Consider the Hawk–Dove situation shown here.
a. Show that an ESS uses hawk with probability 2/3.
b. In this chapter, we’ve only allowed a mutation to be of a single strategy.
Departing from that assumption, consider a small mutation in which
half of the mutants are hawks and half are doves (i.e., they use only
pure strategies). Determine whether the ESS in part (a) is immune to
this mutation; that is, determine whether the ESS has higher fitness
than that of each of these mutants.

- you and a friend decide to run a three mile race. If you agree to run together, you keep up with himfor the first mile, but you overexert yourself and run the last two miles at slower paces on your own. Tomake up for lost time, your friend runs the last two miles at a faster pace. Your mile times are 6:30, 7:00,and 7:30. Your friend’s times are 6:30, 6:00, and 6:00. If you both agree to run on your own, you run aconstant pace of 7:05 while your friend runs at a constant pace of 6:05. If you want to run together butyour friend wants to run solo, he runs his constant pace of 6:05. You, on the other hand, want to showhim that you can run faster, but you end up overexerting yourself after the first mile. You run times of6:20, 7:05, and 7:30. If he wants to run together but you do not, you both run at your pace of 7:05. Thissituation can be turned into an economic game, with the payoffs the overall race times. You each wantto run the fastest time you possibly can.(a) Who are the players in…In 1938, major powers met in Munich to discuss Germany’s demands to annex part of Czechoslovakia. Let us think of the issue as the proportion of Czechoslovak territory given to Germany. Possible outcomes can be plotted on a single dimension, where 0 implies that Germany obtains no territory and 1 implies that Germany obtains all of Czechoslovakia: Most countries at Munich (“Allies” for short) wish to give nothing to Germany: their ideal point is 0, which gives them utility of 1. Their worst possible outcome is for Germany to take all of Czechoslovakia; hence an outcome of 1 gives them utility of 0. In between these extremes, the Allies could propose a compromise, X, which gives them utility of 1 – X. The question for the Allies is whether to propose a compromise or fight a war with Germany, which they are sure will ensue if they offer nothing. If they propose a compromise and Germany accepts, they get a payoff of 1 – X. If they fight, they win with probability p and lose with…In 1938, major powers met in Munich to discuss Germany’s demands to annex part of Czechoslovakia.

- Consider the following two-player game.First, player 1 selects a number x≥0. Player 2 observes x. Then, simultaneously andindependently, player 1 selects a number y1 and player 2 selects a number y2, at which pointthe game ends.Player 1’s payoff is: u1(x; y1) = −3y21 + 6y1y2 −13x2 + 8xPlayer 2’s payoff is: u2(y2) = 6y1y2 −6y22 + 12xy2Draw the game tree of this game and identify its Subgame Perfect Nash Equilibrium.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?A backpacker gets stranded on an island, and rescue is about a week away. Two cannibals live on the island. The cannibals are not friendly to each other, and both regularly attempt to eat the other. Both cannibals would like to eat the backpacker, but as we all know, a big meal makes one tired and defenceless. In the event that one of them eats the backpacker, the other might strike and eat the eater. Hence, if choosing to eat the backpacker, there is a risk of being eaten oneself. If both of them show up to eat the backpacker, they are friendly enough to share and split the backpacker in half. Both cannibals have a less desirable, vegetarian, diet available on the island.Let eating the (entire) backpacker or cannibal give a payoff of 2. A vegetarian diet is worth 1. Being eaten gives a payoff of 0.a) Write down the normal form representation of the game between the two cannibals.b) The backpacker realizes that the cannibals (otherwise) are highly intelligent and rational beings.…
