- 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.A strategy for player 1 is a value for x1 from the set X. Similarly, a strategyfor player 2 is a value for x2 from the set X. Player 1’s payoff is V1(x1, x2) =5 + x1 - 2x2 and player 2’s payoff is V2(x1, x2) = 5 + x2 - 2x1.a. Assume that X is the interval of real numbers from 1 to 4 (including 1and 4). (Note that this is much more than integers and includes such numbers as 2.648 and 1.00037). Derive all Nash equilibria.b. Now assume that the game is played infinitely often and a player’s payoff is the present value of his stream of single-period payoffs, where dis the discount factor.(i) Assume that X is composed of only two values: 2 and 3; thus, aplayer can choose 2 or 3, but no other value. Consider the followingsymmetric strategy profile: In period 1, a player chooses the value 2. In period t(≥2), a player chooses the value 2. In period a player chooses the value 2 if both players chose 2 in all previous periods; otherwise, she chooses the value 3.

- Splitting Pizza: You and a friend are in an Italian restaurant, and the owner offers both of you a free eight-slice pizza under the following condition. Each of you must simultaneously announce how many slices you would like; that is, each player i ∈ 1, 2 names his desired amount of pizza, 0 ≤ si ≤ 8. If s1 + s2 ≤ 8 then the players get their demands (and the owner eats any leftover slices). If s1 + s2 > 8, then the players get nothing. Assume that you each care only about how much pizza you individually consume, and the more the better.What outcomes can be supported as pure-strategy Nash equilibria?When a famous painting becomes available for sale, it is often known which museum or collector will be the likely winner. Yet, the auctioneer actively woos representatives of other museums that have no chance of winning to attend anyway. Suppose a piece of art has recently become available for sale and will be auctioned off to the highest bidder, with the winner paying an amount equal to the second highest bid. Assume that most collectors know that Valerie places a value of $15,000 on the art piece and that she values this art piece more than any other collector. Suppose that if no one else shows up, Valerie simply bids $15,000/2=$7,500 and wins the piece of art. The expected price paid by Valerie, with no other bidders present, is $________.. Suppose the owner of the artwork manages to recruit another bidder, Antonio, to the auction. Antonio is known to value the art piece at $12,000. The expected price paid by Valerie, given the presence of the second bidder Antonio, is $_______. .You are given the payoff matrix below. B1 B2 B3 A1 1 Q 6 A2 P 5 10 A3 6 2 3 a. Determine the range of values of P and Q in order for Player A to choose strategy A2 and PlayerB to choose strategy B2.b. Solve the problem in the perspective of the opponent. Are the ranges the same?c. What are the values of the game for (a) and (b)?

The minimum value of θ = _____ The maximum value of θ = _____Consider two bidders – Alice and Bob who are bidding for a second-hand car. Each of them knows the private value she/he assigns to the car, but does not know the exact value of others. It is common knowledge that the value of other bidders is randomly drawn from a uniform distribution between 0 and $10000. Assume that Alice values the car at $8500 and Bob values the car at $4500. a) If Alice and Bob participated in the second-price sealed bid auction, what would they bid and what would be the result of the auction? Explain your answer. b) If they participate instead in a first-price sealed bid auction, what would they bid and what would be the result of the auction? Explain your answer. c) Calculate and compare the revenue of the seller in the above situations. Which type of auction should the seller use? Explain your answerConsider a game where there is a $2,520 prize if a player correctly guesses the outcome of a fair 7-sided die roll.Cindy will only play this game if there is a nonnegative expected value, even with the risk of losing the payment amount.What is the most Cindy would be willing to pay?
- Someone at a party pulls out a $100 bill and announces that he is going to auction it off. There are n=10 people at the partywho are potential bidders. The owner of the $100 bill puts forth the following procedure: All bidders simultaneously submit a written bid. Only the highest bidders pay their bid (assuming that the highest bid is positive). If m people submit the highest bid, then each receives 1/m of the $100. Each person’s strategy set is {0,1,2,...,1000}{0,1,2,...,1000} so bidding can go as high as $1,000. The payoff of a player bidding bi is:0 if bi < max{b1,b2,…,bn},and 100/m − bi if bi = max {b1,b2,…,bn}where,m is the number of bidders whose bid equals max{b1,...,bn}. How many pure-strategy Nash equilibria does this game have? 1) 0 2) 1 3) 4 4) More than 4.Mohamed and Kate each pick an integer number between 1 and 3 (inclusive). They make their choices sequentially.Mohamed is the first player and Kate the second player. If they pick the same number each receives a payoff equal to the number they named. If they pick a different number, they get nothing. What is the SPE of the game? a. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate is indifferent between 1, 2 and 3. b. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate chooses 1 if Mohamed chooses 1, 2 if Mohamed chooses 2, and 3 if Mohamed chooses 3. c. Mohamed chooses 1 and Kate chooses 1 if Mohamed chooses 1, 2 if Mohamed chooses 2 and 3 if Mohamed chooses 3. d. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate chooses 3.In the question that follows, n refers to the number of people rather than a fraction of the population. In the land of Pampa, living in the countryside gives you a fixed payoff of 100 (Pampa has lots of land), while living in a city gives you a payoff that first increases with the number of people living in the city (agglomeration), and then declines after the number of people goes above a certain threshold (congestion). Let us write this payoff as r = 20n - n²/2, where n is the number of city dwellers in that particular city. (a) Let N be the total population in Pampa. If only one city can exist in the entire country, trace out the set of equilibria (i.e., population allocations between countryside and city) as N varies from 0 to infinity. (b) Now suppose that new cities can come up, each yielding exactly the same payoff function as above. Focus on the equilibrium in each case with the maximum possible city dwellers, and explain how this equilibrium will move with the overall…
