access: yes
We prove existence and purification results for equilibria in which players choose extreme points of their feasible actions in a class of strategic environments exhibiting a product structure.

A formula for Nash equilibria in monotone singleton congestion games [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper provides a simple formula describing all Nash equilibria in symmetric monotone singleton congestion games. Our approach also yields a new and short proof establishing the existence of a Nash equilibrium in this kind of congestion games without

A characterization of the existence of a pure-strategy Nash equilibrium

open access: yesA characterization of the existence of a pure-strategy Nash equilibrium
In this paper, we consider a non-cooperative n-person game in the strategic form. As is well known, the game has a mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium. While, it does not always have a pure-strategy Nash equilibrium. Wherein, Iimura (2003), and Sato and Kawasaki (to appear in Taiwanese J Math) provided a sufficient condition for the game to have a pure ...

Nash Equilibria of Games with a Continuum of Players [PDF]

open access: yes
We characterize Nash equilibria of games with a continuum of players (Mas-Colell (1984)) in terms of approximate equilibria of large finite games. For the concept of $(\epsilon,\epsilon)$ - equilibrium --- in which the fraction of players not $\epsilon$ -

Dynamic club formation with coordination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present a dynamic model of jurisdiction formation in a society of identical people. The process is described by a Markov chain that is defined by myopic optimization on the part of the players.

Congestion games with load-dependent failures: identical resources

open access: yes, 2009
We define a new class of games---congestion games with load-dependent failures (CGLFs). In a CGLF each player can choose a subset of a set of available resources in order to try and perform his task.
