Problem #2: Nash Equilibrium with Continuous Strategies (8pts) Consider a game with continuous strategies, in which...
QUESTION 8 Consider a game with two players, players and player 2. Player 1's strategies are up and down, and player 2's strategies are left and right. Suppose that player 1's payoff function is such that for any combination of the players chosen strategies, player 1 always receives a payoff equal to 0. Suppose further that player 2's payoff function is such that no two combinations of the players' chosen strategies ever give player 2 the same payoff Choose the...
7. (10 points) Nash Equilibrium. See: Lectures 21-23 How to Slides (How to work our whether an equilibrium is efficient; How to find Nash equilibrium) Firm A and Firm B are trying to make decisions where each of their profits depend upon their decisions and the other firm's decisions, Each has 3 possible strategies. Firm A can choose "up". "middle" or "down" and firm B can choose "left","middle" or "right." Firm B Middle Left Firm A: 34 Firm B: S...
Q2 Contribution Game Consider the following game. There are four players. Each player i (wherei 1,2,3,4) si multaneously and independently selects her contribution s E [0, 10]. Each player gets a benefit related to all of the players choices of s,'s, but incurs a cost related to her own contribution s In particular, the payoff to each player i is given by: ul (s1 , s2, s3, s.) = si + s2 + s3 + 84-0.5s (a) Find best response...
1. Find the Nash equilibria of the two-player strategic game in which each players set of actions (strategies) is the set of nonnegative numbers and the players payoff functions are ui(a1, a2)- a1 (a2-a1) and u2 (a1, a2) = a2 (1-al-a2).
3. (30 pts) Consider the following game. Players can choose either left () or 'right' (r) The table provided below gives the payoffs to player A and B given any set of choices, where player A's payoff is the firat number and player B's payoff is the second number Player B Player A 4,4 1,6 r 6,1 -3.-3 (a) Solve for the pure strategy Nash equilibria. (4 pta) (b) Suppose player A chooses l with probability p and player B...
7. Solving for dominant strategies and the Nash equilibrium Suppose Sam and Teresa are playing a game in which both must simultaneously choose the action Left or Right. The payoff matrix that follows shows the payoff each person will earn as a function of both of their choices. For example, the lower-right cell shows that if Sam chooses Right and Teresa chooses Right, Sam will receive a payoff of 5 and Teresa will receive a payoff of 3. Teresa Left...
Consider the following extensive-form game with two players, 1
and 2.
a). Find the pure-strategy Nash equilibria of the game. [8
Marks]
b). Find the pure-strategy subgame-perfect equilibria of the
game. [6 Marks]
c). Derive the mixed strategy Nash equilibrium of the subgame.
If players play this mixed Nash equilibrium in the subgame, would 1
player In or Out at the initial mode? [6 Marks]
[Hint: Write down the normal-form of the subgame and derive the
mixed Nash equilibrium of...
