Pure strategy Nash equilibrium points and the Lefschetz fixed point theorem [PDF]

International Journal of Game Theory, 1983
A pure strategy Nash equilibrium point existence theorem is established for a class ofn-person games with possibly nonacyclic (e.g. disconnected) strategy sets. The principal tool used in the proof is a Lefschetz fixed point theorem for multivalued maps, due to Eilenberg and Montgomery, which extends their better known. Eilenberg-Montgomery fixed point

Deepening the real options debate: Real options as dynamic optimization

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Is real option theory useful for management research? This topic was hotly debated two decades ago. Real options were said to be inapplicable to management research and to lack conceptual distinctiveness. Whereas responses to the claim about the non‐distinctiveness of real options were disparate, the concern about the theory's

Pure Bayesian Nash Equilibria for Bayesian Games with Multidimensional Vector Types and Linear Payoffs

Games
In this work, we study n-agent Bayesian games with m-dimensional vector types and linear payoffs, also called linear multidimensional Bayesian games. This class of games is equivalent with n-agent, m-game uniform multigames.

V2G Scaling for Electric Trucks From a Cyber‐Physical‐Social Perspective: Challenges and Pathways

Energy Internet, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Under the dual carbon strategy, electric trucks, as a key element in emission reduction within the transportation sector, can achieve a mutually beneficial situation for both the power system and the transportation system through vehicle‐to‐grid (V2G).

Social conformity and equilibrium in pure strategies in games with many players [PDF]

, 2002
We introduce a framework of noncooperative pregames, in which players are characterized by their attributes, and demonstrate that for all games with sufficiently many players, there exist approximate (e )Nash equilibria in pure strategies.

Seeing like a citizen: Experimental evidence on how empowerment affects engagement with the state

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Building a strong and effective state requires revenue. Yet, in many low‐income countries, citizens do not make formal payments to the state or forego engaging with the state altogether due to vulnerability to opportunistic demands by state agents. We study two randomized interventions in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, designed to

Bureaucrat assignments as instruments of political control: Theory and evidence from land administration officials in India

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates how politicians use the assignment of officials to geographical posts—a personnel system found in many countries—as a system of incentives to control, and possibly corrupt, bureaucratic behavior. The argument is developed with a matching model and tested with a nationwide survey of Indian officials who administer land ...

UAV-Assisted Mobile Edge Computing Task Offloading Based on Mixed-Strategy Games [PDF]

Hangkong bingqi
In a single UAV-assisted mobile edge computing system, in order to enable the UAV to serve all user devices in a large area, the large area can be divided into a plurality of sub-areas and the UAV can be set to fly between the sub-areas with a fixed ...

Collusion through debt and managers

Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigate the anticompetitive effects of debt financing and managerial incentives in the presence of managers incurring personal bankruptcy costs. We characterize the strategic value for firms' shareholders of resorting to debt and managerial incentives as complementary devices to sustain collusion among firms, when managerial bankruptcy ...
