Q56 A Nash equilibrium is an outcome... a. Achieved by cooperation between players in the game. b. That is achieved by collusion where no party has an incentive to change their behaviour. c. Where each player's strategy depends on the behaviour of its opponents. d. That is achieved when players in the game have jointly maximized profits and divided those profits according to market share of each player. e. Where each player's best strategy is to maintain its present behaviour given the present behaviour of the other players.
What is the payoff for both players in the SPNE of this game?-(2,5)-(3,4)- (2,2)- (5,1)- (1,7)
Suppose that Alex and Bob complete the project sequentially. Assume that Alex decides his effort level and starts the project first, and then Bob decides his effort level and finishes the project. Present the extensive-form representation of the game (i.e., draw a decision tree which is also referred as the game tree). What is your prediction regarding the outcome of the game? Explain your prediction.
The first player can choose either U or D. If he chooses U, the second player has a choice of two strategies: L and R. If the second player moves L he obtains 1 and the first player gets 5. If the second player chooses R he obtains 2 units of payoff while the first player receives 1. Following a move D by the first player, both players engage in a simultaneous-move “Bach or Stravinsky” game (as it was described in class). Find the SPE of this game and write it down in a mixed and behavior form.
Explain all will rate what is always true for a pure nash equilibrium of a two-person non zero-sum game A.No player can improve his payoff with a unilateral change of strategy B. it is a Pareto maximum of the payoff matrix C. No player can worsen the payoff of his opponent with a unilateral change of strategy D. It gives worse payoffs to both players than any berge equilibrium
The mixed stratergy nash equalibrium consists of : the probability of firm A selecting October is 0.692 and probability of firm A selecting December is 0.309. The probability of firm B selecting October is 0.5 and probability of firm selecting December is 0.5. In the equilibrium you calculated above, what is the probability that both consoles are released in October? In December? What are the expected payoffs of firm A and of firm B in equilibrium?
on 8.1 Consider the following game: Player 1 A C D 7,6 5,8 0,0 Player 2 E 5,8 7,6 1, 1 F 0,0 1,1 4,4 a. Find the pure-strategy Nash equilibria (if any). b. Find the mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium in which each player randomizes over just the first two actions. c. Compute players' expected payoffs in the equilibria found in parts (a) and (b). d. Draw the extensive form for this game.
Suppose that there are only two firms in a market in which demand is given by p = 64 - Q, where Q is the total production of the two firms. Each firm can choose either a low level of output, qL = 15, or a high level of output, qH = 20. The unit cost of production for both firms is $4. Write down the normal-form representation of the game in which the strategic variable for each firm is the quantity of output and the firms make their choices simultaneously. Find the pure strategy Nash equilibrium of this game (quantities produced and market price).
Suppose t = 1 and c = 3/5, what is the payoff matrix for the game and state all Nash equilibria in pure strategies. Also find the unique Nash equilibirum in mixed strategies.
A) Focus on the strategic game at the lower-right side of the gametree. Find all the Nash equilibria for this subgame, including the mixed-strategyones. (b) Find all the subgame perfect equilibria for the entire game, allowingfor both pure and mixed strategies
Two firms bid for a contract to build a university building. Their construction costs are independent and uniformly drawn from [0, 1]. Both bidders submit their bids si- multaneously. The winner is the bidder who submits a lowest bid. Tie-breaking rule is random. This kind of bidding game is called "reverse auction" because the bidders bid for the right to provide a service and the winner is paid for the service. The FCC in 2017 has adopted similar auctions designed to repurpose spectrum for new uses. (a) In the first auction, the winner gets paid the loser's bid. For example, if the winner's cost is 0.5, his bid is 0.56, and the loser's bid is 0.6, then the winner gets the contract and the university pays the winner 0.6. The winner's net profit from the contract is 0.6-0.5 = 0.1. Solve for a Bayesian Nash equilibrium of this auction. What is the equilibrium bid of a firm bid if his cost is actually 0.5? (b) In the second auction, the winner gets paid the his/her own winning bid. For…
