Asterix and Obelix go hunting. They can either choose to hunt a boar or hunt a rabbit. Each one chooses their action (to hunt boar or rabbit), without observing the action chosen by the other. If either Asterix or Obelix hunts a boar, they must have the cooperation of their partner in order to succeed. Either Asterix or Obelix can hunt the rabbit by themselves, (i.e., alone, without cooperation from the partner), but a rabbit is worth less than a boar. If both individuals choose boar, both Asterix and Obelix get a payoff of 4 each. On the other hand if one individual choose boar and the other chooses rabbit, the person choosing boar gets a payoff of 1 and the individual choosing rabbit gets a payoff of 3. If both Asterix and Obelix choose rabbit, they get a payoff of 2 each. Formulate the above problem as a normal form game and solve for all pure and mixed strategy Nash equilibria. Show your result in a graph.

Two hunters must choose simultaneously between hunting a stag or hunting hares. If a hunter hunts hares, they catch a hare, and get a payoff of 3. If both hunters hunt the stag, they catch it, with a payoff of 5 to each. If a hunter tries to hunt the stag alone while the other hunter hunts hares, they do not succeed, and get a payoff of 0.

Exercise 1. Two individuals go out on a hunt. Each can individually choose to hunt a stag or hunt a hare. Each hunter must choose an action without knowing the choice of the other. The only way of hunting a stag is that both hunters choose to hunt it. An individual can always get a hare by himself, but a hare is worth less than a stag. To be precise, each hunter will get a payoff equal to two for...

3. Consider the following game. Two players can choose either to hunt a stag, or to hunt a hare. If a player hunts a stag, then they must have the other player’s cooperation in order to succeed. A player can hunt a hare by themself, but a hare is worth less than a stag. The following payoff matrix depicts this situation. What is the Nash equilibrium? Show your work. (10%

1. Two hunters set out to kill a stag. One has agreed to drive the stag through the forest, and the other to post at a place where the stag must pass. If both faithfully perform their assigned stag-hunting tasks, they will surely kill the stag and each will get an equal share of this large animal. During the course of the hunt, each hunter has an opportunity to abandon the stag hunt and pursue a hare. If a hunter...

3. Consider the following stag hunt game. Two hungry hunters go to the woods with the aim of catching a stag, or at least a hare. They can catch a stag only if both remain alert and devote their time and energy to catching it. Catching a hare is less demanding and does not require the cooperation of the other hunter. Each hunter prefers half a stag to a hare. Letting S denote the action of going after the stag,...

Two classmates, Jorge and George, are assigned an extra-credit group project. Each student can choose to Shirk or to Work. If one or more players choose Work, the project is completed and provides each with extra credit valued at 4 payoff units each. The cost of completing the project is 6 units of effort (measured in payoff units) that is divided equally among all players who choose to Work and this is subtracted from their payoff. If they both Shirk,...
