The Shannon expansion of a boolean function F about a variable p is given by
F(p, q, r) = p' * F(0, q, r) + p * F(1, q, r).
For our case F = (p --> (q --> r)) --> ((p --> q) --> (p --> r))
Thus our Shannon expansion about p is
F = p' * [(0 --> (q --> r)) --> ((0 --> q) --> (0 --> r))] + p * [(1 --> (q --> r)) --> ((1 --> q) --> (1 --> r))]
For ease of expression let's compute each summand separately, i.e.
p' * [(0 --> (q --> r)) --> ((0 --> q) --> (0 --> r))]
= p' * [(1) --> ((1) --> (1))] Since 0 --> x is equivalent to 1
= p' * [(1) --> (1)] Since 1 --> 1 is equivalent to 1
= p' * [1] Since 1 --> 1 is equivalent to 1
= p' Since 1*x is equivalent to x
Now, let's compute the second term.
p * [(1 --> (q --> r)) --> ((1 --> q) --> (1 --> r))]
= p * [(q --> r) --> (q --> r)] Since 1 --> x is equivalent to x
= p* [1] Since x --> x is equivalent to 1
= p Since 1*x is equivalent to x
Thus, F = p' + p = 1.
Similarly, compute the Shannon expansion about variables q and r. You will get F = 1. This is so because F is a tautology.

3. Cournot competition: The inverse demand for a homogeneous good is given by p(Q) = 100 - Q if Q< 100 and p(Q) = 0 if Q > 100, where p is the price in the market and Q > 0 is the total quantity supplied in the market. There are two firms, labeled 1 and 2, each of which produce the good at a constant marginal cost of 10 per unit. There are no fixed costs. Denoting the output...
