3.6. Consider a first-price, sealed-bid auction in which the bid- ders' valuations are independently and uniformly distributed on (0,1). Show that if there are n bidders, then the strategy of bid- ding (n-1)/n times one's valuation is a symmetric Bayesian Nash equilibrium of this auction.

This question refers to a second-price, simultaneous bid auction with n > 1 bidders. Assume that the bidders' valuations are 1, ,... where > > ... > >0. Bidders simultaneously submit bids, and the winner is the one who has the...
Three (3) bidders participate in a first price, sealed bid auction satisfying all the assumptions of the independent private values model. Each knows his own value v ∈ [0, 1], but does not know anyone else's, and so must form beliefs. Suppose everyone thinks it is more likely a rival's value is high than low. Specifically, each player believes any other player's value is distributed on [0, 1] according to the cumulative distribution function F(v) = v3, and this is...
Second Price sealed bid-auction: Assume n players are bidding in an auction in order to obtain an indivisible object. Denote by vi the value player i attaches to the object; if she obtains the object at the price p her payoff is vi −p. Assume that the players’ valuations of the object are all different and all positive; number the players 1 through n in such a way that v1 > v2 > · · · > vn > 0....
usion (24 points) Two firms are playing a repeated Bertrand game infinitely, each with the same marginal cost 100. The market demand function is P-400-Q. The firm who charges the lower price wins the whole market. When both firms charge the same price, each gets 1/2 of the total market. I. Coll A. (6 points) What price will they choose in the stage (only one period) Nash equilibrium? What price will they choose if in the stage game (only one...
