The Ultimatum Game in complex networks [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2009 We address the problem of how cooperative (altruistic-like) behavior arises in natural and social systems by analyzing an ultimatum game in complex networks. Specifically, three types of players are considered: (a) empathetic, whose aspiration level and offer are equal, (b) pragmatic, who do not distinguish between the different roles and aim to obtain

Mutation-selection Equilibria for the Ultimatum Game [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 Rand et al. (2013) present a finite population model to explain the evolution of fair behaviour in the ultimatum game. They find that mutation and selection can balance at population states that resemble human behaviour, in that responders on average evolve sizable thresholds for rejection, and proposers make proposals that on average more than meet ...

Economic Harmony: An Epistemic Theory of Economic Interactions
Games, 2017 We propose an epistemic theory of micro-economic interactions, termed Economic Harmony. In the theory, we modify the standard utility, by changing its argument from the player’s actual payoff, to the ratio between the player’s actual payoff and his or ...

The Ultimatum Game and the Law of Demand [PDF]
The Economic Journal, 1995 This note shows that experimental results of the ultimatum game are consistent with and can be explained by the law of demand. Salaries of major league baseball players and estimates of their net marginal revenue while the reserve clause was in effect impressively confirm this assertion.
